Ed Boon Shows Off Some Rare Behind The Scenes Footage From ‘Mortal Kombat 3’
Getting insight into the making of a classic game is always welcome. Nowadays there’s lots of behind the scenes videos and anecdotes from developers before the game is even launched, but it wasn’t always that open.
Ed Boon, the man behind many gore-soaked memories with the Mortal Kombat series, recently shared some rare behind the scenes footage of 1995’s Mortal Kombat 3.
The footage, which Boon shared on Twitter courtesy of Neogamer, shows the actors who would go on to be motion-captured for the full game, in full costume on the set. There’s lots of posing, goofing off, and replication of in-game moves to see in the 2 minute plus video.
Gaze upon Jax’s painted-on cyber arms for they are glorious.
It isn’t the first time we’ve had a peek behind the curtain in the Mortal Kombat series. Previously footage emerged from the original Mortal Kombat‘s motion capture work.
It’s nice to have a look back at the franchise’s past with Mortal Kombat 11 seemingly next on the horizon for Boon and company at Netherrealm Studios.
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.
