A killer surf movie
An old Hawaii myth of a plank-board cursed to protect the queen and her heirs is awakened. Will Police Captain Merry Miller (Amy Jennings) be able to protect her daughter Lili (Leilani Ramos), descendant of the throne, and stop the devil board from absorbing the soul of every last surfer in Kailua town?

Murmurs of danger. Whispers of murder and betrayal. A hushed tale of an old plank board.

Hawaiian locals talk story of a fierce king, his radiant queen and his scheming brother. Amidst a celebratory luau, the king’s brother over powers the queen and takes her honor atop an old plank board in the water at night. Furious, the king calls upon the spirits of his ancestors to deliver a curse. A pig’s foot, the vessel to enact revenge, is thrown at the brother but misses, and instead hits the old board, cursing it to an eternity.

Some say the old plank board still floats adrift at sea. Others say the curse has been passed to newer boards throughout the generations. Still, it waits silently adrift waiting to protect the queen’s heirs, awakened only by the stench of fresh pork. The more the board kills, the stronger it becomes.

This board is back.
This board is deadly.

 

This board is NOT human!
