[Halloween] New “Zombie Skittles” Bags Have “Rotten Zombie”-Flavored Candies Hidden Inside

Published

For the past ten years now, Jelly Belly has been offering up boxes of jelly beans under their “BeanBoozled” umbrella, which feature gross flavors like “Stinky Socks,” “Dead Fish” and “Spoiled Milk” mixed in with delicious flavors like “Tutti-Fruitti,” “Coconut” and “Birthday Cake.” The idea being, you don’t know if you’re about to bite into a tasty one or a disgusting one.

It looks like Skittles will be taking a page out of the Jelly Belly book this Halloween season when they unleash ZOMBIE SKITTLES, sure to be one of Halloween 2019’s grossest delights.

The gimmick here is that Skittles candies that taste like “rotten zombie” have been randomly mixed into each bag of these. In other words, you won’t know if you’re tasting the rainbow or human flesh until it’s too late. The candies flavored like “Rotten Zombie” will be completely indistinguishable from the “normal” candies, as they can be any color of the rainbow.

Going the extra mile, each “normal” flavor has also been given a fun Halloween name:

  • Petrifying Citrus Punch
  • Mummified Melon
  • Boogeyman Blackberry
  • Chilling Black Cherry
  • Blood Red Berry

With Halloween now less than 100 days away, expect Zombie Skittles in stores soon!

‘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.
