Just happened to catch an ad over the weekend for a Sci-Fi original movie currently airing. The plot of Showdown at Area 51 seemed a little familiar from the 30-second spot: evidently two warring factions of interstellar invader meet up on Earth and clash, with humans caught in the crossfire. Sci-Fi channel watchers will know Gigi Edgley from Farscape, along with vets Christa Campbell (Mansquito) and Jason London (the recently discussed Dracula II: Ascension and Dracula III: Legacy).
It's not I Am Omega-level borrowery, but with Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (Alien Vs. Predator 2: Survival of the Fittest last time I wrote about it, back in June) opening Tuesday, neither is it coincidental. For those thinking I'm paranoid about such things, consider briefly the scrapped title: Alien vs. Alien. Also, it's got three writing credits and no director.
Happy Xmas/Festivus/Aliens vs. Predator Day!
