And Ozploitation dates back to 1970 Dangerous animals What I remember is more from 2005 Wolf Creek. Only this time did the chaos happen in the open water. Both sadistic Australian B movies revolve around predation on the traveler's psychopathic franchise killer and supply blood, guts and torture porn, which should provide awkward entertainment for genre fans. Director Sean Byrne's fun with the junk isn't enough for the most fun, unlike some of the more ridiculous Shark movies recently. (Give me shallow,,,,, In Paris,,,,, theme.

Given the obsession with sharks in Australian beach culture and the large number of white people sliced ​​in the oceans near the western and southern coasts, the country's shark thriller production mostly lacks biting. Perhaps the main exception is the lean and despicable 2010 reefand in 2012 Bait 3D Bonkers' premises earn points - in a flooded supermarket! The long-running sequel of that movie Deep waterto be presented later this year by director Renny Harlin Deep blue sea.

At the same time, here Dangerous animalsIt was a strange choice to premiere in two weeks in Cannes before its release via IFC and Shudder on June 6. Steven Spielberg jawByrne's good-looking movies have at least one difference being one of the most annoying works for a while.

That's because the slaughter on the ship matches on the deck where human prey hangs from a winch and then puts bleeding into the waters of sharks, while Tucker (Jay Courtney) videos his secret snuff library, a creepy feeding frenzy. If that wasn't creepy enough, he locked the victim's hair into the packaging of each piece of tape.

In just 20 years, Courtney went from tying a young big guy to a brave Musclehead to Oliver Reed. He likes skilled characters actors mold, injecting a man's big bear with a savage charm, cunning threat and fierce cruelty, which hints at the roots of his lack of fanatical fanaticism. Not that Nick Lepard's script offers a lot in terms of psychological insight.

Tucker operates in tourist Mecca in Surfers Paradise on Queensland's Gold Coast, Captain Tucker, a weathered old fishing boat, on which he takes a "Swim with Sharks" tour, usually giving young travelers a cage diving thrill. Why don't these people change their minds when they ask questions like this: "So no one knows you're here?" is anyone's guess.

He welcomed Canadian Liam Greinke and his British hotel guest, Ella Newton, to board Liam Greinke, and away from shore while making uncomfortable jokes about "human chum". Tucker lightens - or enhances? - They put the cage into a group of hovering sharks by singing the nerves of the creepy shark ditty and then giving them the experience of publicity. They showed up with excitement, but it didn't last long when Tucker unceremoniously sent Greg, and Heather screamed in horror.

Meanwhile, back in town, Moses (Josh Heuston) is in trouble, a young real estate agent with the body of a lingerie model. When he discovered that American free spirit surfer Zephyr (Hassie Harrison) shoplifted from a convenience store, he laughed at her for helping her jump out of the car. Soon, jumpers are not all they connect, and the thriving sex becomes a sweet afterglow (she quotes Take a break In him) hints at potential romance. But when the conversation became too intimate, Zephyr rode in the assault van in her residential area.

Marco didn't want her to slip away, guessing where she was going to surf before dawn. But he got there too late and Tucker dragged her out of the surfboard bag. (By the way, very use of multi-function utility.) She woke up to the boat on the bed opposite Heather, in the exposed cell, the only amenities. The name on the scratched wall is a bad sign. When Moses saw Zephyr's van being towed, he knew something was wrong and as the police were delaying the investigation, he began to dig his own.

Lyrics of the Crowded House "Despicable to Me" - One of the few choices of Oz-Rock Nuggets scattered in Michael Yezerski's groan and shot, suggesting that Zephyr was not programmed as a helpless victim:

Harrison (Yellow stone) is the real asset here. At first, she looked so distracted as Jennifer Lawrence that they should be treated as sisters. But this did not blend her distinctive survival instinct, tenacity and resourcefulness, and the role she played played the role of a woman who grew up in a foster home that could not be kept away from. Zephyr's surfing represents the ultimate escape.

Tucker said in her first sign of resistance that he liked a fighter: "Do a better show." She was not afraid of his big wind poses about animal hierarchy, the importance of keeping order in the ecosystem and his true spiritual call to serve God below. She knew his type and seemed to hit a few nerves for the blunt reading of monsters like him.

For his entertainment, Tucker drags Zephyr to the deck and ties her to a chair to witness a terrible sight. He tells her: "This is the time for you to shine tomorrow night." Courtney's performance works best in the winning mental mode, so when Tucker rips philosophically, that's the script's fault. He is the most terrifying moment in wild moments, for example, when he roars and growls over tools around town, discovering another potential victim.

But his outstanding scenes may be the post-revelry dance in the main cabin of the boat, waving wine in the underwear, stabbing himself in the room, and wearing a robe, wearing Stevie Wright's 1974 ounce banger, "evie." Just like the Butch version of jame Gumb The silence of the lamb Dance, Tucker's bronzed hairy gut proudly declares his unpopular "Strayan manhood."

The film lags behind this as Zephyr's escape attempt becomes repetitive. Every victory will lead to setbacks, including the invisibility of Moses on the ship. But both Harrison and Houston give viewers the characters rooted, which maintains the bloody final scene.

Byrne becomes the horror auteur with his twists and turns, subversive virgin as herself Relatives And its follow-up actions in the United States Devil's Candy. Here he is too stable in jump panic, but by smoothly blending the manipulation footage of the real shark with live action, he makes informed decisions that eliminate the idea of ​​mechanical creatures and minimize CG requirements.

Anyone who is disgusted with physical and mental torture may find Dangerous animals An offensive turn, but other scents to violence should also find something juicy to pierce.
