The ocean’s back on its nonsense again, and this time it’s packing teeth the size of kitchen knives.

Plaion Pictures has locked in a May 18th digital release for Killer Whale, a survival horror-thriller that swaps out friendly aquarium vibes for something a lot more bitey.

Directed by Jo-Anne Brechin (who also co-wrote alongside Katharine McPhee), the film drops us into open water with two best friends, Trish and Maddie, played by Virginia Gardner and Melanie Jarnson. What starts as your standard ‘let’s go somehwere nice and secluded’ scenario quickly turns into a full-blown aquatic nightmare when they come face-to-face with an orca that did not wake up feeling charitable.

But this isn’t just fins and fury, there’s plenty of baggage in the water too. The pair are dragging some unresolved past traumas along for the ride, because nothing says great survival odds like emotional damage and a highly intelligent apex predator circling beneath you.

Produced by Steve Jaggi, Lionel Hicks, and Kylie Pascoe, Killer Whale looks to lean hard into that stripped-down, man-vs-nature brutality.

Killer Whale looks to be a… whale of a time.

Yeah. I went there.
