When Science Unleashes a Predator on Land

Sharks already rule the seas — but what if one could walk on land? Land Shark (2020) takes the classic monster-movie formula and gives it a bizarre genetic twist, turning mankind’s greatest ocean predator into a nightmare that no coastline can contain.

The Plot

A team of scientists, driven by ambition and hubris, experiment with genetic engineering to create a new breed of shark. Their goal: adapt it to survive outside water. Their result: a killing machine that doesn’t just swim — it hunts across the land.

What begins as a secret project soon spirals into chaos. With the creature unleashed, the line between laboratory and battlefield collapses, and survival becomes a desperate race against a monster that’s never out of its element.
