Shakma
서렌슨 교수(Sorenson: 로디 맥도웰 분)는 의과대학에서 원장류의 포악성에 대해 연구하며 학생들을 가르치는 교수이다. 그러던 어느날 샤크마라는 원장류에게 종전과 같은 약물실험을 허으나 실패하여 샤크마는 죽고만다. 한편 교수와 학생들은 사고력과 판단력의 증진을 위해 학과 후에 패쇄된 학교 강의실과 실험실에서 컴퓨터로 게임을 해 왔으며 오늘도 변함없이 게임을 계획한다. 그러나 인간들의 무분별한 생체실험에 대한 샤크마의 분노는 죽음을 초월하고 약물과다 투여로 죽었으리라 생각하고 버려두었던 샤크마는 복수의 화신으로 부활하여 몸에 투여된 약물로 인해 날로 포악해져 실험중인 학생들과 교수들을 차례로 죽이게 되는데.

흥미로운 사실
Shakma is a 1990 American natural horror film directed by Tom Logan and Hugh Parks. It stars Christopher Atkins, Amanda Wyss, Ari Meyers and Roddy McDowall battling a baboon that has been driven insane by an experimental drug. Despite all the negative reviews, the film has achieved a small cult audience.
Production
The monkey playing Shakma is called Typhoon and was handled by Gerry Therrien of Action Animals. Although the title might be read to indicate it is a chacma baboon, Typhoon was actually a hamadryas baboon. Actress Amanda Wyss was terrified of the animal.
In an interview, actor Christopher Atkins said that production was "Intensive" and that actors had to be careful when making eye-contact with the baboon as it could become aggressive. Atkins also claimed that women who were on their period were not allowed to go near the baboon, as it would "go crazy" if they did.
During production, as many scenes as possible were filmed without the actors interacting with the baboon due to safety concerns. Instead an animatronic or puppet baboon was used in some shots including one where a puppet of Typhoon was thrown through a glass window.
Filming took place at Universal Studios Florida. Atkins became involved in the film because he was friends with Jim Parks, a producer at the newly opened studio. Filming had to stop around 3 o'clock on most days due to thunderstorms near the studio.
