CENTURY CITY, Calif. – A must-own collection for Newcomer-fans and series’ newcomers alike, the Alien Nation: Ultimate Movie Collection debuts on DVD April 15 from Fox Home Entertainment. Continuing where the original television series left off, the Alien Nation: Ultimate Movie Collection includes all-five suspenseful, sci-fi movies for the first time on DVD. Nominated for a combined three Emmy® Awards*, the films follow the continuing action-packed adventures of Los Angeles police detective Matt Sikes (Gary Graham, “Supernatural”) and his partner George Francisco (Eric Pierpoint, “Enterprise”), an alien fugitive slave who must, along with his brethren, struggle to assimilate into life on his adopted planet Earth, without sacrificing his own cultural identity. Providing stunning revelations to unanswered questions from the original television series, Alien Nation: Ultimate Movie Collection kicks off with Alien Nation: Dark Horizons, when the fate of the entire planet is on the line as a Purist group develops a virus designed to kill all Newcomers. Alien Nation: Body and Soul follows, as the detectives investigate the compelling case of a mysterious girl who appears to be the first human-alien hybrid. When a deadly cult, promising instant spiritual fulfillment but delivering something far more sinister, emerges in Alien Nation: Millennium it’s up to Sikes and Francisco to uncover the startling truth. In Alien Nation: The Enemy Within, George must come to terms with his own prejudices while investigating the mysterious death of a member of a reviled caste of alien waste-eaters as Matt experiences culture shock when deciding to move in with his Newcomer love interest. A strange form of post-hypnotic suggestion causes law-abiding Newcomers to commit violent crimes in the final installment, Alien Nation: The Udara Legacy, as Matt and George must uncover the brainwashing secrets dating back to an alien rebellion group. Featuring an abundance of bonus materials including commentary for each film by director and co-creator Kenneth Johnson (“The Incredible Hulk,” “The Bionic Woman”), featurettes, gag reels, storyboards and photo galleries, the Alien Nation: Ultimate Movie Collection will be available on DVD for the suggested retail price of $49.98 U.S. / $69.98 Canada. Pre-book is March 19.
