Teaser Poster for Nacho Vigalondo’s EXTRATERRESTRIAL
One of the most original and exciting sci-fi flicks of the past five years was directed by a man named Nacho. I speak of 2007’s Timecrimes and finally, after four years, Nacho Vigalondo is returning with Extraterrestrial. The first teaser poster is here and it has us asking “WTF is up with the tennis ball?”

Press Start!: Killstreaks Groinal Leakage.

Press Start!, press select!, who gives a shit! This is the column where I blather like the droll man I am about five things that caught my eye in the world of gaming this week. Buckle up for the suck. As I type this, the PSN is reigniting its engines, and word unconfirmed by yours truly is that the United States can actually play games online once more with their PlayStationing machinery.

FRIGHT NIGHT Remake Double Play: First Trailer and a Look at David Tennant As Peter Vincent
The first trailer for the Fright Night remake is here and it’s like watching the entire movie.

‘True Blood’ Season 4 Trailer Has Naked, Humor and Fangs.

It’s been so long that the continual sour taste of True Blood has been washed out of my mouth. As the proprietor of a weekly True Blood re-cap, I’m going to watch this season regardless of whether or not it’s good. I have a fucking gig! However, I did find the trailer exciting. It’s got Alcide and Jessica looking all hot as fuck, some vampire fighting action time stuff, and it’s actually humors at moments.

Check Out Bruce Willis In Johnson’s ‘Looper.’

Us here in the Den of Omega are big fans of both Rian Johnson and science fiction. The fact that they’re coming together in ‘Looper’ has us a bit erect. So while it’s typically not worth pumping one out over a single promo picture, I’m pretty stoked for this shot of Bruce Willis in said sci-fi flick.
Check out the big piggy after the break.
