The Lair images offer a look at Neil Marshall’s new creature feature

A couple days ago, we learned that Dog Soldiers (buy it HERE) director Neil Marshall’s new creature The Lair will be receiving a theatrical, digital, and VOD release in North America on October 28th, courtesy of RLJE Films. We’re still waiting to see a trailer for the movie, but in the meantime the folks at Collider got their hands on a batch of first look images. A couple of those images The Lair can be see at the bottom of this article, and you can click over to Collider to see a couple more.

Written by Marshall and Charlotte Kirk (The Reckoning), The Lair is said to be Marshall’s return to “full-blooded horror and intense genre action”. The film follows

Sgt. Tom Hook as he is tasked with leading a unit to find Lt. Kate Sinclair after the Royal Air Force fighter pilot was shot down in Afghanistan. Pursued by insurgents, Sinclair has sought shelter in an abandoned bunker where she unwittingly releases the Ravagers – a half human-half alien man-made biological weapon. Hook and his team, accompanied by a handful of British SAS troops, must save Sinclair from insurgents and the Ravagers before they overrun the area and threaten the entire world.

Kirk also stars in the film, and is joined in the cast by Jonathan Howard (Thor: The Dark World) and Jamie Bamber (Battlestar Galactica).

The Lair was produced by Daniel-Konrad Cooper of Rather Good Films Ltd. Marshall executive produced alongside Kirk, Joe Simpson, Phil Rymer, Simon Williams, and Samantha Allwinton. Ingenious Media and Ashland Hill Media Finance funded the feature, while co-producers Jonathan Halperyn and Daniel Kresmery of Hero Squared provided production services in Hungary.

The Lair will be screening at Arrow Video FrightFest at the end of August. Following its RLJE Films release in October, the movie will be available to watch on the Shudder streaming service in the US, the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand starting early next year.

I’m a fan of Marshall’s work, Dog Soldiers especially, so I’m really looking forward to The Lair, especially after seeing these images. Will you be watching this movie? Let us know by leaving a comment below.
