Irish monster comedy Grabbers coming to DVD in the U.S. this November!

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

GRABBERS, that clever monster comedy where getting drunk is the only defense against slimy creatures (I’d be all set!) is finally going to be available in the U.S. The Jon Wright-directed film hits DVD on November 12th; check out the official artwork below!

In case you’re not hip to the plot:

On Erin Island, an idyllic fishing village off the coast of Ireland, charming inebriate Ciaran O Shea (Richard Coyle, Pusher) is tasked with showing straight-laced police officer Lisa Nolan (Ruth Bradley, Primeval, In Her Skin) her new beat. Not that there s much to police, as most of the community s troubles are caused by O Shea himself. But strange doings are afoot: the crew of a fishing boat disappears, whales start appearing dead on the shore, and a local lobsterman catches a mysterious tentacled creature in his trap. Soon it becomes clear to O Shea and Nolan that there s something unnatural out there, and that it s hungry. So it s time to rally the villagers, arm the troops…and head to the pub.

The special features on the DVD include a behind-the-scenes featurette and the film’s trailer (which you can see below the poster). You can pre-order GRABBERS right HERE!
