Acorn, an RLJ Entertainment Inc. brand, has detailed the Blu-ray release of Loch Ness: Series 1. The new British crime drama stars Laura Fraser (Breaking Bad, The Missing) and Siobhan Finneran (Happy Valley, Downton Abbey) as police detectives in search of a serial killer among the beautiful, haunting shores of Scotland's most iconic loch. Tightly plotted and suspenseful, this twist-filled mystery arrives on Blu-ray on October 3rd.
Set against Scotland's hauntingly beautiful landscapes, this tense thriller follows Annie Redford (Fraser), a small-town detective thrown into her first murder case. When a man is found dead at the bottom of a cliff, DCI Lauren Quigley (Finneran) arrives to lead the inquiry, along with forensic psychologist Blake Albrighton (Don Gilet). The local police clash with these outsiders, but when more bodies turn up, the team theorizes that a serial killer is stalking the shores of Loch Ness.
As the case swells to engulf the whole town, Annie becomes immersed in the investigation, unintentionally pushing away her husband (Gray O'Brien) and teenage daughter (Shona McHugh). With grief, terror, and suspicion shattering her community, Annie strives to expose the monster hiding in plain sight.
Loch Ness made its U.S. premiere in June 2017 on Acorn TV. The 2-disc, 6-episode series is presented in 1080p and DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround. Extras include:
