"Alien: Romulus" was released over the summer to praise from critics for its visual and practical effects, which horrified, disgusted, and exhilarated audiences. Visual Effects Supervisor Eric Barba & FX Designer Alec Gillis were kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about their work on Fede Alvarez's entry in the long-running and beloved franchise, which you can listen to or watch below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now available to stream on Hulu and is up for your consideration in all eligible categories at this year's Academy Awards, including Best Visual Effects. Thank you, and enjoy!
