“Tell me that ain’t the greatest show on Earth.” IFC Films has revealed the official trailer for Dangerous Animals, an unsettling horror thriller by filmmaker Sean Byrne – best known for his other two horror films The Loved Ones and The Devil’s Candy. This is his first feature since 2015, and it’s premiering at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival this month. When Zephyr, a savvy & free-spirited 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. Starring Jai Courtney as the killer, Hassie Harrison as the surfer, along with Josh Heuston and Ella Newton. Trapped on a killer’s boat with hungry sharks circling below, a surfer must outwit and escape from a predator more dangerous than the ocean itself – will she successfully escape, or become the next offering? Sean Byrne returns with his third visceral feature – in theaters this June. Is he training these sharks? Or just feeding girls to them? What is this wacko up to on this rusty boat?
Here’s the main official trailer for Sean Byrne’s film Dangerous Animals, direct from IFC’s YouTube:
