Initially at least King Crab Attack!<\/em> was a faux trailer, created in 2008 by director Gr\u00e9goire Sivan, a student at La F\u00e9mis in Paris:<\/p>\n

KING CRAB ATTACK!<\/a> from J\u00e9r\u00f4me Lozano (Headeater and editor)<\/a> on Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Cool, eh?<\/p>\n

IMDb<\/a>, however, lists the film as being 7 minutes in length. This seems to indicate that the faux trailer has given rise to a longer short film, a possibility confirmed by the unifrance website,<\/a> which also lists it as being 7 minutes long and goes on to say that it is scheduled to be screened at assorted film festivals during 2009.<\/p>\n

Here is a rather free translation of the synopsis:<\/p>\n

Trouville-sur-Mer, a Lower Normandy resort, is an uneventful place. However, Basile, of the Coast Guard, has witnessed many strange events. Are they simple coincidence? Not for Basile. King Crab Attack!<\/em> is the trailer for this disaster movie. Release is as yet undetermined.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, the website<\/a> of\u00a0 Ca\u00efmans Productions, the film’s production company tells us:<\/p>\n

The new short film is currently in post production. It will end in late August for the first public screening September 5 at the opening of Festival Off-Courts Trouville.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, can we expect to see the longer version soon?<\/p>\n
