Alien War was a "total reality" experience in the United Kingdom that originally opened at the Arches in Glasgow themed around the Alien series of films. The attraction had a short run as a mobile event at various exhibition centres in the UK (including the Bournemouth International Centre and the Aberdeen Exhibition & Conference Centre). On 15th October 1993 it opened in the basement of the Trocadero centre in London. The permanent attraction in London closed after a flood in August 1996 and was never reopened. It made a short return between December 1999 and January 2000 in the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre in Glasgow in a modified form. Image File history File links Alien_war_logo. ...

The adult Aliens were realised by performers in suits and the facehugger creatures were animatronic effects. (From left to right) USCM Pvt. ...

Technology The marines originally carried blank firing pistols. For Alien War London, an innovative electronic system called Soundfire was developed to allow the weapons to sound like those used in the film Aliens. The system consisted of Pulse Rifles with infrared transmitters and small strobe lights (to simulate muzzle flash). When the trigger is pulled a signal is transmitted to receivers hidden in the set. A central computer then plays gunfire sound effects to speakers in the correct area of the set. The system also played other sound effects such as the Alien sounds. The system suffered teething troubles in the first months after opening meaning that the blank firing pistols had to be used for most early shows. blank cartridges, as used in nail guns A blank is a type of cartridge for a gun that contains gunpowder but no bullet or shot. ...
