Race to the Death with ‘Coffin Dodgers’ on March 13th
Tired of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe? Want a kart racer in the vein of Road Rash with a horror twist? You might be interested in checking out Wales Interactive and Milky Tea Studios’ Coffin Dodgers, which is headed to the Nintendo Switch on March 13th.
The game is more of a lighthearted affair, as the Grim Reaper himself has taken up residence in a retirement village called Sunny Pines, looking to harvest some souls. Players will choose from one of seven of the residents as their racer, each with their own unique mobility scooter. Armed with a variety of upgradable homemade weapons and gadgets, the player must avoid losing to the Reaper and his zombie minions.
Coffin Dodgers includes a selection of 13 unique tracks, a 2-4 player local multiplayer mode, a Story Mode, a “Crazy Granddad” Mode where you race against the clock in the entire Sunny Pines district, and the ability to customize your racer’s scooter. Yeah, it’s not the gorefest of Carmageddon or the intensity of Twisted Metal, but sometimes you just want something light.
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.
