HIGH PLAINS INVADERS

 

UNIVERSAL CITY, CA -- February 8, 2010 – It’s a war of the worlds in the Wild West when HIGH PLAINS INVADERS lands on DVD April 6 from Vivendi Entertainment and RHI Entertainment.  After a good-hearted outlaw turns himself in for a fatal accident, the guilt-ridden Sam Phoenix is ready to be hanged when an unexpected pardon arrives in the form of an alien-insect invasion.  As the bloody killing spree begins, Sam and a small number of survivors are forced to take refuge in a nearby church.  Realizing they are going to need a lot more than a prayer and a pistol to survive this nightmare, the small community enters a showdown where only one species will make it out alive.  A Syfy Channel original movie, HIGH PLAINS INVADERS is the latest installment in the fan-favorite “Maneater Series” and features a stellar cast including James Marsters (“Buffy The Vampire Slayer,” “Angel”), Sebastian Knapp (Sand Serpents, 28 Days Later) and Cindy Sampson (Swamp Devil).  A ghastly, captivating terror, the HIGH PLAINS INVADERS DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $14.93. 

Synopsis:

The hanging of honorable Indian-fighter Sam Phoenix in a small western town is cut short by the unexpected invasion of uranium-based insectoid creatures, forcing Sam and a small band of survivors to take refuge in a church.  They’ll need more than a prayer and a pistol to survive, as a Wild West landscape is inundated by a killer force of alien pioneers.
