Kraken is a 2025 monster horror movie about a marine biologist uncovering deadly secrets in Norway’s deepest fjord, where a massive, multi-tentacled creature lurks, ready to crush its prey.
Synopsis: Marine biologist Johanne arrives in the quiet fjordside community of Vangsnes to study a fish farm, but her research takes a dark turn when eerie disturbances ripple through the waters. When two local teenagers are found brutally killed, all signs point to the fjord’s depths – an abyss untouched by time, where something ancient stirs. Beneath the surface, a monstrous being the size of a mountain lies in wait, its countless, writhing arms stretching through the darkness, ready to crush and consume anything that dares to enter its domain. As Johanne delves deeper into the mystery, she must confront a terrifying possibility: has she awakened an ancient predator, or was it never truly asleep? In the still waters of the fjord, the past is never dead – it only hungers in silence, waiting for the next unwitting soul to stray too close.
