In Episode 160 of Jay of the Dead’s New Horror Movies, the Horror Avengers return for their weekly installment of ALIEN: EARTH (2025) with a review of Episode 006: “The Fly.” Due to some last-minute cancellations, Jay of the Dead is joined by Mackula (and later, Dr. Walking Dead), as well as the ever-colorful Kombat Karl “The Mad Irishman” from <a href= "https://moviepodcastweekly.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Movie Podcast Weekly</a> fame. Sadly, GregaMortis could not join us this week, but he will return next time. Warning: Major plot spoilers lie ahead! And yes, it wouldn’t be Alien Earth without strange metaphors and offbeat alien lore. Dr. Bishop interprets the fly-and-spider imagery as a nod to the show’s silicon-based “metal-eating” monstrosities, while the hosts debate the uneven maturing patterns of the synthetic children. Is Wendy / Marcy’s accelerated intellect genius writing or sloppy scripting? Jurassic Park comparisons bubble up, and Jay predicts that these hybrid kids may be every bit as dangerous — maybe even more so — than the five xenomorphs themselves! Speaking of xenomorphs, your hosts address the terminology of “face-hugger” in the “Alien” franchise and dissect face-hugger gestation with how it lines up with what we’ve seen in the “Alien: Romulus” timeline. This leads to a discussion of “Alien: Covenant’s” bio-engineered variants, host-dependent gestation windows, and whether Alien Earth is bending rules of the franchise. And before the episode ends, Jay of the Dead admits to having a Hulu error-code meltdown while Karl helpfully promotes a new DirecTV streaming bundle. And as it often does with these hopeful romantics, the conversation spirals briefly into Blu-ray hopes for Season 1 and the desperate wishes for a not-too-far-distant Season 2. Join us, we think you will love it! Note: This episode was recorded on September 11, 2025.
