Netflix Revives Political Genre Series “Black Mirror”!
One of the greatest series I’ve ever seen is the UK “Black Mirror,” which bizarrely only has two seasons and a mind-fuck of a Christmas special starring “Mad Men’s” Jon Hamm.
The show is so good – seriously, it’s crazy good and socially relevant – that I couldn’t fathom the hold up on a third season.
While it’s still unclear what happened, Radio Times is reporting that Netflix has come aboard to produce the show’s third season!
The streaming giant is understood to have agreed terms with Brooker and his independent production company House of Tomorrow to make “multiple episodes” of the dystopian drama, according to sources involved in the negotiations.
The first two seasons consisted of three episodes, so it’s safe to say we’ll get at least a trio of new tales of social terror.
For those who are unacquainted, it’s basically a political “Twilight Zone” that ranges from stories about politicians being blackmailed into fucking a pig to a woman falling in love with a virtual resurrection of her deceased boyfriend.
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.
