Outlander - Vikings vs Aliens

During the reign of the Vikings, Kainan (James Caviezel), a man from a
far-off world, crash lands on Earth, bringing with him an alien predator known
as the Moorwen. Though both man and monster are seeking revenge for violence
committed against them, Kainan leads the alliance to kill the Moorwen by fusing
his advanced technology with the Viking's Iron Age weaponry.
This sounds bloody brilliant. I remember reading about the whole Vikings vs Aliens thing months ago and thought it was a great idea but didn't think anything would come of it, or if it did it would be a great big pile of steaming Biffness. However, I've watched the trailer now and it looks solid. Plus it stars Jesus Christ himself, James Caviezel (who , according to Variety, has signed up to play Number Six in a remake of The Prisoner alongside Sir Ian McKellan) along with John Hurt and Ron Perlman (The Prof and Big Red together again). It's directed by Howard McCain who did a film back in 1994 called No Dessert, Dad, Till You Mow the Lawn I kid you not.

I'm still looking forward to Outlander though and the official site has some good photos to wet your appetite even more. Not sure when it is exactly out, Ron Perlman in a recent interview said, "I don't know what's going on with Outlander. Outlander was supposed to come out last March, and I don't know why it didn't. I can't get any kind of answer as to what the status of it is."

That looks kinda up my street, lol. Its a pity that these sorts of trailers have to show you too much of the monsters... I think it spoils it for when you come round to actually watching the film. The mystery is gone.
