Zombie Shark is a genre-driven survival horror that emphasizes immediate physical threats over social subversion. While Misty Talley’s direction offers a female perspective in a male-dominated genre, the film adheres to traditional creature-feature clichés. The narrative revolves around a group of friends battling experimental hybrids. This focus on survivalist logic limits opportunities for deep character exploration or diverse identity representation. Ultimately, the film operates as a standard TV-movie action piece. It relies on established horror frameworks rather than intentional deconstruction of social hierarchies.
