Nothing can ever be truly scary again for straight men over, say, 19. Without superstitious dread or the intense fear of death caused by a truly joyful family life, having something to lose and protect, there is nothing to fear. We have the internet now. Almost nothing is left truly, purely unknown. Existential dread is the closest you can get to true, raw fear unless you are actually, personally, in current mortal real danger of dying.
The truth is, if a monster showed up, we'd destroy it quickly, no matter what. We'd drive it extinct.
The only reason we don't already do that with pedophiles and murdeerers is because we mistakenly consider them worth saving just for being human.

It's all about the pacing. In ALIEN we barely see the ALIEN (less than 4 mins of screen time) but when we do we linger on it and let tension build. Somehow it manages to not come off mega goofy and still somewhat scary.

ALIENS did quick cuts and showed the Queen in longer takes, letting the tension build.

But by far ALIEN ISOLATION wins for making the xenomorph genuinely top tier scary.

It's like that scene in JURASSIC PARK where the raptors are in the kitchen with the kids. You can create really great situations like that that play into the cat and mouse horror vibes.

Romulus turned the Xenomorphs into fodder again.

AVP was the last time a Xenomorph was built up to be scary on the big screen (fight me) and that came out in 2004.

I disliked star wars because there was a new race around every corner
the idea of the universe being mostly empty, and of mankind stumbling upon the ruins of a long-gone civilisation, was what drew me to the alien universe

Include lots of politics and make characters that are not individual people with their own unique ideas and opinions but are instead representative of entire demographics of people, and make one of those characters really dumb and the another one really smart and strong depending on which demographic you want to be angry and which one you want to be prideful.

Create a movie that ostensibly looks like a jokey netflix comedy movie, and market it that way. 4 couples go on an island retreat to a secluded resort. 1/3rd of the way through the movie they discover an alien egg in the basement and it infects one of the staff. The rest of the movie shifts from being a comedy movie to a horror movie. None of the advertisements for this film indicate it's anything by a dumb comedy film, the alien isnt even hinted at.

They already did. They made it a game: Alien Isolation. Now thay it's YOU who has to face your fear, gather your courage, and escape the xenomorph under stress, it's 100x scarier than all the movies combined. Most newbies to the game don't make it past the first level the xeno is introduced since they're too chickenshit to face it. You will never find that fear in a movie where audiences just sit back passively and mock the protagonist for being soooo stupid and not knowing the bad guy is right behind her!

Agreed. I'm not sure how much hope I have for Isolation 2. Blackout was horrible. The formula from the first game has been exhausted. It's going to need a new setting and new gameplay. Going to be very difficult to make it scary again and keep it that way.

Not really. The whole "durr jockeys are evil and it's a bioweapon" is an idea only fit for children. The whole idea of Alien was that there are ancient and dangerous things out there to stumble upon. This is older than the Jockeys, which were way more advanced than humans, and still fucked them up.

The game was good because it made you feel helpless. It was like the original Alien where it was more of a slasher flick. So that uncertainty and foreboding is a major element. You're hunted. Whereas in action focused ones the xeno is basically just a stock standard alien that gets blown away. There's no real tension there.
