A far-fetched theory connecting two iconic horror franchises makes more sense than it should

A theory can come from out of nowhere and many times they are simply too far-fetched to take seriously, but once in a while there’s a theory that makes everyone scratch their heads. That’s what’s happening when a horror fan who said they were joking about Alien and The Thing threw out a theory on Reddit that actually works.

Alien is a movie that came out in 1979 starring Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, John Hurt, Veronica Cartwright, and Harry Dean Stanton and was directed by Ridley Scott. In it, viewers are introduced to a Xenomorph, an endoparasitoid extraterrestrial species that kills everyone on the spaceship except Weaver’s character who somehow survives. The film gave us the notorious scene when John Hurt is flailing on the table when all of a sudden, the alien bursts through his chest, grins at everyone, and then scurries away. The Xenomorph, played by Nigerian visual artist Bolaji Badejo, makes a return visit in the sequels Aliens, Alien 3, and Alien Resurrection as well as the film’s prequels Prometheus and Alien: Covenant.
