A grimy new trailer with an old-school grindhouse style has been published for Ninja vs. Shark, an upcoming live-action film that pits the deadly art of assassination against a supernatural sea creature. The trailer (below) is extremely bloody and gruesome, so viewer discretion is advised.

Set in the Edo period, the story of Ninja vs. Shark takes place in the remote village of Okitsu. Koushirou (played by Yuichi Nakamura), an evil cult leader, uses ninjutsu to ensorcel sharks and forces them to attack local pearl divers so the cult can steal the pearls from their mangled corpses. Desperate for help, the village chief hires Kotaro Shiozaki (played by Kohshu Hirano), a guard at a nearby temple, but Kotaro soon finds his path blocked by Kikuma (Kanon Miyahara), a lady ninja, and a gigantic shark that doesn’t seem like something from this world…

 

 

Ninja vs. Shark is directed by Koichi Sakamoto (BLACKFOX: Age of the Ninja, Hurricane Polymar) and stars Kohshu Hirano (Ultraman Z) and Shun Nishime (Kamen Rider Ghost). The film hits theaters in Japan on April 14, 2023.
