Batten Down The Hatches For “Ouija Shark”

by Rocco T. ThompsonJanuary 31, 2020

By ROCCO THOMPSON

If you thought a crime-stopping, cretaceous holy man was wild, wait ’til you meet the OUIJA SHARK!

When a spirit board washes up on a local beach, a group of teenage girls accidentally summon an ancient man-eating shark from beyond! With the help of an occult specialist, the girls must brave the shark’s realm to rid the world of its deadly aquatic spirit once and for all. Directed by Scott Patrick, the film stars John Migliore, Robin Hodge, Christina Roman and Zoe Towne.

Look out for OUIJA SHARK when Wild Eye Pictures (the people that brought you THE VELOCIPASTOR) sets it loose on VOD and DVD this May!
