Predators Goodie Bag

I know the site has been a bit quiet lately (sorry about that, i blame Steam’s truly excellent Summer Sale!) However, we’re now back, and once again we’ve got a great competition for you!

Robert Rodriguez & Nimród Antal’s PREDATORS is due out in UK cinemas 8th July 2010, and to celebrate the return of the butt ugly, trophy hunting aliens to the silver screen, the nice folk at 20th Century Fox have given us 5 PREDATORS Goodie bags to give away! The bags include a t-shirt, mousemat, laser pointer, carabimer compass, cap, and notebook.

PREDATORS SYNOPSIS

PREDATORS, a bold new chapter in the Predator universe, shot under the creative auspices of Robert Rodriguez, stars Adrien Brody as Royce, a mercenary who reluctantly leads a group of elite warriors who come to realise they’ve been brought together on an alien planet… as prey. With the notable exception of a disgraced physician, they are all cold-blooded killers – mercenaries, Yakuza, convicts, death squad members – human “predators” that are now being systemically hunted and eliminated by a new breed of alien predators.

GIVE ‘EM HELL MALONE!

Get ready for the shoot ‘em up action-movie of the year, as GIVE ‘EM HELL MALONE is released to own on DVD by Momentum Pictures on 17 May 2010.

Along with a bad-ass soundtrack, this comic-book style flick is fantastic on the eye and if you’re fans of the colourful format of Sin City and The Spirit then this movie is definitely one for your collection.

From director Russell Mulchay (Highlander, Resident Evil – Extinction), GIVE ‘EM HELL MALONE offers a white-knuckle ride through the dark world of a P.I. Starring hard-man Thomas Jane (The Punisher, Deep Blue Sea, The Mist), Ving Rhames (Pulp Fiction, Con Air, Mission Impossible), Doug Hutchison (CSI, Lost, 24) and Elsa Patakay (Snakes on a Plane, Skate or Die) the film is jammed-packed with adrenalin-pumping action from start to finish.

GIVE ‘EM HELL MALONE tells the story of a tough private detective named Malone (Jane) who’s task is to retrieve a mysterious briefcase. Along the way he runs into various gangsters and people of the criminal element who also want to get their hands on its contents. Malone is renowned for his brutal brand of justice and with no holds barred will give each and every one of them hell if they cross his path.

Where would this movie be without the string of bad guys? Boulder, can pack one hell of a thunder-punch, then there is the knife wielding martial-arts chick Mauler and let’s not leave out the mad pyromaniac Matchstick, who can’t leave a room without setting fire to someone. Can Malone defeat these psychotic villains that will stop at nothing to see the back of him?!
