Here’s the gnarly trailer for OUTLANDER, which we haven’t written about in over a year. All I can say is it looks like ARMY OF DARKNESS meets BEOWULF meets LORD OF THE RINGS meets… well, you get the idea. What matters is that it looks kinda cool, which in the parlance of our times means I’ll wait for the DVD, but with hope… Check out the Viking vs. Alien madness HERE!
And here’s what this bastard is all about: Kainan’s people have been fighting the Moorwen, fierce animal-like creatures, for ages. When his space craft crashes into the fjords of ancient Norway it’s with dismay that Kainan realizes that he wasn’t the only survivor. A second passenger, a Moorwen also emerges from the wreckage and into the time of the Vikings, intent on causing harm to those it perceives have wronged it. As the Moorwen kills everything in its path, Kainan has to try and get the feuding tribes to work together long enough to destroy the beast before it destroys them all.
The flick stars Jim “Jesus” Caviezal, Sophia Myles (below), John Hurt, and of course, Ron Perlman, who I think is bound by God (or the Devil) to participate in every movie of this sort.
As of yet, no release date has been announced for North America… (It IS playing in Latvia, however..)
