Grabbers, out now on UK DVD & BD
The blood-curdling, booze-soaked horror comedy GRABBERS is out now on UK DVD and Blu-Ray.
The sleepy coastal community of Erin Island is about to receive some unexpected visitors. Vicious extra terrestrial predators have landed and they’ve got a thirst on.... for blood. With razor sharp tentacles and an insatiable hunger, the alien creatures are about to indulge in a feeding frenzy the likes of which has never been seen before.
With a storm fast approaching and with no means of escape, it’s down to the charming but heavy-drinking Policeman Ciarán O'Shea (Richard Coyle - Pusher) and his enthusiastic new recruit, Garda Lisa Nolan, (Ruth Bradley - TV’s Primeval) to rally the villagers, arm the troops…and head to the pub.
Will the locals find enough Dutch courage to survive The Grabbers? Head to your local DVD retailer and find out...

Hitchcock - A Love Story (sort-of)
Coming to UK cinemas in February, HITCHCOCK is a love story about one of the most influential filmmakers of
the last century, Alfred Hitchcock, and his wife and partner Alma Reville. The
film takes place during the making of Hitchcock's seminal movie PSYCHO.
Directed by Sacha Gervasi (The Story of Anvil), HITCHCOCK stars Academy Award winner Anthony Hopkins (The Silence of the Lambs) as Alfred Hitchcock, Helen Mirren (TVs Prime Suspect) as Alma Reville and Scarlett Johansson (Avengers Assemble) as Janet Leigh.
The cast also includes: James D'Arcy (Cloud Atlas) as Anthony
Perkins, Jessica Biel (Total Recall) as Vera Miles, Toni Collette
(The Hours) as Peggy Robertson and Danny Huston
(The Constant Gardener) as Whitfield Cook. The film is based on the book
‘Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho' by Stephen Rebello.
HITCHCOCK will open in the UK and Ireland on 8 February 2013, distributed by Fox Searchlight.

Oblivion Trailer
Not strictly Horror, but this trailer for the film "Oblivion" starring Tom Cruise looks kind of interesting...
The film is released to UK cinemas April 12th 2012.
The Horror Channel (UK) to screen "Cronenberg" season.
This January, The Horror Channel will be showcasing three of David Cronenberg’s most defining films with a season that can’t fail to shock and awaken the senses. SHIVERS, RABID and THE DEAD ZONE all receive their Horror Channel premieres, exclusively introduced by top horror directors Simon Rumley (Red White & Blue), Sean Hogan (The Devil’s Playground) and Pascal Laugier (Martyrs).

The season kicks off with the premiere of SHIVERS (1975), Cronenberg’s debut full-length feature that helped coined the phrase ‘Body Horror’. The infectious plot sees a parasite enter the bodies of people living in a Montreal apartment block and consequently turns them into libido driven, sex mad zombies. Clearly a fan of the genre, Cronenberg cast the unforgettable Hammer Horror siren Barbara Steele in what was to become one of the most iconic scenes in the film.

Next up is the premiere of RABID (1977) in which Cronenberg is once again flirting with the themes of strange science and even stranger sex in this blood-lusty follow up to Shivers. This time a young woman becomes a test subject for an experimental skin graft when she survives a horrific motorbike crash – but her new skin demands feeding…Starring Marilyn Chambers, this is Cronenberg’s twisted take on the Vampire genre.
Sat Jan 26 @ 22.55
Last in the season is THE DEAD ZONE (1983), in which Cronenberg teamed up with Stephen King when he adapted his novel THE DEAD ZONE. Filmed during a relentless deep freeze in Southern Ontario, this horror thriller stars Christopher Walken. As Johnny Smith – a man who wakes from a coma to find he’s lost five years of his life but gained psychic powers to foresee the future – something of a gift that soon becomes a curse.
