Giant and\/or mutant sharks aren’t showing any sign of abandoning their attack on our cultural sensibilities! Latest news from the irrepressible Brett Kelly<\/a>\u00a0 — B-film exploitation dynamo — is that he has begun pre-production on Jurassic Shark<\/em>, the story of two groups of people — one, a group of students, the other, a group of criminals — who are shipwrecked on an island by a giant shark. The island was once used for illegal drilling, and the oil company inadvertantly released the giant shark from its slumber. The result will be bloody mayhem.<\/p>\n

Kelly’s films are self-aware celebrations of whatever B-film tradition enters the producer\/director’s red-eyed sights, beautifully capturing the tawdry splendours, and glorious excitement, of\u00a0 low-budget exploitation cinema. From that poster, he’s definitely on the case here. Nice pun, too!<\/p>\n

Kelly told Undead Backbrain that the cast hasn’t been finalised yet, but the script was written by David A. Lloyd (Iron Soldier<\/em>) with Trevor Payer (She-Rex<\/em>). He begins filming in September.<\/p>\n

In passing, I notice that he’s got a zombie flick on the way:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I wonder if it’s a musical…<\/p>\n
