Lizzy Caplan and Lucy DeVito's Home Invasion Goes Horribly Wrong in Trailer for Dark Comedy Thriller DRAG
A simple burglary turns into an absolute disaster in the trailer for Drag, a twisted new dark comedy thriller starring Lizzy Caplan and Lucy DeVito.
Briarcliff Entertainment has released the first trailer for the film, which follows two sisters whose plans for a quick robbery go completely off the rails thanks to one painfully unfortunate injury.
The story follows two sisters who don't exactly have the healthiest relationship. They decide to break into a rural home in upstate New York, expecting to make off with some easy loot. Unfortunately, one of them throws out her back while they're upstairs, leaving her completely immobilized.
Now, instead of making a clean getaway, the sisters have to figure out how to get out of the house before the homeowner returns. With the injured sister in serious pain and tensions already running high between them, their increasingly desperate attempts to escape turn into a chaotic nightmare.
It’s a fun concept that throws two dysfunctional siblings into a situation where they have no choice but to rely on each other. The trailer looks like it's going to deliver a nasty mix of physical comedy, escalating panic, and some seriously messed-up situations.
The film marks the feature directorial debuts of Raviv Ullman and Greg Yagolnitzer, who also co-wrote the screenplay. Yagolnitzer previously worked on Walt Breaks a Cat's Tail.
The cast also includes Christine Ko and John Stamos, while the production is something of a DeVito family affair. Danny DeVito serves as a producer alongside Lucy DeVito and Jake DeVito.
Drag made its world premiere at the 2026 SXSW Film Festival before continuing its festival run at Overlook, FilmQuest, Sitges, and Splat!FilmFest.
I like the idea of a home invasion thriller where the biggest obstacle isn't the homeowner or the police, but a completely wrecked back. It's the kind of absurd situation that could make for a hilariously painful movie, especially with Caplan and DeVito playing sisters who already can't stand each other.
Briarcliff Entertainment will release Drag in theaters on January 29, 2027.
