Dave & Buster’s Has an ‘Alien: Covenant’ Arcade Game and Monster Drinks!

Let’s all get drunk and shoot aliens!

Ridley Scott’s polarizing Alien: Covenant (which I personally LOVED) is headed to Blu-ray on August 15, and American chain Dave & Buster’s is celebrating the home video release with a brand new arcade game that you won’t find anywhere else.

The new game is inspired by the movie, and it allows you to blast away Xenomorphs with a big ass space gun. Just like Ellen Ripley. Or… Danny McBride!

In addition to the exclusive new game, Dave & Buster’s has also rolled out a “Monster Isle” drink menu, which pairs pretty damn well with Alien: Covenant. The menu includes four different rum-based cocktails that come with sea monster glass decorations that you get to take home!

Drink monsters. Shoot monsters. Sounds like my kinda night.

‘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.
