The title Spooks is the name of a "secret branch of the government that guards humanity from things that go bump in the night, and when the king of all vampires allies with the deadliest of witches, it unleashes an invasion of classic monsters on Washington DC, calling the SPOOKS team into action. The concept, created by Ryan Schifrin (director of the cult horror hit Abominable) and Daniel Alter ( producer: Hitman) has been in the works for two years. When legendary fantasy author RA Salvatore (Forgotten Realms, DemonWars) and Larry Hama (G.I.Joe, Wolverine) came on board it was all the series needed."

Yahoo! Movies UK has just posted the "first five minutes" of Aliens vs Predator: Requiem are now online for our viewing pleasure. The scenes have a rushed feel as well as a temp score, but do deliver some choice scenes of carnage. Here's hoping we'll see a more polished version in the theaters. As of now, the verdict is still out on this one.
