It’s a darkly comic story of familial vampirism.

Lionsgate has announced that THE RADLEYS will debut in theaters and on VOD/digital platforms October 4. Directed by Euros Lyn (TORCHWOOD, HEARTSTOPPER) from a script by Talitha Stevenson, based on the novel by Matt Haig, it stars Damian Lewis, Kelly Macdonald, Harry Baxendale, Bo Bragason, Jay Lycurgo, Siân Phillips, Shaun Parkes. According to the official synopsis, the film is “a dark comedy thriller about a seemingly average suburban family with a juicy secret: they are vampires. In the light of day, the Radleys might seem normal, but they can only abstain from their natural cravings for so long until the bloody truth bubbles to the surface and turns their quiet country life upside down.”
