A campy creature-feature B-movie that leans into absurdist horror-comedy, pitting friends against mutant sharks and zombie animals in a deliberately over-the-top survival scenario.

A perfect getaway weekend turns into a nightmare for four friends who find themselves fighting for their lives against an experimental shark. In order to survive they must fight sharks, zombies, and shark zombies.
