A reader’s interest is piqued by Queen of Blood:
Sounds interesting. Not on Netflix, unfortunately. Plot is a novel idea. But what would be so hard about voluntarily donating blood for her to drink in order to get the first ever (?) alien contact back to earth? Seems worth the effort.
And they use blood plasma, conveniently on board the ship, to keep her alive for a while – but she seems to have a taste for the stuff right from the prey, apparently. Oh, did I mention she burned through her restraint ropes using laser beams from her eyes?
The Wikipedia entry indicates the director, Curtis Harrington, believed the classic Alien drew some inspiration from Queen of Blood. I did not find any corroborating statements from the director of Alien, though.
