Something sinister has come to the shores of Erin Island, unbeknownst to the quaint population of this sleepy fishing village resting somewhere off IrelandÔÇÖs coast. First, some fishermen go missing. Then there is the rash of whale carcasses suddenly washing up on the beach. When the murders start, itÔÇÖs up to two mismatched cops ÔÇô an irresponsible alcoholic and his new partner, a by-the-book woman from the mainland ÔÇô 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 creaturesÔÇÖ onslaught, everyone will have to get very, very drunk!
