SYNOPSIS: Captain Will McKenna and marine biologist Arden Jaymes discover why the fishing village of Cedar Bay is being depleted of its resources. What’s been devouring the fish in the sea has come ashore in search of something more substantial: human flesh. Now, as a massive storm hurls toward Cedar Bay, cutting off all outside help and contact, a mythical battle is waged between man and beast. Only Will and Arden can stop it before the creatures continue devouring Cedar Bay. And beyond.
Sea Beast was written and directed by Paul Ziller from a story by Neil Elman. Lisa Hansen, Paul Hertzberg, Lindsay MacAdam and Kirk Shaw serve as executive producers, with Breanne Hartley as producer.
