John Horsley (Spoiler Country) joined the Nerds to discuss the UK/Irish film Grabbers. Kevin Lehane wrote the script, and Jon Wright directed it.

Grabbers premiered in 2012 at the Sundance Film Festival to mostly positive reviews. The film was announced as one of the “Best of the Fest” at the Edinburgh International Film Festival. At the 2014 Fangoria Chainsaw Awards, it received two nominations for “Best Script” and “Best creature”. Unfortunately, it only received a limited theatrical release.

“When an island off the coast of Ireland is invaded by bloodsucking aliens, the heroes discover that getting drunk is the only way to survive.“
