Razor-sharp teeth, pointed fins, and a powerful, muscular body – sharks are predators not to be trifled with.

Their unique appearance and dominance of the ocean have led to them becoming the subject of numerous films, often blood-soaked horrors and heart-racing thrillers.

The latest to make a splash is Dangerous Animals, directed by The Loved Ones and The Devil’s Candy creator Sean Byrne.

He puts a spin on the subgenre, introducing genre fans to charismatic villain Tucker (Jai Courtney), a serial killer who uses sharks as his weapon of choice.

His latest potential victim is Zephyr (Hassie Harrison), whom Tucker kidnaps and imprisons on his boat – but she won’t go down without a fight.
