The VHS Strikes Back E13

Mashups aren't a new thing and it was at the comic publisher Dark Horse where they first came up with the idea to put together the Fox properties of Alien and Predator together in the 1990's, and which provided the inspiration for this movie. With a promising idea to have Predator's hunt Alien's as a rite of passage, Chris and Dave look at whether this movie lived up to initial promise.

Plot Summary:

When a private satellite encounters an unidentified source of heat in Antarctica and it is found to be a pyramid buried deep underground , a search team comprising of top-of-the-line archaeologists and engineers is sent to Antarctica to find out more . Once there , the team comes across signs which indicate that the place is inhabited by an unknown alien species . It is not long before the aliens begin to hunt the team members . At the same time , a trio of coming-of-age Predators have arrived to collect the skulls of the aliens as trophies , and the humans are caught between a deadly battle between the two warring species.
