Published

We’re all pretty stoked about Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant. The return of Xenomorphs to the Alien universe is something we can all agree upon is a welcome sight. You know what else is a welcome sight? Custom controllers for your Playstation 4.

The folks at XQGaming, who specialize in custom controller casings (like an NES motif for your PS4 and controllers, for example) have taken it upon themselves to create a custom DualShock 4 PS4 controller in a wicked send-up to Alien: Covenant, which they’ve posted progress shots on their Facebook page. According to the Netherlands-based company, “This kind of controller cost an upwards of € 1500, – and have 50+ hours work into them.”

The controllers themselves are still being created, but the company plans to post a video on their YouTube channel once the controllers are completed next month. In the meantime, we await Alien: Covenant, which hits theatres May 19th.

Props to BD reader “Dave” for the scoop!

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
