Won't somebody think of the bullied kids? They're everywhere, including several of this summer's biggest movies. Everywhere you look, kids are roughed up, getting robbed of their lunch money, having their car keys tossed in a sewer (in Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem). Even Shia got hassled by jocks in last summer's Transformers. Luckily, there's almost always a superhuman being who befriends this poor downtrodden kid. Put yourself in the flying shoes of this alien/mutant demigod for a moment. How would you help this underdeveloped child best these bigger, meaner tormentors? More »

Don't call Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem a flop, pleads co-director Colin Strause. After all, it's made back its budget and done quite well overseas. "I admit I wish it did better in the US, but these numbers are nothing to feel bad about," he adds. As for the chances for a third AVP movie? it's still a possibility. [MovieHole] More »

Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem began its box-office battle yesterday amidst gift-unwrapping and all-day reruns of A Christmas Story on cable TV, and the hate has started pouring in. Although one maniac at io9 apparently liked this flick, AVPR is being eviscerated by film critics across the nation in a splatter-fest of ink and gore that is more brutal than the actual film. People love to hate this movie more than they love to hate Britney. More »

It was a sold-out afternoon show for Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem in downtown San Francisco yesterday, and I was sitting in between two huge family groups who had helpfully brought about half a dozen kids under the age of eight. Good call! This was a family movie, starting off on the right foot with a Predator ship full of Alien specimens crashing in the Colorado forest and immediately implanting themselves in a hunter and his young son. You've got to love a holiday monster movie that's not afraid to kill kids in horrible, gut-munching, blood-spewing detail. People who want dialog that goes beyond "People are dying!" should seek out something else; but monster freaks will love this flick. More »

A new Dune movie will be "big big big," says director Peter Berg (The Kingdom.) The David Lynch version was dandy, but "that interpretation has left the door wide open for a remake," Berg says. If it wasn't for the writers' strike, he'd be working on his version of the Frank Herbert mega-novel right now. [MTV Movies Blog]. Spoilers for Sarah Michelle Gellar's next project, Cloverfield, and AVP-R after the jump. More »

Welcome back to Horrorhead, a fortnightly column about all things scifi and horror. This week, a crucial topic: Aliens vs. Predators. Not the movie, the smackdown. Colin Strause, one of the two Brothers Strause who directed the upcoming Aliens vs. Predator sequel, is known across the webonets as a serious Predator fan. The brothers claim that Predators are somehow better than Aliens because they're more humanoid, use tools, and are therefore relatable. But I'm here to say fuck that. Who wants "relatability" in a monster? Seriously, Colin, the Aliens win hands-down in any horror/scifi smackdown. Here's why. More »
