SKYLINE is looking like a whole lot of fun to me. I’m a sucker for any alien invasion saga, but the fact that this one appears to combine WAR OF THE WORLDS with elements of STARSHIP TROOPERS just makes the geek in me salivate. The clips so far have been pretty sweet (check out the last one we brought you HERE) and this new bit of footage is no different. In fact, it’s pretty damn explosive!

After a late night party, as a group of friends are awoken in the dead of the night by an eerie light beaming through the window. Like moths to a flame, the light source is drawing people outside before they suddenly vanish into the air. They soon discover an otherworldly force is swallowing the entire human population off the face of the earth. Now our band of survivors must fight for their lives as the world unravels around them.
