Published

on

The PlayStation Store’s two week-long Summer Sale went live today, and it’s definitely worth checking out, especially if you fancy horror games of the old school persuasion. I might even go so far as to say the dino-sized discounts it’s rayning upon us will leave your wallet feeling slender.

Yeah, I know I’m the worst.

Before you click away in disgust, let me make it up to you with this quick recap of the horror game deals Sony has for us this week.

Bloodrayne (PS3) — $2.00 (PS Plus) / $3.00 (Sale price)
Bloodrayne 2 (PS3) — $2.00 (PS Plus) / $3.00 (Sale price)
Dino Crisis (PS3, PSP, VITA) — $$2.40 (PS Plus) / $3.00 (Sale price)
Dino Crisis 2 (PS3, PSP, VITA) — $$2.40 (PS Plus) / $3.00 (Sale price)

A stupid number of movies are also on sale, including Maggie ($8.99), Predator ($5.99), Predators ($5.99) and Willow Creek ($4.99). The rest can be found on the PlayStation Blog.

Return next Tuesday where I’ll be doing this all over again, sans that god-awful opener.

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

Published

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.
