Nazi Zombies Pilot Flying Undead Sharks in New Film ‘Sky Sharks’
Just when you thought low budget killer shark flick concepts couldn’t get any sillier than the ones found in films like Sharktopus, Sharnknado, and Dinoshark, iHorror is here to remind you that things can always get weirder.
Case in point is the new film Sky Sharks, from director Marc Fehse. As you might imagine, Sky Sharks involves flying sharks killing people up in the not-so-friendly skies. What you might not first assume by the title is that these (zombie!) sharks will be ridden around by recently thawed out Nazi soldiers, effectively being “piloted” by the undead Germans. Yep, you read that right, the world now has its first Nazi zombie/flying shark movie. Truly now is the time for humanity to cease all creative endeavors, for this idea is unlikely to be topped any time soon.
Set during the final months of WWII, Sky Sharks’ plot kicks off after a team of Arctic geologists accidentally uncover the remains of a secret Nazi laboratory buried beneath the ice. The aforementioned zombie shark wranglers are then set free, taking to the air with plans to bring down death and destruction on any planes unfortunate enough to cross their path. An elite task force is assembled to combat the otherworldly threat, but is soon forced to wage aerial combat against an enemy that’s already long since met their maker.
Sky Sharks’ cast includes a few notable names to us genre freaks, including Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa (Mortal Kombat), Robert LaSardo (Autopsy), Nice Principe (Laid to Rest), Lar-Park Lincoln (Friday the 13th: Part VII), and Lynn Lowry (The Crazies). The film is set for release in the U.S. on September 1st, 2017, so it’ll sadly be quite awhile until we can see this one for ourselves. Still, Nazi zombies riding zombie sharks! We now live in a world where that is a thing!

‘Talk To Me’ Directors Danny & Michael Philippou Reteam With A24 for ‘Bring Her Back’
A24 didn’t waste any time snatching up the Philippou brothers (Michael and Danny) for their next feature titled Bring Her Back. The duo have been on a short list of young directors to watch for since the success of their horror film Talk to Me.
The South Australian twins surprised many people with their debut feature. They were mostly known for being YouTube pranksters and extreme stuntmen.
It was announced today that Bring Her Back will star Sally Hawkins (The Shape of Water, Willy Wonka) and begin filming this summer. No word yet on what this film is about.
Although its title sounds like it could be connected to the Talk to Me universe this project doesn’t appear to be related to that film.
However, in 2023 the brothers revealed a Talk to Me prequel was already made which they say is a screen life concept.
“We actually shot an entire Duckett prequel already. It’s told entirely through the perspective of mobile phones and social media, so maybe down the line we can release that,” Danny Philippou told The Hollywood Reporter last year. “But also while writing the first film, you can’t help but write scenes for a second film. So there’s so many scenes. The mythology was so thick, and if A24 gave us the opportunity, we wouldn’t be able to resist. I feel like we’d jump at it.”
In addition, the Philippous are working on a proper sequel to Talk To Me something they say they have already written sequences for. They are also attached to a Street Fighter film.

‘Happy Death Day 3’ Only Needs Greenlight From Studio
Jessica Rothe who is currently starring in the ultra-violent Boy Kills World talked to ScreenGeek at WonderCon and gave them an exclusive update about her franchise Happy Death Day.
The horror time-looper is a popular series that did pretty well at the box office especially the first one which introduced us to the bratty Tree Gelbman (Rothe) who is being stalked by a masked killer. Christopher Landon directed the original and its sequel Happy Death Day 2U.
According to Rothe, a third is being proposed, but two major studios need to sign off on the project. Here is what Rothe had to say:
“Well, I can say Chris Landon has the whole thing figured out. We just need to wait for Blumhouse and Universal to get their ducks in a row. But my fingers are so crossed. I think Tree [Gelbman] deserves her third and final chapter to bring that incredible character and franchise to a close or a new beginning.”
The movies delve into sci-fi territory with their repeated wormhole mechanics. The second leans heavily into this by utilizing an experimental quantum reactor as a plot device. Whether this apparatus will play into the third film isn’t clear. We will have to wait for the studio’s thumbs up or thumbs down to find out.
