"Ridley Scott says hard R rating for Alien: Covenant. In a backstage interview following the Golden Globes where Ridley Scott’s recent science fiction The Martian came away with 2 awards, Ridley Scott commented that he would be aiming for a Hard R rating for the Prometheus sequel, Alien: Covenant. Matt Damon won “Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy” and The Martian took home “Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy”.

When a reporter commented on fans being interested in the horror aspect of the Alien series, Ridley Scott responded “that’s why I’m doing it. I’m going to do pretty Hard R.” He further elaborates that he wants to do a scene with the same sort of impact that Alien’s original chestburst scene had but something “much worse.”

He also mentions that two weeks ago saw he “all of the south island of New Zealand in two days.” There’s a strong possability that this was whilst scouting for locations for Alien: Covenant."

It is going to be very interesting to see how they can Top the Orginal Chest Buster Scene... i think it depends on audience in general but for me, once you have seen the traditional scene played out in various Spin Offs and Sequels and even watching the Original over and over.. i myself thing they are going to have to pull off something different, or special in order to  reproduce a moment like the very First Time we saw Kane's Chest Buster.

But its nice to see Ridley wishes to try and scare and shock people again, and maybe Covenant is going to go for more of the Horror route than Action or Mystery based movie.

The chest busting has been done a lot of times so they should try something different. It is not that the chest busting is lame it is just that we have seen it before. A head-busting would be cool with the alien exploding from the head.
