Adrian Paul in HIGHLANDER - THE TV SERIES

HIGHLANDER: THE SERIES, which ran in syndication from 1992 through 1998, is based on the HIGHLANDER film franchise.

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Reiley McClendon, Rick Ravanello, Douglas Tait, Joe Regan, Sven Ruygrok Writers: Blake Clifton & Jabbar Raisani Director: Jabbar Raisani Distributor: IFC Midnight Release Date: January 30, 2015 It’s hard to tell whether ALIEN OUTPOST is intended as a metaphor for how terrorist cells convert and/or conscript ordinary civilians to attack U.S. military outposts and how bad things can get when an installation is considered low-priority by the brass, or whether the filmmakers were consciously going for some traditional low-budget sci-fi movie concepts. For that matter, it’s hard to tell a lot of things about ALIEN OUTPOST, […]Read On »

In the new animated feature film WAR OF THE WORLDS: GOLIATH, now in theatres and on VoD, World War I is about to break loose, but Earth has a bigger problem – a new Martian invasion. Good thing that, in this version of history, a multi-national task force has built weaponry that can stand up to the alien assault, with soldiers of all countries (and both genders) putting aside their differences to save our planet from a common enemy. Adrian Paul voices one of the main characters, an Irishman who finds his loyalties tested by certain aspects of the conflict. […]Read On »
