Movies like Emotional Support Shark (2026)

Virgil is down on his luck. Working as a janitor at a local aquarium, the sharks in the exhibit are his only friends. It’s certainly not his boss, the flirty secretary, the violent co-worker, or his wise-guy supervisor. But when people around Virgil start turning up dead—killed by someone wielding a shark-handled blade—it becomes clear that something dark and dangerous is circling closer. He’s emotional. He needs support. And he’s surrounded by sharks.
