Alien: Romulus’ Horror Elements Make It Perfect For 4DX

For a movie set to lean into the feeling of being stalked and surprised by xenomorphs, it’s easy to imagine the value that aspect of 4DX can bring.
4DX also brings environmental effects into the movie theater, ensuring even more immersion for viewers.
