New Year’s Eve marks the beginning of an alien infestation in CANARIES, which genre sales outfit Devilworks is bringing to the Cannes Film Festival next month. We’ve got the exclusive first look at the trailer and poster.

Written and directed by Peter Stray, CANARIES was shot in Wales and mixes science fiction, horror and comedy. The cast is headed by Robert Pugh, Hannah Daniel, Sheena Bhattessa, Craig Russell, Kai Owen and Richard Mylan. The story focuses on a group of friends who get together at a New Year’s bash in a small Welsh town and must fight against an invasion force of time-traveling aliens.
