Growth Slithers to DVD September 7th via Anchor Bay

Anchor Bay Entertainment will be releasing Gabriel Cowan's (Breathing Room) Growth on DVD September 7th (Shock). The clip below for the film is sure to make audiences squirm as 2" parasites infect almost every one on the isolated Kuttyhunk Island. This New Artists Alliance film stars Mircea Monroe (The Black Waters of Echo's Pond), Christopher Shand (Hit and Run) and Brian Krause (Desertion). Have a watch of the trailer below along with the announced DVD extras also inside.

The synopsis for Growth here:

"Growth begins in 1989, when a breakthrough in advanced parasitic research on Kuttyhunk Island gives scientists a jump in human evolution, endowing subjects with heightened physical and mental strength. But, the experiment went horribly wrong. A lethal parasite was produced that mysteriously killed off three quarters of the island's population, with the survivors fleeing for their lives.

Continues...

Twenty years later, Jamie Akerman (Monroe), who lost her mother in the outbreak, returns with her boyfriend (Krause), step-brother and best friend to sell the family property. There, they uncover the key to Jamie’s disturbing past, and the horrifying secrets long suppressed by the town’s leader Larkin (Riehle). The past seems to be finally buried when a new strain of parasite emerges and threatens the island once again.

They can slither into – or out of – any orifice in the human body" (Shock).

Release Date: September 7th, 2010 (DVD).
