It might be going straight to DVD next month, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t look forward to the long awaited sequel to Peter Weller’s notorious SCREAMERS. Awkwardly titled SCREAMERS: THE HUNTING, we just scored a galla of new pics from the film, and boy does it look like grade A STD entertainment, or the likes the Sci-Fi Channel would be proud!
Starring Lance Henriksen, Gina Holden, and Greg Bryk, and directed by Sheldon Wilson, THE HUNTING goes a little something like this: It’s been thirteen years since the robotic killing machines known as Screamers destroyed the human population of Sirius 6B. But now a distress signal brings a team of rescuers to the supposedly abandoned planet. Can it be a long-lost colony of human survivors? Or have the Screamers evolved into something even more sinister…a half-man/half-machine hybrid that needs to escape Sirius 6B to finish its mission: the complete annihilation of the human race?
I’m gonna say the Screamers have evolved and now they’re more badass and relentless as ever before. The new pics, while new, aren’t all that cool. They’re more character shots than anything else (where’s Henriksen???), but you gotta dig the look of the new Screamers… now that’s something to get excited aboutl.
Enjoy the new pics, and get ready for SCREAMERS: THE HUNTING on DVD February 17th.
