Official ‘Alien: Covenant’ Images Prepare for a Backburster!
Chestburster or backburster? The red band trailer for Alien: Covenant just dropped and we’re pretty sure that Ridley Scott is flipping the Xenomorph birth on its head.
We were able to get our hands on three official images, one of which shows Scott directing Jussie Smollett; another has our new Ripley, Katherine Waterston (Inherent Vice, Jobs, The Babysitters), exposed in a field and seemingly awaiting some sort of attack; the last shot has the wonderful Amy Seimetz (A Horrible Way to Die, “The Killing”) freaking out as something is about to burst out of Goran D. Kleut’s (?) back (see above). Carmen Ejogo doesn’t appear to know just how bad things are about to get…
In ‘Alien Covenant’: 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.
Alien: Covenant is set for release on May 19, 2017.
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
