Two Guys Reversed Halloween and It’s Great! [Halloween Treat]
Everyone knows that on Halloween you get to dress up and go house-to-house for the age-old tradition of trick or treating. You say your greetings, the person at the door marvels at your costume, you get some candy, and boom, you don’t have to deal with each other again. In a weird way, it’s the kid version of a successful one night stand.
But two pranksters (I actually don’t know if this constitutes a prank but it’s the closest I can think of off the top of my head) decided to turn things around this Halloween and give back to all the people who so selflessly gave. Their costume was two old ladies with shower caps on who went to neighborhood doors with their own door. When the homeowners opened their door, they were faced with another door that they were instructed to knock upon. That’s when the two altruists would open the door and offer their own candy as a treat.
It’s such a cool idea and it’s something I really want to do next year. The fun part of this is that it actually offers a trick as well as a treat, only both are harmless and completely good natured. Plus, you still get to dress up as whatever you want!
While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
