Demon of Paradise is a 1987 horror film shot in the Philippines and directed by Cirio H. Santiago. The film, along with many monster movies of the 1970s and 1980s is very similar to Jaws.
The hunters become the prey when illegal dynamite fishing prematurely ends the hibernation of a mythological carnivorous lizard-man. The owner of the local resort, whose patrons have become the appetizers on this predator's menu, and a herpetologist join forces with the sheriff to save the tourists from succumbing to the feasting of the beast.
The film was released on VHS by Warner Home Video in the 1990s.
The film was released on DVD and Bluray by Shout Factory in 2011 as a double feature alongside the similar Up From the Depths.
