Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge fan of the shark horror film sub-genre, but I think this one takes the cake for the lamest idea I’ve ever heard regarding these types of films. With the recent success SyFy has had with Sharknado, they’re chumming the waters with more shark films hoping to hit pay dirt yet again. We’ve had 2-Headed Sharks, Sand Sharks, Swamp Sharks, Snow Sharks, but now comes the latest, Ghost Shark. We’ve got the new trailer, clips and one-sheet for this upcoming film debuting on SyFy on August 27th for your enjoyment down below.
Written and directed by Griff Furst (Wolvesbayne, Swamp Shark, Arachnoquake) it stars Mackenzie Rosman, Dave Randolph-Mayhem Davis, Richard Moll (“Bull” on Night Court), Michelle DeVito, Shawn C. Phillips and Jaren Mitchell.
Plot Synopsis
Last Fourth of July, teenager Christy Bruce disappeared from a high school beach party. Her severed arm washed ashore a day later. Drunken sea captain Blaise Shaw became a hero to the small seaside community of Harmony after killing the great white shark that was deemed responsible, but the Christy Bruce murder was no shark attack. Blaise turns to ghost hunter Ava Conte, who is skeptical but intrigued by his ghost shark ramblings. With preparations for a massive July 4th celebration rapidly approaching, they soon find themselves embroiled in a conspiracy of sex and murder involving the town’s wealthiest and most powerful citizens. Unprepared to contend with a Ghost Shark that can hunt on land, sea, as well as anywhere there is enough water or rain to sustain its phantom form, Blaise and Ava must uncover the truth about the towns dark past or fall victim to the Ghost Shark.
