Shark Exorcist is a 2016 horror film written and directed by Donald Farmer and distributed by Wild Eye Releasing.[1][2]

Plot

A Devil-worshiping nun summons a demon to inhabit the body of a great white shark that terrorizes a small costal village. A priest takes it upon himself to save the day.

Critical reception

Gizmodo, “Seriously, I couldn’t be more excited for this flick. It’s completely incoherent and fucked up in a glorious, Russ Meyer kind of way. And we haven’t even gotten to the sharks or the exorcism yet! I really hope that there’s a possessed shark. Or that our hero gets possessed by a shark!”[3]

Collider, “If projects like Shark Exorcist, Sharktopus and Sharkansas Women's Prison Massacre qualified as credible filmmaking attempts, they would dominate this entire list. But, for the most part, the low-effort schlock that chums the 'sharksploitation' waters, doesn't come close.[4]

MovieWeb, “Nothing will ever be able to prepare us for the horrors of the Shark Exorcist!”, “Sure to become a cult hit.”[5]
