In the final days of World War II, a secret experiment to weaponize sharks is shut down and destroyed by the Third Reich. But now, 60 years later, a small ocean town is plagued by a bloodthirsty, mysterious creature, one built and reanimated using parts of the greatest killers to ever inhabit the sea – the Sharkenstein monster!

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Mark Polonia directed over 40 films with budgets rarely exceeding $5,000; Sharkenstein was shot in 5 days in Pennsylvania, nowhere near an ocean.
Part of the 'mockbuster' wave riding Sharknado's coattails, but with earnest DIY spirit that SyFy channel money can't fake.
