The Last Shark aka Great White (1981) [Treasured Films]

[dallywhitty]

Treasured Films are releasing Enzo G. Castellari's The Last Shark on Blu-ray in September. The disc was originally slated to ship in late June, but has been indefinitely delayed while an error with the disc is addressed. Replacement discs will be available to those who bought copies at the Weird Worcester convention.

Author Peter Benton (James Franciscus) finds his idyllic summer thrown into a tailspin when he learns of an angry
35 feet long great white shark is out for blood and targeting local swimmers at the nearby beach resort. The mayor doesn't seem to give a damn, so it's up to him and veteran shark hunter Ron Hamer (Vic Morrow) to put an end to the great white's bloody rampage. Sound familiar?

Boasting some truly memorable and gory set pieces, especially one involving a helicopter, and a catchy and killer soundtrack merging the best of disco and the De Angelis brothers; THE LAST SHARK is an essential entry in the dubious Italian Sharksploitation sub-genre and directed by none other than celebrated Italian action maestro Enzo G. Castellari (The Inglorious Bastards, High Crime) this high seas eco-horror makes its UK Blu-ray debut loaded with brand new extra features in this much-treasured special edition!
