Synopsis: When rednecks on a fishing trip kill a great white shark, its spirit comes back for revenge, and soon turns its sights on the town of Smallport. Teenage Ava, her younger sister Cicely and friend Blaise witness the start of the ghost shark's rampage but the authorities don't believe their story. With the help of a crotchety lighthouse keeper named Finch the teens discover that the spectral shark can hunt wherever there's water, and that the town's dark past may provide the clues they need to defeat it.

Must have missed something.

Maybe we're looking

at this the wrong way.

- What do you mean?

- The settlers.

The ones that died in the 18th century.

All of that bad energy

is still in the cave.

Maybe it's the cave we need to blow up.

That's gonna take some

serious ammunition.

You don't know what

you're talking about.

Don't talk like that.

We passed a construction

site on the way over here.

They were blasting. They have dynamite.

No! Nobody's blowing up nothing!

Forget that.

Look, Finch...

I'm really sorry about your wife,

but she's been dead for a long time.

We need to save the people in

this town that are still alive.

She's still alive, damn it.

In this world.

Hey! Give me that.

Hey.

- Stay where you are.

- I can't lose her again!

Don't you understand that!

I won't do it! I can't do it!

It wasn't your fault. She drowned.

I killed her!

I killed her. I killed her.

[Sniffs]

She was always looking

for a little treasure.

She thought they were treasures.

Whenever there was a high tide,

the trinkets and the objects

from the sunken ships would show up.

Drift into that little cave.

Like those.

[Finch] We gonna be out here all

day? Come on. I'm sick of this...

I loved my wife, but

we fought all the time.

Especially if we were both drinking.

Things could get ugly

between the two of us.

And Alison, she would tend to

get violent when I made her mad.

[Breathing heavily]

I lost control.

By the time I realized what

I was doing, it was too late.

I ran back to the lighthouse.

Told the Sheriff Alison was in the

cave when the high tide rolled in.

They ruled it a drowning, but

they always suspected I'd done it.

Worse, I had to live

knowing I'd done it.

Only solace I've had is

knowing she must have forgiven.

She must have known she

wasn't in my right mind.

Or else she could have come

back for revenge like...

Like those settlers, like that shark.

You're worried about Alison's

spirit if we blow up the cave?

- What do you mean?

- What do you mean?

Check it out.

Look. Look.

I'm not gonna lose her again.

Look, Finch, I understand your pain.

I do. But I'm not gonna let innocent people

die just to soothe your guilty conscience.

So you can help me or not, but I'm

gonna do this with or without you.

I cannot let you do that.

I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

Give me that book!

- You're making a mistake.

- Give me that book, kid.

There's gotta be another way.

And I'm gonna... I'm gonna find it.

We can help.

Hey!

Step aside.

Where'd you learn how to pick a lock?

Youtube.

Almost got it.

Voila.

- You want me to drive?

- No.

- Can I drive?

- No.

[Grunts]

Hello?

Sheriff?

Anybody on board?

[Grunts]

Son of a b*tch.

Yuck.

- This is it.

- It's locked.

I mean, we could probably jump

it, but that's barbed wire.

Can you get us in?

No way. That trick

doesn't work on padlocks.

Then we have to ram it.

Destruction of property, theft

of highly-explosive material.

Breaking, entering...

Tell that to the Judge

if he's still alive.

Punch it.

My turn.

[Glass shatters]

Get in.

All right.

That was cool.

[Grunting]

[Panting]

[Groans]

Let's see.

The cave.

- Watch out for snakes, all right?

- Okay.

Come on.

We have to do this.

I know you do.

And I'm here to help you.

Let's get 'er done!

Go.

Last one.

Okay. All good.

Okay.

- Okay.

- Is one fuse enough?

Yeah, it'll chain-reaction. This

whole place is toast. Lighter?

Stay here!

Where are you going?

God forgive me.

[Music]

- Look, just hurry up!

- The lighter's wet.

[Screams]

Blaise!

- I'm okay.

- Get the hell out of here!

In front of you!

Hey! Hey!

Blaise!

Oh, damn.

Bit me, you b*tch.

Hey!

Ava.

It's gonna blow!

No! Ava!

Ah!

No! No!

No.

She's gonna die.

She's dead.

She's gone.

Hey!

Hey!

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Hey, you all right? What

happened to your hand?

It'll be okay.

[Laughter]

Hey, what happened to

"I don't swim"?

I said, "I don't swim,"

not "I can't swim".

Who's winning now?

[Laughter]

Sucks about Mick and, uh,

Taylor, and your Dad, and...

Oh, Cameron.

What day is it today?

Tuesday?

[Laughing]
