“There’s something in here! You gotta get us out!” To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Ridley Scott’s
Alien, first released in May of 1979, 20th Century Fox has produced a series of six new sci-fi
Short Films that will be released each week beginning at the end of this month. Set in the cinematic “
Alien Universe” (as it’s now being called), Fox partnered with crowdsourced studio
Tongal and took submissions from fans who were interested in creating their own
Alien shorts. They received over 550 entries, and only
six lucky filmmakers were chosen to bring their stories to life. These shorts will be debuting online via IGN as part of their 40th anniversary festivities, so get ready. For now this
Teaser gives us just a tiny taste of the shorts and they look pretty damn impressive. All of them seem to be a bit more polished than your average fan film. Take a peek.<span id="more-473886"/>
