The Black Demon 2023 Movie Review Trailer Poster Online

A cursed megalodon shark is no laughing matter, as seen in an exclusive clip from The Black Demon. Directed by Rambo: Last Blood's Adrian Grunberg, the horror thriller centers on an oil tanker who takes his family on vacation to visit a rig in Baja, only to discover that he is currently under constant attack by a ferocious megalodon shark. Yellowstone's Josh Lucas leads the cast of The Black Demon alongside Fernanda Urrejola, Julio Cesar Cedillo, Venus Ariel and Héctor Jiménez.

Oilman Paul Sturges' (Lucas) idyllic family vacation turns into a nightmare when they encounter a ferocious megalodon shark that will stop at nothing to protect his territory. Stranded and under constant attack, Paul and his family must find a way to get his family back to shore alive before he strikes again in this epic battle between humans and nature.

After Jaws popularized the subgenre, the shark attack movie has undergone a variety of transformations over the years, transitioning from the raw horror of Steven Spielberg's blockbuster classic to the campy B-movie aesthetic of Deep Blue Sea in the '90s. Since then, it's seen a mix of serious, self-aware endeavors at the turn of the millennium, including Open Water based on a true found-footage story, the increasingly comedic Sharknado franchise, and the big-budget The Megalodon, whose sequel launches later this summer.

While The Black Demon seems to be taking a generally serious approach to its shark story, it also seems to have a deeper message than most other movies of its kind. By setting the film aboard an oil rig and in a town seemingly struggling financially, the plot could explore the real effects oil drilling has both on Earth when it results in spills into the ocean, and the economic ramifications it has. large corporations when moving. its operations to small towns.

Although the exclusive clip of The Black Demon shows that the film won't stop at its shark attacks, its indie production nature could make the filmmakers look to focus more on the humans at the center of the story, namely their ties to the oil platform. location. Only time will tell if the movie goes for a timely message about Earth consciousness or some classic B-movie thrills when it hits theaters on April 28.

There have been several novels that fit that profile, as did the first season of Andor, and now, four episodes in, it looks like the new Star Wars series The Acolyte, set a century before the movies, also fits the bill. in that category. .
