GHOST SHARK

When a great white shark eats the potential catch of a sport fisherman, the man and his daughter violently retaliate by sadistically torturing and killing the shark. The shark's corpse then sinks to the bottom of an underwater cave. It is subsequently resurrected as a ghost due to the cave's mysterious paranormal properties.

Now hungry for revenge, the ghost shark eats its killers, along with the captain of their boat. It eventually sets its sights on the rest of the local community in the seaside town of Smallport, Florida. Due to the shark's new spectral form, it can attack and kill anyone as long as there is even the smallest amount of water nearby. This allows it to emerge from a swimming pool, a bathtub, a bucket, a metal pipe and even a drinking cup. It kills many people in several unexpected locations.

Though the terror is seemingly out of control, a group of young people trying to find answers end up having their pleas ignored. The local mayor is in the midst of his re-election campaign, and other authorities are unwilling to believe in the ghost. The teenager Ava Conte (Mackenzie Rosman) vows to put an end to the ghost shark, after it devours her father and several friends. She teams up with a local lighthouse keeper named Finch (Richard Moll). Finch is a drunken figure who claims to know the secrets to the shark's new-found form. Reportedly, when the cave was still above water, it was where a dying African-American slave put a voodoo curse on the entire town.

After being arrested, harassed, threatened, and otherwise impeded in their struggles, the group finally manages to lay the creature to rest.

A group of young people, after being ignored by authorities, team up with the local lighthouse keeper to finally lay the ghost shark to rest and end its reign of terror.

The film concludes with the supernatural threat ultimately defeated through the combined efforts of determined teens and the eccentric Finch, underscoring the value of persistence in the face of disbelief. The ending also nods to classic creature features, where local legends and folklore are key to vanquishing the menace, wrapping up the rampage with a wink at its own over-the-top premise.
