Alien Day, 26th April, is two weeks away and IGN has released the third in a series of movie shorts made by fans of the Alien franchise to celebrate forty years since the release of Alien.
Last weeks short Alien: Specimen set the bar relatively high with its well-executed acting, lighting, and sound design, especially after the generic though modestly made first short Alien: Containment. This week's short Alien: Night Shift was directed and written by Aidan Michael Brezonick and stars Amber Gaston, Terrance Kieth Richardson, Christopher Murray, and Tanner Rittenhouse.
