You know what’s worse than sharks? A serial killer who uses sharks as his weapon of choice. That’s the premise of the new Australian horror movie Dangerous Animals, which is coming to American theaters this weekend. I’d take Jaws over that any day!
Directed by Australian filmmaker Sean Byrne, with a screenplay written by Nick Lepard, Dangerous Animals stars Hassie Harrison (best known for her role as Laramie in the Paramount series Yellowstone) as a surfer girl who is abducted by a serial killer that wants to feed her to the sharks. That’s not very nice! Also starring Josh Heuston, Rob Carlton, Ella Newton, Liam Greinke, and Jai Courtney, Dangerous Animals first premiered at Cannes Film Festival last month, where it was well-received by critics. If you’re a fan of sharks, serial killers, or horror movies in general, this is the movie for you.
Read on to get all the information you need about where to watch the 2025 Dangerous Animals movie, and when we expect to be able to watch the Dangerous Animals movie on streaming on Shudder.
For now, Dangerous Animals will only available to watch in a movie theater, when it opens in the U.S. on Friday, June 6. You can find a showing near you via Fandango. Dangerous Animals is not yet available to watch online or on streaming.
Dangerous Animals is not streaming on Netflix, and likely will not be on Netflix any time soon, due to the fact that the film is an IFC Films and Shudder release, and will stream on the Shudder streaming platform, instead.
Dangerous Animals will eventually be available to buy or rent on Amazon Prime, likely in about a month, but it will not be available to stream free on Prime any time soon, because it is a Shudder original.
If you want to watch Dangerous Animals at home, you’ll have to wait for the film to be available to buy or rent on digital platforms, or wait for it to stream on Shudder, the horror-themed streaming service.
Dangerous Animals is not yet streaming on Shudder. Right now, the movie is only in theaters. We do expect to see Dangerous Animals streaming on Shudder soon, but the Dangerous Animals Shudder release date has not yet been announced. Another recent Shudder original, Azrael, came to Shudder about one month after opening in theaters. If Dangerous Animals follows the same pattern, it might come to Shudder around July 2025.
That all said, this is all speculation. If you want to watch the Dangerous Animals movie right away, you can catch the movie in theaters starting tomorrow.
