The adrenaline-fueled Sci-fi thriller Skyline has landed on Blu-ray from Universal Home Entertainment, and M&C’s giving away five copies!

It was supposed to be a simple birthday weekend in Southern California.  But when sunrise arrives two hours early in the form of a haunting light from an unknown source, a group of friends watch in terror as people across the city are drawn outside and swept into massive alien ships that have blotted out the Los Angeles skyline. 

From tankers to drones and hydra-like extraterrestrials, the aliens are inescapable and seemingly indestructible.  From the masterful directors, The Brothers Strause Skyline will keep you guessing in this action-packed sci-fi adventure.

In this heart-pounding thrill ride starring Eric Balfour (“Haven,” “24”), Donald Faison ("Scrubs," Clueless), David Zayas (“Dexter”), Brittany Daniel (Little Man, “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”) and Scottie Thompson (“Trauma,” Star Trek), Skyline will take every survival instinct a group of friends has to elude capture.
