'Dangerous Animals' Review: A Twisted Game of Man vs. Shark You Won't Want to Miss
Jaws is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, and what better way to pay homage to Steven Spielberg's masterpiece than with another shark movie? The timing may be a coincidence, but IFC and Shudder's latest team-up is set to spook moviegoers right out of their seats. From director Sean Byrne, Dangerous Animals premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, and will soon be unleashed on the rest of the world. But brace yourself: there's a plethora of hard R-rated violence, heart-wrenching moments of torture and immersive moments with ravenous sharks. Ultimately, Australian performer Jai Courtney, whom DCU fans might know best as Captain Boomerang, steals the show. But Dangerous Animals also succeeds by elevating the "torture porn" subgenre with first-rate performances, a unique setting, a fleshed-out script and impressive technical feats.
