We are so close to Halloween season. I can feel it.

Every year, Mattel puts out a line of Halloween-themed Hot Wheels vehicles around, well, Halloween, and it seems that Walmart stores have already begun putting this year’s lineup out onto shelves. Yes. In mid-July.

The man behind blog The Lamley Group just stumbled upon this year’s Halloween cars at his local Walmart, giving us an early peek at the 2017 wave. It looks like eight brand new cars are headed our way for Halloween 2017, including the following spooktastic vehicles:

  • ’52 Chevy Truck (black)
  • ’71 Plymouth Satellite (gold)
  • Olds 442 Off-Road (light blue)
  • Muscle Tone (purple)
  • Zotic (zamac)
  • Scorcher (orange)
  • Great Gatspeed (black)
  • Ratical Racer (red)

All of this year’s cars have a shared theme, as they each feature tires with skull-shaped rims. Pretty cool. You can check out all of the Halloween 2017 Hot Wheels below!

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

Published

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.
