Hello. I'm UKFilmNerd, you can usually find me at [email protected]. While I usually review films on my little blog space, I occasionally branch out and try reviewing other forms of media.

Here's a review of the book Aliens: Phalanx by Scott Sigler. It's an Aliens adventure, based on the popular film franchise, but in this story, the people under attack are a primitive type with no guns just spears.

We got Prey, which I think is absolutely fantastic, and that's historical. I think it's inspired by the final scene of Predator 2.

Indeed - Predator works much better historically and could have almost infinite interations as a lone hunter comes to Earth to challenge some skilled combatant from the past.

You let an Alien lose in Earth presumably up to at least the time of the Alien films and it's game over, man.
