Dolph Lundgren Takes on Killer Creatures in “Shark Lake” Trailer

It’s kind of a miracle that we’ve yet to see a movie where Dolph Lundgren wages war on murderous sharks. But if that is the film you’ve been waiting for, your wait is about to come to an end with the release of upcoming thriller Shark Lake, where Lundgren plays an ex-con who finds redemption in the form of a shark-infested lake. The newly released trailer delivers pretty much everything you’re imagining.

Fiercely protective single-mom Meredith Hendricks happens to also be the best cop in her quiet town on Lake Tahoe. When a black-market exotic species dealer named Clint, is paroled from prison, something he let loose begins to make its presence known. Swimmers and land-lovers alike begin to become part of the food chain at an unbelievable rate. Meredith and the new man in her life, a biologist named Peter, begin to investigate these brutal attacks and discover that they’re not just hunting one eating machine, but a whole family of them. After a documentary crew is devoured when they don’t take the threat seriously, it’s up to Meredith, Peter, and the unlikely hero, Clint, to stop the most dangerous thing on the planet: A mother protecting its young. Not everyone will make it out alive, but those who do will never forget this summer at Shark Lake.

Directed by Jerry Dugan, from a screenplay by David Anderson and Gabe Burnstein, the film stars Dolph Lundgren, Sara Malakul Lane, and Lily Brooks O’Briant.

Shark Lake arrives in theaters on October 2nd.
