 “They came with beauty. They brought death.”

Prepare to plunge into a haunting and atmospheric nightmare as Invasion of the Mermaids (2025) redefines the myth of the mermaid — transforming the mystical sea creatures into terrifying apex predators. This bold new thriller merges ancient legends with modern paranoia in a visually stunning, emotionally chilling tale of survival.

 SYNOPSIS

When a deep-sea drilling operation uncovers an ancient trench off the coast of Iceland, an elite marine research team is dispatched to investigate. What they discover is something that should never have been disturbed — a lost aquatic civilization, hidden for millennia beneath the waves.

Shortly after the first contact, coastal towns begin to fall silent. Fishermen vanish. Whales beach themselves in panic. Then come the siren songs.

Soon, the world realizes that mermaids are real. But they are not the enchanting beings from bedtime stories. These creatures are intelligent, ruthless, and determined to reclaim the oceans — even if it means drowning humanity beneath the tides.

As governments scramble, and panic spreads, a small group of survivors must uncover the truth behind the mermaids’ ancient grudge… before it’s too late.
