Feeding Frenzy

The Shark Hunter

The other shark movie from legendary action director Enzo G. Castellari (THE LAST SHARK, THE INGLORIOUS BASTARDS) brings him together with his STREET LAW and KEOMA star Franco Nero – along with a screenplay co-written by Tito Carpi (LAST CANNIBAL WORLD), insane underwater stunts by Ramón Bravo (ZOMBIE) and an outstanding score by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis (SLAVE OF THE CANNIBAL GOD) – for a high-speed, double-barreled, shark-punching blast: In a Mexican seaside village, a reclusive fisherman (Nero) with a haunted past battles cold-blooded treasure hunters to retrieve $100 million from an underwater grotto infested with killer sharks. Werner Pochath (COP GAME), Jorge Luke (TREASURE OF THE AMAZON), Eduardo Fajardo (DJANGO) and Enzo himself co-star in this “gritty action adventure that roars to life with weird audacity” (Oh, The Horror!), now scanned in 4K from the only surviving film elements, plus a Bonus Soundtrack CD and Special Features that include the first-ever on-camera reunion/reminiscence with Castellari and Nero.

Monster Shark

With Lamberto Bava (DEMONS) as director, Dardano Sacchetti (THE BEYOND), Luigi Cozzi (STARCRASH), Gianfranco Clerici (CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST), Vincenzo Mannino (HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK) and Hervé Piccini (RATS: NIGHT OF TERROR) among the screenwriters and a killer score by Fabio Frizzi (ZOMBIE), this Italian Sharksploitation favorite has a certified monster pedigree: When several locals in a coastal Florida town are found with limbs chomped off, an electronics expert (Michael Sopkiw of MASSACRE IN DINOSAUR VALLEY infamy) joins a team of marine biologists to hunt a genetically modified creature that is part shark, part octopus and 100% prehistoric fish from hell. Gianni Garko (THE PSYCHIC), William Berger (SPIDER LABYRINTH) and Dagmar Lassander (THE HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY) co-star in the complete European Version of this “one-of-a-kind gem” (The B-Movie Film Vault), newly scanned in 4K from the original camera negative with 2+ hours of Special Features and a Bonus Soundtrack CD.

Night of the Sharks

Three-time Golden Globe nominee Treat Williams of HAIR and PRINCE OF THE CITY fame took the Italian Sharksploitation plunge in this “insane and weirdly good-natured” (Oh, The Horror!) action thriller, now officially licensed on North American disc for the first time ever: Life in a quiet Mexican fishing village is ripped to pieces when a laidback guide (Williams) and his business partner (Blaxploitation legend Antonio Fargas) become entangled with international assassins, $2 million in diamonds and a local shark named Cyclops with an insatiable hunger for foolish divers. John Steiner (CALIGULA), Janet Agren (EATEN ALIVE) and Christopher Connelly (RAIDERS OF ATLANTIS) in his final film role co-star in this “unique and fun” (DTV Connoisseur) obscurity directed by Tonino Ricci (CAVE OF THE SHARKS) from a screenplay by Tito Carpi (TENTACLES) with jaw-dropping man vs. shark stunts by Ramón Bravo (ZOMBIE) and a deliriously ‘80s synth score by Stelvio Cipriani (THE GREAT ALLIGATOR), now scanned in 4K from the only known uncut 35mm print and featuring a Bonus Soundtrack CD.
