Ice Sharks

2016 ·1h 25m · ★ 4.8 (120)

A new breed of aggressive, ravenous sharks cracks the frozen ocean floor of an Arctic research station, devouring all who fall through. As the station sinks into frigid waters, those alive must fashion makeshift weapons or suffer the same fate.

Why it matters

A frosty creature feature that pits stranded scientists against a vicious new shark species beneath the Arctic ice.

  • Practical effects lean on cheap CG, but the frozen setting adds a claustrophobic chill to the standard survival formula.
  • For fans of low-budget creature flicks craving toothy terror in an underexplored environment.
  • Shark horror meets Arctic isolation — a niche mashup that nods to both _Jaws_ and cold-water survival thrillers.
  • Slips on pacing and tension, but the premise offers enough cold-blooded menace to keep curiosity afloat.
