We’ve Got the Brand New ‘Alien: Covenant’ Trailer and It’s INSANE!

Published

Holy shit, you guys. Holy. Shit.

If you were bummed that Prometheus was less an Alien prequel and more of its own thing, well, let’s just say you’re going to be insanely happy with this year’s Alien: Covenant. Ridley Scott is back with a brand new installment in the saga that began in 1979, and this new trailer is honestly one of the coolest we’ve ever seen. I’m having a hard time even forming words right now.

The trailer, running 90-seconds long, plays out like a super intense trip through Hell itself, and it’s absolutely loaded with creatures both familiar and brand new. We already saw a Face Hugger in the previous trailer, which hit back in December, but this one also showcases the brand new Neomorph, a white-colored, fast-moving beast that is sure to scare the shit out of audiences.

And then, towards the end of the trailer, he arrives.

As we’ve recently reported, Alien: Covenant will feature one of the classic-style Xenomorphs we were first introduced to back in 1979, and goddamn does the beast look cooler than ever.

You also get to see Katherine Waterson being totally badass as new female heroine Daniels, who is very likely going to be giving Xeno-slayer Ellen Ripley a run for her money.

Enjoy. And try not to completely lose your mind.

Fox Just Released an Alien: Covenant Short Film That Introduces the Crew!

Bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world — whose sole inhabitant is the “synthetic” David (Michael Fassbender), survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition

Scott had previously promised to answer questions that left Prometheus viewers confused: “Covenant is really going to show you who did it and why.”

Alien: Covenant takes off for Paradise on May 19, 2017.

SCREAMBOX Investigates UFOs and Extraterrestrials: Several Documentaries Streaming Right Now!

Published

on

As someone who is obsessed with UFOS (or more recently known as UAPs) and the concept of extraterrestrials, I love a good documentary. Sightings have been on the rise since the 1940s, with the atomic bomb seemingly acting as a catalyst for new visitors. But what are these UFOs/UAPs? Is there an explanation or are they simply beyond our explanation? Why are they here? Who are they? How much do our governments know? The questions are endless and so are the documentaries that attempt to uncover the secrets behind decades of sightings and alleged confrontations.

Whether you’re a seasoned viewer or new to the rabbit hole, there’s always a handful of interesting documentaries to get your neurons firing and leave you with sleepless nights. SCREAMBOX is investigating with the addition of several docs, all streaming now on the Bloody Disgusting-powered service. Here’s the breakdown:

Aliens Uncovered: ET or Man-Made (2022): The crash of Roswell wasn’t meant for New Mexico. In 1947, a neighboring state had 3 major sightings that were swept under the rug.

Roswell (2021): This high-flying documentary examines the July 1947 crash of a United States Army Air Forces balloon at a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. Theories claim the crash was actually that of a flying saucer, but what is the truth?
