Indie Horror ‘Devotion’, From the Developer of ‘Detention’, Releases Next Month on Steam

Published

Detention is one of the most underrated horror games of this decade, and we’ve been eagerly awaiting developer Red Candle Games’s follow up Devotion. Now we have a release date for the Taiwanese indie horror.

The developer today announced Devotion will arrive on Steam from February 19 and released a new trailer to coincide with the news.

Devotion is a first-person atmospheric horror game depicting the life of a family shadowed by religious belief. You’ll explore a 1980s Taiwan apartment-complex that is somehow lost in time, and witness it gradually shift into a hellish nightmare. It concerns the stories of a family living there and follows their various forms of ‘devotion’.

Detention was a splendid mix of survival horror and historical fact, and there seems to be a slightly different blend to Devotion, but if Red Candle can get it right, we could be looking at one of the best horror games of the year.

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

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.
