- An American scientist creates a half-pterosaur and half-barracuda creature named the pteracuda which inevitably escapes, leaving it up to the sharktopus to stop it.
- SHARKTOPUS VS. PTERACUDA finds an American scientist up to no good (as usual) by creating the half-pterosaur and half-barracuda hybrid monster named the pteracuda. When the creature inevitably escapes and goes berserk, it is up to the sharktopus to stop it. But can one hybrid monster kill another hybrid monster, and even if it does, what is going to stop it from going berserk like the other one?—Fangoria
- Ignoring his team's warnings, Symodyne's Dr. Rico Symes releases a hideous half-barracuda and half-pterosaur hybrid named the pteracuda, only to fall victim to military sabotage. As the uncontrollable hybrid runs amok, Symes and the head of security, Hamilton, decide to use a deadly enemy from the recent past to stop the pteracuda; however, in the previous film, Sharktopus (2010), one hybrid monstrosity was enough to wreak havoc on the ocean. Now there are two of them, and marine biologist Lorena Christmas needs to find a way to destroy them both. Can she kill two birds with one stone?—Nick Riganas
- Sometime after the events of the first film, Lorena Christmas discovers an egg sac containing a baby sharktopus in the ocean. Meanwhile, Dr. Rico Symes, CEO of Symodyne, the company that originally created sharktopus releases a barracuda-pterodactyl hybrid creature known as pteracuda above the desert, intended for military use, against the advice of head of security Hamilton. The pteracuda, controlled with a computer chip in its brain, is secretly hacked by one of the scientists at Symodyne, Vladimir Futon to terrorize populated areas. The pteracuda is directed towards the Symodyne lab, and kills a worker before Hamilton scares it off. Futon flees the scene, and continues to control the pteracuda from his car.
Hamilton, and his team of military commandos engage in battle with the pteracuda in a helicopter, and Symes discovers that pteracuda's computer chip has been hacked, reporting this information to Hamilton. The pteracuda then causes the helicopter to crash in the ocean, killing everybody except Hamilton. Futon then loses the signal after crashing his car, leaving pteracuda on his own command. Meanwhile, Lorena, is working at a water park/aquarium owned by her uncle, greedy business mogul Munoz, and is currently training the now fully grown sharktopus. After two customers threaten to give Munoz a one star review, he shows them the sharktopus, only for the couple to almost get killed by the creature. The sharktopus makes news headlines as Symes realizes that the original sharktopus had babies.
Symes, and Hamilton force Munoz to give sharktopus to them so they can use it to kill pteracuda, much to Lorena's anger. Symes, and Hamilton proceed to release sharktopus into the ocean so it can fight pteracuda. Sharktopus, and pteracuda kill a few people at diving at a shipwreck before they begin to fight. Meanwhile, Munoz locks Lorena in a closet to keep her quiet, although she manages to break out, and calls her lifeguard boyfriend Rick Hoffman, telling him to evacuate the beach. However, the sharktopus, and pteracuda arrive, and kill a few people, including Conan O'Brien. In the meantime, Symes, and Hamilton discover that Futon hacked into pteracuda's system. At a nearby hotel, Futon regains control of pteracuda. The pteracuda crashes a plane, and kills everybody on board, including the couple that Smith showed the sharktopus to earlier.
Having been paid a ton of money by Symes, and Hamilton to keep quiet about sharktopus, Munoz closes the park for good. The sharktopus, and pteracuda kill several more people at the beach before continuing their fight. Symes, and Hamilton kidnap Lorena to force her to help them kill the creatures. Lorena realizes that she read one of Symes' papers back in college. Lorena then escapes Symes, and Hamilton after seeing Rick pull in an injured woman on the beach. Pteracuda attacks more people on the beach, and Rick goes on a jet-ski to warn people, only to be decapitated by pteracuda. Symes, and Hamilton kidnap Lorena again, and the three trace sharktopus' location to a series of nearby canals that are near the aquarium.
Symes discovers that Futon is attempting to cause a meltdown at a nearby nuclear power plant using pteracuda. He, Lorena, and Hamilton then attempt to drive to the hotel to stop Futon. At the aquarium, sharktopus arrives, and kills several people, including Munoz. Lorena, Symes, and Hamilton arrive at the hotel, and take Futon hostage, and find out he's working for a foreign terrorist group. It is revealed on a news report that only Symes is wanted by the government for questioning. Futon takes control of Symes' gun, and leaves with his computer, although he is shot by Hamilton in his escape, and the group leaves him to be eaten by pteracuda while Symes stops the pteracuda's coded course to the power plant.
When the group attempts to drive away, they are attacked by pteracuda, and Symes forces Lorena, and Hamilton out of the car with the computer, leaving them for dead. Lorena, and Hamilton manage to evade pteracuda, as it, and the sharktopus begin to fight again. Hamilton then drives off in another car with the computer, intending to kill the creatures himself, and Lorena returns home. The next day, Hamilton confronts Symes, holding him at gunpoint, and forcing him onto a rowboat with the computer. Symes is ripped in half by sharktopus, and pteracuda while Hamilton returns to help Lorena.
Lorena realizes that the pteracuda must eat constantly in order to survive, and she, and Hamilton create a plan to kill both creatures. Using a disco ball to lure in pteracuda, sharktopus also arrives subsequently, and the two creatures begin to fight once more. Hamilton shoots the pteracuda with a harpoon that breaches its computer chip, causing it to overload, and explode, killing both creatures. As Lorena, and Hamilton leave, the sharktopus grabs onto their boat, and lunges at the camera, leaving their fates unknown.
