The story

Heather is a lifeguard on a Malibu beach, alongside her ex-boyfriend Chavez (the head-lifeguard) and fellow lifeguards Doug, and Barb. Also on the beach are Jenny, a young 20-something girl who is reluctantly cleaning the beach for community service after she got caught shoplifting, and Bryan, Barb's boyfriend who proposes to her. Meanwhile, a tremor unleashes a group of Living fossil goblin sharks who begin to devour swimmers along the beach.
