A bit of film news out of Ireland, that I haven’t heard coming out of Comicon… a film called “Grabbers.”  It sounds like Father Ted (or at least Father Jack) meets The Thing.  A small Irish island community is beset by monsters and the only way you can survive them is to get good and drunk.  (Hmmm… are these monsters threatening the Hyatt bar during Comicon?  It might explain a few things.)

The  film stars Richard Coyle, best known to American audiences as Jeff (the Welshman) in Coupling.

The trailer appears to be exclusive to Ireland’s RTÉ, so go over and have a look.  This has cult hit written all over it.

Or hear the stars discuss it below:
