New science fiction thriller Black Antenna is set against Alice in Chains' Rainier Fog album and goes straight for the teeth.

Black Antenna has come raining down as Alice in Chains reminds us why we even care anymore. With an insistent beat, the Seattle sound pioneers are going where no grunge band has gone before. Alice In Chains released the first two episodes of Black Antenna, a 90 minute science fiction thriller which will be released in 10 segments before coming out as a full movie.

Directed by Adam Mason, written by Paul Sloan and Adam Mason and produced by Elizabeth Mason and Nick Vallelonga, who is coming off Best Original Screenplay and Best Picture Oscars for Green Book, Black Antenna is set against songs from Alice in Chains' sixth studio album Rainier Fog.

Alice in Chains dropped Rainier Fog on August 24, 2018. It is named after Seattle's volcano Mount Rainier.

"There you are... your kind has never come to visit us before." Rock band Alice in Chains has released a full trailer for their new sci-fi film Black Antenna, inspired by their sixth studio album Rainier Fog released last year. The film is a 90-minute feature – but it will initially be released as 10 individual "episodes", which will culminate and connect to create the entire film. Not much is known about Black Antenna – there's no synopsis released, and there's barley any information available online. From the footage in this trailer, a guy seems to pull some weird alien woman out of his stomach. There are shots in this that seem to reference the sci-fi film Under the Skin, in which Scarlett Johansson played an alien creature. Black Antenna stars Eric Michael Cole, Paul Sloan, and Viktoriya Dov, and it's directed by Adam Mason, who has shot a few music videos for Alice in Chains before.
