Movies like Dangerous Animals

“Dangerous Animals (2025) is a 2020s Australian‑tinged slasher/folk-horror that frames maritime isolation as a philosophical predicament. It stages a captive-versus-predator conflict on a confined boat, articulated through handheld intimacy and high-contrast-chiaroscuro to collapse horizon and time. Lupani finds the film necessary because it forces a confrontation between ritualized human violence and the sea as mythic counterweight.”
