‘Sharkasaurus’ Is Coming Your Way This April

From writer-director Spencer Estabrooks comes Sharkasaurus, the feature film based on the short film, by the same name. In the film, “faith and facts collide on a Creationist themed golf course when the daughter of a widowed creationist falls for the adopted son of a gay paleontologist. Unbeknownst to the lovers, a prehistoric dino-shark has emerged from hibernation leaving a trail of death and destruction. Will the creationist and paleontologist settle their ideological differences or will Sharkasaurus devour them all? The theme of Sharkasaurus is evolution. All central characters go through a transformation or metamorphosis. When faced with the might and awesome power of Sharkasaurus stubborn characters are forced to work together, adapt and become the best versions of themselves before they are killed in a terrifyingly hideous way.” Sharkasaurus swims in on April 23, 2018.

‘The Meg’ Trailer Announced With New Photo

One of this year’s most highly-anticipated films is Jon Turteltaub’s The Meg, based on the novel series by Steve Alten. It’s about a Megalodon, a giant prehistoric shark, what’s not to love? Alten himself has just confirmed that the trailer for The Meg will be swimming in sometime early next month, followed by its theatrical release this summer. In the film, “A deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific…with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep-sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that years before, Taylor had encountered this

‘Deep Blue Sea 2’ Trailer Reminds Us Creating Smart Sharks Is A Terrible Idea

Earlier this year we reported that a sequel to 1999’s killer shark movie Deep Blue Sea was in the works. The sequel, which filmed this summer in Cape Town, South Africa, has received a 2018 release and an R rating for “creature violence, gore, and for language”.
