Australian filmmaker Sean Byrne doesn’t mind making his fans wait, because the wait is usually worth it. 2009’s The Loved Ones is considered a cult classic, and 2015’s The Devil’s Candy, while under the radar, has its share of followers, too. And now Byrne is back a full decade later with Dangerous Animals, a serial killer movie with an interesting twist.
Jai Courtney (Suicide Squad), Hassie Harrison (Yellowstone) and Josh Heuston (Dune: Prophecy) star in Dangerous Animals, about a surfer trapped on a boat with a shark-obsessed serial killer.
The film has a script by Nick Lepard, who wrote Longlegs director Osgood Perkins’ upcoming horror Keeper starring Tatiana Maslany.
SYNOPSIS: When Zephyr, a rebellious surfer, is abducted by a shark-obsessed serial killer and held captive on his boat, she must figure out how to escape before he carries out a ritualistic feeding to the sharks below.
Dangerous Animals hits theaters on June 6th from IFC Films and Shudder.
