About
Taika Waititi's first feature is an offbeat comedy about two misfits trying to find love. Lily (Loren Taylor from movie Existence) is a shy fast-food cashier with a crush on clueless gaming geek Jarrod (Jemaine Clement). When Lily crashes Jarrod's fancy dress party in a shark costume, she impresses the self-styled 'Eagle Lord' with her gaming prowess — but the budding romance is sorely tested by Jarrod's obsession with a childhood nemesis. Empire called the film "a comic delight destined for cult adoration".

A scene from Eagle vs Shark: Lily (Loren Taylor) spies Jarrod approaching the counter while working at fast food joint Meaty Boy. The scene was shot in a KFC branch; but as director Taika Waititi told website Collider, "we changed everything".
