Return of the Killer Shrews
Return of the Killer Shrews
THE KILLER SHREWS ARE BACK.
A TV Reality show hires CAPTAIN THORNE SHERMAN (James Best) and his boat to cargo supplies to the deserted offshore island they’re using as a filming location. Thorne would have refused the job because he’s been to that island before and still sees it in his nightmares. So they set sail – to a place Thorne Sherman never wanted to see again as long as he lived: the island of the KILLER SHREWS.
As the TV crew and two-fisted animal expert JOHNNY RENO (John Schneider) shoot their reality show, some of the cast and crew go missing, attacked and eaten in a bloody feeding frenzy by strange creatures. Only cute young camera operator MICKEY (Jennifer Lyons) and her on-again off-again boyfriend SAM (Jason Shane Scott) grow concerned about their vanished friends. And Captain Thorne grows uneasy. Only he knows the island holds hidden danger. The place is crawling with giant Killer Shrews, the result
of a 50 year old experiment gone terribly wrong.
No one is prepared when the Killer Shrews attack, devouring everything in their path! Thorne moves the panicked and blood-spattered survivors to a safe house – the same scientific compound where the man- eating shrews were spawned half a century ago. Everyone is grateful, but creeping suspicion grows. How does Thorne know about this place? And what is his connection to the Killer Shrews?
But these questions can wait. The Shrews are fast and ferocious, able to strip flesh from their screaming victims in seconds. And they are ready to attack – now! Soon, more crew members fall prey to the creatures’ ravenous, slathering jaws. To make matters worse, JERRY (Bruce Davison), a mysterious castaway, stalks the survivors. Jerry has a strange hold over the ravenous Killer Shrews, and at times, he can control the monsters.
Thorne and Jerry share a strange history, a past linked to the horrific, flesh-eating Shrews. Now Jerry is targeting Thorne for bloody vengeance, and no one is safe from the dangerously insane castaway. Fleeing the relentless, carnivorous Shrews, Mickey takes refuge in a cave. But her safe haven turns to shocking horror when Mickey is trapped by Jerry. Sam braves the hordes of flash-eating monsters to rescue Mickey from the madman’s lair, but Jerry gets the upper hand. On this island, it’s eat or be eaten, and Jerry decides who is hunter and who is prey.
As the number of survivors dwindle they must overcome their differences to avoid getting eaten alive. But before Thorne can get off the island he must face his horrific past – and a final showdown with Jerry. Time is running out for the survivors to get off the island before the voracious monsters turn them all into
bloody Shrew bait.
