A remote house becomes a Jurassic world in the movie debuting next month.

Uncork’d Entertainment releases HATCHED, directed by Scott Jeffrey and Rebecca J. Matthews, on DVD and digital July 6. Georgie Banks, Megan Purvis, Nicola Wright, Marshall Hawkes, Thomas Loone, Richard Kovacs, David Parkin and Nicole Nabi star (with Derek Nelson as “Private Ryan,” so at least the filmmakers show a bit of self-awareness). The synopsis: “An obsessive scientist discovers a way to bring dinosaurs back to life and when his family comes to visit, they find him dead, eaten by his creations. Now the army and their chief scientist must figure out how to keep the dinosaurs contained and then destroy them before they escape and head for the city where total destruction would occur.”
