YOU Can Help a Young Boy Battling Brain Cancer Have a Happy Halloween
A little kindness will go a long way for one young Halloween lover this year.
Seven-year-old Brock Chadwick was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer earlier this year, which he’s been valiantly fighting since March. As it turns out, Brock happens to be a huge fan of Halloween, and his family wants YOUR help in making sure he has a happy one this year.
In an effort to cheer him up and put his mind in a happier place, Brock’s family has opened up their mailbox to anyone and everyone, dubbing the month “Brocktober” and asking that anyone who’s feeling giving send along a simple Halloween card to keep Brock smiling throughout the month.
“It’s been really hard, but he’s a really tough little guy,” Brock’s mom told WGME 13. “Ya know, it’s people sending in cards, candy, pictures… he’s totally enjoying it. It’s kind of like Christmas in October. He and his sisters are just overjoyed with everything. It’s so comforting to see that he’s not always hurting.”
If you’d like to send a little Halloween cheer to Brock, you can mail cards, decorations, candy or anything else to: 11 McKenney Drive, Biddeford, ME 04005.
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.
