Disclaimer: The version on Tubi says it was made in 2022.
A giant sea serpent - much like the Loch Ness Monster - called Willatuk has been in the waters of Seattle for a long time. Well, at least as far back as 2012, when director O. W. Tuthill made Seattle's Loch Ness: The Lake Washington Sea Monster.
Now, he's showing how the residents of Seattle deal with the monster, like Chief Clamintile of the Wonkatilla Tribe, whose people worship it as the God of Ocean, or the hunter (Dan Schwert) who has been brought up by his father to kill the beast.
It's all narrated by Graham Greene and the director/writer is better known for his music work, so that sounds good. I'm kind of astounded by this because a movie that has a horrific monster poster ends up being about interfamily strife and how we deal with the world. Of course, some of the actors are better than others, but this is an oddball movie that just worked for me, as it has a vision and didn't get notes from anyone. It's very much it's own movie.
