After an all-night graduation beach party, a group of hung-over students wake up under blazing sun to find their numbers somewhat depleted. An enormous alien creature has burrowed down deep and anyone foolish enough to make contact with the sand finds themselves at the mercy of a sea of flesh-eating tentacles.
Can you say Blood Beach?
Ok so maybe that’s not fair. After all Jeffrey Bloom’s 1980 fear-flick, despite having a similar premise – something eating people on the beach, dragging them under the sand – is world’s apart from the gory body-horror of Isaac Gabaeff’s film. Whereas that film often played for oddball humour both intentionally and unintentionally, The Sand plays things very straight.

Tagline: "This beach is killer." The b-movie madness continues with The Sand. This killer beach movie, involves a strange marine organism and it has a thirst for human flesh. The body count piles high in the film's first trailer. And, The Sand stars: Jamie Kennedy (Scream), Brooke Butler (All Cheerleaders Die), Cleo Berry (Zombie Apocalypse) and Nikki Leigh. As well, The Sand debuts, on DVD, in late October. In the film's trailer, a beach party turns into a bloodbath. Keg stands and bikinis are swapped for screams and amputations. You see, a new organism is inhabiting a sunny beach and no one gets to put on sunscreen, without the threat of a skin-removing rash. As well, the film will be shown at London's Film4Frightfest. The film festival begins in late August and dozens and dozens of horror films will be shown here. More on the release of The Sand is hosted below.

New York -- An overweight man who unwittingly became an amputee in advertisements that New York City is posting to warn against diabetes says he's worried the ads might hurt his acting career.
Twenty-seven-year-old Cleo Berry of Los Angeles says he was "beyond shocked" upon discovering that a photograph he posed for several years ago in Manhattan had turned up on the Internet – but showing him without one leg. The photo was digitally altered to make it look like Berry's right leg is missing. It appears on an ad warning that growing portion sizes can lead to diabetes and amputations.
City officials have defended the practice as common in advertising.
