Summary
- Tadashi and Kaori are a couple on vacation in Okinawa, settling at a nearby beach
- Their day gets a turn for the worse when they are attacked by a giant fish with crab-like legs
- But this isn't the end, as an apocalypse soon ensues where an army of these fish invade from the sea
Description
Tadashi and his girlfriend Kaori go on what’s supposed to be the perfect vacation at Okinawa. But during a dive into the sea, Tadashi spots a strange fast-moving creature shot by him like a bullet. On top of that, Kaori’s sensitive nose has her complaining about the stench of the sea and the fish.
After an argument, Kaori storms out of the house, and the two discover an even more horrible smell is pervading the air: a dead fish with grotesque legs! The very next day, the town is overrun with the skittering walking dead fish, and they’re spreading through Japan...
