Anchor Bay Films are set to unleash Kimble Rendall’s Australian shark flick ‘Bait’ into homes this coming September. Coming your way in all sorts of forms such as DVD, Blu-ray, DVD and Blu-ray Combo pack and of course on Blu-ray 3D the thriller with bite sadly has a notably lacklustre list of bonus features which don’t appear to stretch much further than a gallery of storyboards. Hopefully more is planned for the release when it hits all of these modern day digitial discs on 18 September across the US. No word just yet on a UK release but I would envisage this going straight to DVD as well probably around October time. Check out the new Blu-ray artwork below, which is actually identical to the recent one-sheet we posted. ‘Bait’ stars Julian McMahon (‘Nip/Tuck’), Xavier Samuel (‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’), Alice Parkinson (‘Sanctum’), Phoebe Tonkin -below (‘The Secret Circle’) and Sharni Vinson (‘Blue Crush 2’).
“In a sleepy coastal resort community, shoppers at an underground supermarket find themselves terrorized by a crazed bandit when the unimaginable occurs. A monstrous freak tsunami swallows the town. Now trapped inside a flooded supermarket with an armed maniac and rushing water threatening to entomb them all in a watery grave, tensions mount, tempers snap, and the imprisoned band of survivors discover the threat from without has ignited an even more immediate threat from within. Their own desire to survive, whatever the cost. However as hostilities reach breaking point the survivors discover they are not alone. The tsunami has brought some unwanted visitors from the depths, and as the waters rise they must overcome not only the threat of drowning and the human menace within their midst, but a threat more deadly than both and far more bloodthirsty…packs of hungry tiger sharks.”
