4.8Earth has been conquered by robots from another galaxy and the human survivors must stay in their homes, or risk incineration.
Robot Overlords
2015
6.1Something sinister has come to the shores of Erin Island, unbeknownst to the quaint population of this sleepy fishing village resting somewhere off Ireland’s coast. First, some fishermen go missing. Then there is the rash of whale carcasses suddenly washing up on the beach. When the murders start, it’s up to two mismatched cops – an irresponsible alcoholic and his new partner, a by-the-book woman from the mainland – to protect the townsfolk from the giant, bloodsucking, tentacled aliens that prey upon them. Their only weapon, they discover, is booze. If they want to survive the creatures’ onslaught, everyone will have to get very, very drunk!
Grabbers
2012
5.1Driven to suicide by relentless bullying and neglect, a resurrected teenager returns from the dead to exact lethal revenge on his former tormentors.

When heavily pregnant Maya’s relationship with a local family turns sour, who – or what – will come to her rescue and to what extremes will she go to protect her unborn child?
Unwelcome
2023
