‘Outlast 2’ Footage Goes On a Cornfield Chase

Published

on

Our first real look at Outlast 2 brings to mind the cop chase from Alan Wake, where the eponymous writer was forced to run through a dark forest unarmed and chased by the stray beams of light from his would-be captors.

Red Barrels puts the expected horror movie twist on this familiarly effective chase scene by dropping the player in a setting that seems intent on using every tool in the scary storytelling arsenal — the first video starts inside a house of gore nestled inside a creepy cornfield — to string a sequence of horrific events so they play out like an anarchic haunted attraction where your chances of escape seem frighteningly slim.

Looking at these two videos, it’s clear this game will be more of the Outlast we know and love, complete with intense chase sequence that get the blood pumping, or flowing, depending on whether or not you make it.

Outlast 2 releases this fall for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.

Here’s a look at the game’s eerie walk-in demo from PAX East this weekend.

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

Published

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.
