Beat the holiday crowds this Black Friday weekend when you and your closest friend or loved one will be the first on your block to see Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale, Oscilloscope Laboratories’ Amblin-esque children’s horror tale involving a slew of evil Santa Claus’. Bloody Disgusting has been provided with 35 PAIRS of tickets to a very special New York screening taking place in Manhattan this coming Saturday, November 30. Getting tickets is EASY, read on to see how.
Oscilloscope Laboratories is teaming up with the most popular horror websites to offer their New York readers a chance to see Jalmari Helander’s new dark fantasy film, RARE EXPORTS: A CHRISTMAS TALE for free, this November 30th at 8:00PM!

All you have to do is send an email to NYRSVP@oscilloscope.net with “BLOODY DISGUSTING” in the subject line – the first 35 entries will receive a confirmation email alerting them to the secretManhattan theater location!

Each invite includes a plus-one, so winners are advised to bring a friend and arrive early. All seating will be based on a strict first-come, first-served basis. No cameras or recording devices will be allowed at the screening.

Sitges Best Picture and Best Director-winner RARE EXPORTS: A CHRISTMAS TALE opens theatrically in New York City on December 3rd and in Los Angeles on December 10th, with a nationwide rollout to follow.

It’s the eve of Christmas in northern Finland, and an ‘archeological’ dig has just unearthed the real Santa Claus. But this particular Santa isn’t the one you want coming to town. When the local children begin mysteriously disappearing, young Pietari and his father Rauno, a reindeer hunter by trade, capture the mythological being and attempt to sell Santa to the misguided leader of the multinational corporation sponsoring the dig. Santa’s elves, however, will stop at nothing to free their fearless leader from captivity. What ensues is a wildly humorous nightmare – a fantastically bizarre polemic on modern day morality.

RARE EXPORTS: A CHRISTMAS TALE is a re-imagining of the most classic of all childhood fantasies, and is a darkly comic gem soon to be required perennial holiday viewing.

This advance screening of RARE EXPORTS: A CHRISTMAS TALE is presented courtesy of Oscilloscope Laboratories. For more info, visit www.oscilloscope.net

Two New Images from ‘Alien: Romulus’ Spotlight the Heroes and the Giger-Faithful Monster

Published

on

Fede Alvarez’s (Evil Dead, Don’t BreatheAlien: Romulus will be unleashed in theaters nationwide on August 16, and Entertainment Weekly brings us two new images today.

The first image you’ll find below gives us another fresh look at the film’s Xenomorph, with Alvarez promising the outlet that it’s the most H.R. Giger-faithful Xenomorph of them all.

Entertainment Weekly writes, “… Alvarez promises [the Xenomorph’s design] is closer to H.R. Giger’s original creation than any other iteration.” The late H.R. Giger was of course integral to Ridley Scott’s Alien, designing the iconic monster the franchise is centered on.

The other image you’ll find below gives us a look at two of the human characters from Alien: Romulus, Archie Renaux’s Tyler and Cailee Spaeny’s heroine Rain Carradine.

Head over to Entertainment Weekly for their full preview of the upcoming film.

Here’s the full official plot synopsis for Alvarez’s Alien: Romulus, which comes in the wake of Disney reviving the Predator franchise in spectacular fashion with last year’s Prey

“While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonizers come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe.”

Cailee Spaeny (The Craft: LegacyPacific Rim Uprisingleads the cast alongside Isabela Merced, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Spike Fearn and Aileen Wu.

Alien: Romulus takes place in between the first two films. It’s been described as “an original standalone feature,” one that “will focus on a group of young people on a distant world.” 

Fede Alvarez co-wrote the script with Rodo Sayagues (Evil Dead). Ridley Scott is on board as producer for the film, the first movie in the franchise to be released by Disney.
