Valak Haunts Los Santos in This ‘GTA 5’ Machinima Video Inspired By ‘The Nun’
So New Line’s The Nun blew the lid off the box office this past weekend with a $53.3 million opening here in North America, and another $77 million worldwide. Now I’m not here to play the game of “ugh, film sucked, why are you mentioning it?”. That’s your opinion.
What I am here to tell you about is that in the spirit of the film’s success, Final Flame Productions (the same guys who have done Grand Theft Auto 5 machinima video tributes to horror heroes and villains, as well as their own parodies such as for IT) had done a machinima video for The Nun back in June that’s just been brought to our attention.
I know, better late than never. Still, you have to hand it to these guys for once again being able to put together something that functions as a nice tribute to the film, but also just showing their skills off with the tools that they have. Still no carjacking as Valak, though.
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.
