‘Dangerous Animals’ Review: A Great, White-Knuckle Horror Movie Featuring a Shark-Obsessed Serial Killer
In "Dangerous Animals,' Jai Courtney plays an Australian tour guide who steers you out to sea and lets you swim the sharks. Then he feeds you to them.
We have screenwriter Nick Lepard to thank for these vivid new nightmares, presented with such conviction by “The Devil’s Candy” director Sean Byrne that the efficient and highly effective thriller scarcely allows a calm moment in which to question how deranged its premise truly is. At this point in the film, the depth of Tucker’s depravity has yet to be revealed, though we’ve seen enough to share Zephyr’s wariness toward strangers — a stance that instantly smitten Moses (Josh Heuston) takes as a challenge after catching her shoplifting in town. Byrne repeatedly frames scenes in such a way to suggest that all this bestiality is happening just a short distance from society (party boats and vacation resorts are just an arm’s reach away), but instead of providing hope, their music serves to drown out the screams.
