And of course, a human is the most dangerous animal of all here.

IFC Films and Shudder have announced that they will bring DANGEROUS ANIMALS exclusively to theaters June 6. Directed by Sean Byrne (THE LOVED ONES, THE DEVIL’S CANDY) from a script by Nick Lepard, it stars Jai Courtney, Hassie Harrison and Josh Heuston. The synopsis: “When Zephyr [Harrison], a rebellious surfer, is abducted by a shark-obsessed serial killer [Courtney] and held captive on his boat, she must figure out how to escape before he carries out a ritualistic feeding to the sharks below.”
