Summer is coming, the beaches will be jammed … and we all know what lurks out there, just beneath the surface, waiting, waiting, waiting to eat.
Wild Eye Releasing, with sales and distribution support provided by MVD Entertainment Group, has this season’s reminder ready on May 11 with the DVD debut of writer/director Dustin Ferguson’s Apex Predators.
Sure, you are sitting there thinking, “Oh really, another shark movie,” but wait, when see scream queen Brinke Stevens (The Slumber Party Massacre, Repligator, Bitten: Victoria's Shadow, Hell Asylum, The Naked Monster, Die Sister, Die! … and many, many more screen delights) as the film’s star, just put aside those knee-jerk reactions and settle in because you know this shark encounter is going to have a bite!
Here, she plays Dr. Rebecca Mattei, a marine biologist, who has been called in to investigate a series of suspected shark attacks that have left the local beach strewn with the remains of sweet young things. Her partner, Doctor Eliane Ripley, is played by rising scream queen Vida Ghaffari (Holy Terror, Meathook Massacre: The Final Chapter, Ebola Rex Versus Murder Hornets) … so that’s a double-dose of scream queens!!
Right in the middle of this hunting ground is the planned opening of a new resort run by Robert Clouse Williamson (Mel Novak — Game of Death, An Eye for an Eye, An Hour to Kill, Nemesis 5: The New Model), who doesn’t want to hear about closing beaches and keeping crowds away from his resort. But, the investigation of the attacks soon leads to the suspicion that there is more than one shark responsible for all of the carnage.
Apex Predators on DVD from Wild Eye Releasing on May 11. We can tell you this much, there is a twist in the telling of this horror tale as the sharks you encounter have been up to something that may change the balance of power when it comes to going to the beach! Come for the scream queens, stay for lunch!!
