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!
