Uncork’d is Releasing an “Alien” Film
Here they come, films using “Alien” in the title to try and trick idiots at Redbox into renting it.
Uncork’d Entertainment shared with THR first images from the hilariously titled Alien: Reign of Man, which is an obvious bait and switch for people looking forward to Alien: Covenant.
This film, which looks impressive in scope for an independent production:
“Centers on a group of people who get stranded on a distant planet and come face-to-face with deadly extraterrestrials.”
Justin Price is directing the film.
Uncork’d Entertainment is planning on releasing it this summer.
Are you ready to go back?
After a record-breaking box office run and an extended cut re-release, A24 and director Kane Parsons’ Backrooms is heading home to Digital.
Backrooms will be available to rent or buy this Tuesday, July 14.
In the film, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars in Backrooms as the owner of Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire, who discovers a strange doorway in the basement of the furniture showroom. He sets out to explore the mysterious, liminal space, walking headfirst into a creepypasta nightmare.
Renate Reinsve (A Different Man) also stars in Backrooms.
Will Soodik wrote the screenplay.
I wrote in my review, “Backrooms is at once complex and sparse, but never repetitive. It might be set in 1990, but it effectively captures modern anxieties and isolation in a way that frequently makes your skin crawl. While the journey ultimately loses steam by its cryptic end, Parsons’ visual representation of the human psyche disturbs like no other.”
YouTube prodigy Kane Parsons makes his feature directorial debut based on his creepypasta-inspired video series, which debuted in 2022 and has amassed over 190 million views to date.
