From Rambo: Last Blood director Adrian Grünberg, The Black Demon is based on a Mexican legend, and IGN has debuted the action-horror movie’s official trailer this week.
The Black Demon will release exclusively in theaters on April 28, 2023, and you can watch the trailer below. In the film, Josh Lucas battles a massive Megalodon shark.
Just how big is the movie’s shark? Jump to 2-minutes into the official trailer for The Black Demon below, which gives you a good idea of the EPIC scale of this aquatic nightmare!
This one looks like a SYFY creature feature with a budget. Count us in…
“When oilman Paul Sturges takes his family to Bahia Negra, the crown jewel of Baja and the site of Paul’s best-performing rig, the vibrant Mexican coastal town he once knew has mysteriously crumbled. In the decrepit ghost town, the last inhabitants tell Paul the offshore platform has awoken ‘El Demonio.’ Scared to be left alone, the family follows Paul out to the platform and just after they get on, the man and boat that risked bringing them is ferociously attacked by a massive black shark. This shark is unlike any other creature; a shark of legend, known as The Black Demon. It has laid claim to the local waters aggressively protecting mother nature against human threats. It kills everything and repeatedly charges the oil rig itself, threatening to destroy it. Paul and his family are stranded with the few men who have survived and now discover explosive charges have been set on the legs of the platform.
“Under constant attack by the giant monster and with the time literally ticking away, Paul must find a way to somehow get his family back to shore alive.”
Josh Lucas (The Forever Purge) stars alongside Fernanda Urrejola (Cry Macho) and Julio Cesar Cedillo (Sicario). Check out the first image above and expect more soon.
Boise Esquerra wrote the script, from a story by Carlos Cisco.
