I spoke about Alien Raiders in the first MOZ Presents: The Munchies episode when the film was screened as part of the 2008 H. P. Lovecraft Film Festival. I had an absolute blast watching this film, and along with the Audience Favorite Award it won at that festival, Alien Raiders has also been recognized with the following awards at other festivals across the US:
Shriekfest - Best Thriller Shockerfest - Best Sci Fi Feature Film, Best Actress (Courtney Ford) and Honorable Mention in the Best Actor category (Carlos Bernard) Terror Film Festival - Best Picture Freak Show Horror Film Festival - Best Feature and Carlos Bernard was named Best Actor International Horror and Sci Fi Film Festival - Best Horror Screenplay The Thriller! Chiller! Film Festival - The Thriller Award Fresh veggies on Aisle 1. Fresh kills throughout the store. Something terrible is happening at Hastings Market. Something bloody. Something deadly. Something inhuman. And caught up in the grisly horror inside the market are shoppers turned hostages, unearthly alien terrors . . . and a dedicated commando band of raiders on a search-and-destroy mission to stop the intruders dead cold no matter where they hide. From Raw Feed, creators of the Rest Stop and Otis shockers, comes the sci-fi/horror tale Alien Raiders, a nerve-shredding battle for human survival against aliens that invade our world by invading our bodies. Be alert. Beware. Be afraid. The creatures’ next host could be your neighbor. Your kid brother. No – it’s you! Produced by Dan Myrick (co-director of The Blair Witch Project, co-writer of Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2, director of Solstice, The Believers, and The Objective) and directed by Ben Rock (Shadow of the Blair Witch, Conversations), Alien Raiders is WHV’s sixth acquired title from the successful “Raw Feed” film franchise. The film stars Carlos Bernard (“24”), Jeff Licon (Mysterious Skin), Courtney Ford (Lie to Me), Samantha Streets (The Girl from the Naked Eye), Keith Hudson (Bad Boys II, Sex Drive), Matthew St. Patrick (War, “Six Feet Under”), and Rockmond Dunbar (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, “Prison Break”). Tony Krantz (Otis, Mulholland Drive, Sublime, “24”) and John Shiban (“The X Files,” “Supernatural,” Rest Stop) are also producers. AVAILABLE ON DVD FEBRUARY 17
