[R.I.P.] ‘Alien’ and ‘Blade Runner’ Editor Terry Rawlings Has Died at 86
As we head towards the fourth annual “Alien Day” this Friday, we’ve learned the sad news today that the original film’s editor, Terry Rawlings, has passed away at the age of 86.
In addition to editing Ridley Scott’s Alien, Rawlings also edited The Sentinel, Watership Down, Blade Runner, Legend, F/X, Alien 3, GoldenEye and 2004’s Phantom of the Opera.
Terry Rawlings was nominated for an Oscar in 1982 for his editing work on Chariots of Fire, and he was also nominated for four BAFTA Awards between 1970 and 1983.
Rawlings died Tuesday at his home in Hertfordshire, England, the Guild of British Film and Television Editors told The Hollywood Reporter.
Epic’s Fortnite is heading for another crossover, this time with Universal Orlando and Halloween Horror Nights. The title’s annual Fortnitemares Halloween event will be coming to Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in a new scare zone, kicking off on August 28.
For those not in the know, Scare zones are themed, open-air areas where guests and actors roam around freely.
This is the first time Fortnite will be featured during the after-hours event, which will run from August 28 until November 1. Tickets and packages are on sale now at the official site.
Per the press release, guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground that’s been “overcome with a threatening force.” From there, fans will meet up with the Battle Bus, featuring familiar Fortnitemares characters, including “a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights.”
And of course, there will be Fortnitemares merchandise available for fans, including a graphic t-shirt, decal set, and an acrylic collectible piece.
Fortnitemares won’t be the only featured property at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Killer Klowns from Outer Space will also be getting its own scare zone. Sinners, Stranger Things, Hellraiser, and Evil Dead Burn will also be part of the event, though they will be relegated to their own specific houses.
And while it’s early yet, gamers can probably expect Fortnitemares to return to Fortnite this October.
