Queen Crab Rises from the Deep This September
A couple of months back we announced that Wild Eye Releasing would be releasing Brett Piper’s Queen Crab onto DVD this September, but at that time we didn’t have an exact date. Today, that changes as we have just received word that Queen Crab will be rising from the deep onto DVD and VOD this September 29th, for you all to bare witness to some glorious stop-motion wizardry!
From the Press Release:
Wild Eye Releasing has announced the September 29th DVD and VOD release of Queen Crab. The latest film from cult auteur Brett Piper (They Bite, The Screaming Dead, Raiders of the Living Dead) Queen Crab is a loving, action-packed tribute to the classic days of practical stop-motion animation, evoking the days of Ray Harryhausen creature features.
A meteor crashes into a quiet lake in the remote countryside, awakening a centuries-old beast. She emerges from the deep and tears through a nearby town and its inhabitants. The humans must fight for their lives and stop this Queen Crab before she can hatch an army of babies that will overrun the entire world.
The September 29th DVD release of Queen Crab (SRP $19.95) will exclusively include a feature-length director’s commentary, special effects featurettes, a behind the scenes featurette, a blooper reel and trailers.
