Horror Weekly News: The Black Demon trailer drops. Two mysteries available for streaming today.

It is the year of the megalodon. 

While Meg 2: The Trench, will release later this year, The Black Demon will hit screens later in April.

The megalodon was a species of shark that went extinct millions of years ago. 

It is thought to have been almost 67ft in length and preyed on whales and sea turtles.

According to a Mexican legend, the megalodon was spotted recently and since it was a darker shade than regular sharks, it was termed as a black demon.

Whether or not it was spotted, there were reports of large teeth being found that could only belong to a large creature such as the megalodon.

The Black Demon is based on this legend.

In the movie that stars Josh Lucas and Ferrnanda Urrejola, a family gets stranded on a rig after they are attacked by a megalodon. The locals believe it to be a curse and that the creature will not stop until a sacrifice is made.

It is now up to the hero to save the whole town from this creature.

The trailer reveals an exciting plot and thrilling action. 

THE BLACK DEMON is expected to release on April 28th.
