ALIEN WAR !
Welcome to the Official Alien War site.
For those who would like to know what Alien War was all about, here is a brief background
In 1992, Gary Gillies and John Gorman had an idea after watching a double-bill of Alien/Aliens at a local cinema, "Wouldn't it be a great idea to be somehow taken right out of your armchair and into the movie for 15 minutes?"
Well, that's what Alien War is all about ! For 15 minutes of sheer terror you are taken around in a group, on foot, by a marine. He is armed and will open fire and try to protect you and the other members of your group inside a maze of corridors, med.labs, lift systems, dark smokey tunnels etc.... and in that darkness is an 8ft Alien ! Just like being in the movie, so real that in fact we have had many casualties fainting, having fits and some people actually wetting themselves in sheer terror !
Alien War opened
in "The Arches", Glasgow, Scotland in 1992, and was such a success
throughout the world that "Time" magazine did a full page color
feature. CBS TV, CNN, the BBC, ITV, "Big Breakfast", Channel 4 and all
the major papers and magazines ran features on Alien War.
