James Caviezel’s Outlander Movie Poster
Outlander (2007) Movie — By Nix on April 22, 2008
I am so looking forward to the alien-Viking movie “Outlander”, starring James Caviezel as an alien who crash lands on Earth along with a predator, and now has to hunt the creature down with the help of the locals, who just happens to be, well, primitive Vikings. But hey, they may be primitive, but one of them is played by Sophia Myles, and the film will co-star Jack Huston, Ron Perlman and John Hurt. Howard McCain directs.
Here’s the plot:
During the reign of the Vikings, Kainan (Caviezel), a man from a far-off world, crash lands on Earth, bringing with him an alien predator known as the Moorwen. Though both man and monster are seeking revenge for violence committed against them, Kainan leads the alliance to kill the Moorwen by fusing his advanced technology with the Viking’s Iron Age weaponry.

God, this sounds cool! It’s a like a cross between “Pathfinder” and “Predator” with a little “I Come In Peace” thrown in. Wow, and “Jesus” has come a long way, hasn’t he?
I haven’t heard anyone mention the word “Beowulf” in anything I’ve read about the movie, but my guess is that this is the origins of the Beowulf legend.
The “Beowulf” legend’s fictional origins were also explained in Michael Crichton’s “Eaters of the Dead,” which was later adapted as John McTiernan’s “The 13th Warrior.”
When is the movie going to be in theaters.
