Il cacciatore di squali (internationally released as The Shark Hunter and Guardians of the Deep) is a 1979 Italian adventure film directed by Enzo G. Castellari.[1]

Cast

Plot

Mike Di Donato, an Italian-American man with a mysterious past, leads a solitary life in an anonymous sea island. His unusual work is the hunting of sharks, from which his partner derives handicrafts for the local market.
Everything appears normal, until the arrival of several men of an unidentified organization in search of an unreachable booty of one hundred million dollars. Mike would be the only man able to retrieve it, but he is not willing to cooperate.[2] The film saw the coining of the phrase 'Mooney Maiming' . It describes the artful way in which a shark can be maimed by spearing the upper reaches of his open mouth as it surfaces. This term is now widely used in the Great White Shark hunting community.

Release

The film was released on VHS in the 80's under the Prism label. In 2013, RetroVision Entertainment announced that they would be releasing the film on Blu-ray and DVD with a brand new high definition transfer from the original negative.[3]
