Gore and gung-ho gals in the streaming horror series that’ll have you grinning.
IT’S A BATSHIT CRAZY GENRE-BLENDER
1 What happens when you splice Night Of The Creeps with Rosemary’s Baby and Mean Girls? Well, you get Stage 13’s new streaming miniseries Snatchers, an eight-parter that puts the pain in pregnancy as high schooler Sara (Mary Nepi) starts spawning alien parasites after shacking up with her boyfriend. Turning to her nerdy ex-bestie Hayley (Gabrielle Elyse) for help, Sara staggers from one bloody scene to the next as their hometown devolves into a hotbed of horror. “When you have ‘teen pregnancy’ and ‘aliens’, there’s no limit to what you can do!” laughs Nepi.

Making Alien - Jaws in Space - Forty-five years on from its original release, Alien continues to terrify. We dissect what arguably remains the most chilling instalment in the saga
The seven-strong crew of the commercial mining spacecraft the Nostromo seal their fate after reluctantly responding to a mysterious distress signal on a hostile planet. Here, a face-hugging alien from a derelict ship impregnates and later kills executive officer Kane (John Hurt) after its offspring is birthed onboard. After being unleashed, the fearsome newborn with acid for blood proceeds to dispatch the remainder of the crew.Ridley Scott's much more convoluted prequels have yet to reveal how the knowledge that led to this initial interception was acquired. However, the premise of the original Alien is perfect in its uncomplicated purity.
