New “Stranger Things” Poster Pays Tribute to ‘Alien’
This is Will Byers. Only survivor of The Upside Down. Signing off.
We’ve been loving Netflix’s new “Stranger Things” posters the last few weeks, which have been paying homage to specific films that were huge inspirations on the first season of the series. Stand by Me, A Nightmare on Elm Street and Running Man have thus far been paid tribute to, and we’ve got another for ya today.
In this latest poster tribute, “Stranger Things” tackles Ridley Scott’s Alien, a film we were reminded of when Hopper and Joyce Byers ventured into the Upside Down towards the end of the first season. The whole landscape looked like it was ripped straight out of the 1979 sci-fi/horror classic, right down to a giant egg on the ground.
I guess you could say that in the Upside Down, no one can hear you scream…
The second season of “Stranger Things” hits Netflix on October 27.
The discovery of life beyond Earth leads to paranoia and danger for a family in the new trailer for The Outer Threat.
The sci-fi thriller heads to Digital and VOD on July 10, 2026.
In The Outer Threat, “After making a groundbreaking extraterrestrial discovery, astrophysicists Daniel and Michelle are forced to flee from home with their family — pursued through the countryside by a relentless and anonymous assailant. As their flight unfolds, the line between cosmic revelation and human paranoia blurs, leading to a tense and emotional confrontation that challenges the boundaries of understanding, science, and survival.“
The film comes from writer-director William Woods and stars Constance Wu, Mark O’Brien, William Fichtner, Callista Crowe, Isaac Smelcer-Zhang, Oscar Hsu, and Murray Furrow.
Maddy Falle, Albert Shin, and Allison White produce. Executive producers include Rob McGillivray, Ben Stranahan, Tom Spriggs, John Hansen III, Patrick Vipond, Jared Blaichman, Jonah Blaichman, and Randall Okita.
The Outer Threat arrives on the heels of Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day, circling similar territory. The truth about the existence of aliens leads to danger in the trailer below.
