Jaws of the Shark (2012)
Jaws of the Shark (2012)
Mad scientists create a man-shark that is unleashed and begins a murderous journey as law enforcement tries to figure out how to stop this menace. The man-shark finds a chainsaw as a motley group of shark hunters assemble to face off and see who is the better shark hunter. Jaws of the Shark is a 2012 horror-comedy directed by Gustav Ljungdahl and featuring an unknown cast playing multiple roles. Jaws of the Shark is a shark comedy with a budget so low it was probably raised with a bake sale. The man shark costume is really silly-looking and isn't meant to look anything other than cheap. The cast does not feature anyone of note, but that may be the whole point of this very silly movie. There is one major scene that will likely get a mild chuckle, but honestly, it is the only real notable scene. Jaws of the Shark is exactly what you would expect from a director like Mark Polonia, and strangely, it isn't. The gore effects are over-the-top and fun to watch, despite the low-budget look. The film is a Swedish production, and the cast speaks English, so the audience doesn't have to waste time with subtitles. If you look at this movie as a camp comedy, you can sit back and laugh at how silly it is, or at least appreciate the references to more popular horror movies.

The Requin (2022)
The Requin (2022)
After a heartbreaking life event, a young couple vacationing in a Vietnamese coastal resort face difficult challenges when a typhoon pulls their villa out into the open ocean, leaving them stranded with no supplies and sharks in the water. The Requin is a 2022 shark movie directed by Le-Van Kiet and starring Alicia Silverstone. The Requin is easily one of the most absurd shark movies released in recent years that wasn't a purposeful parody. The film features a premise that is dumb and unlikely to happen, given that a storm strong enough to sweep them into the open sea would likely have drowned them. Alicia Silverstone is a known commodity in this film, and given her long absence from major films, it's likely this was done to put a famous name on it. The movie pretty much follows a derivative plot about people stranded in the middle of the ocean, so there is little to see besides the couple fighting off sharks and trying to call for help by doing the dumbest thing you can imagine. The Vietnamese resort was quite beautiful, so hopefully the cast and crew enjoyed a nice trip.

The Shark Hunter (1979)
A crusty man who hunts sharks and lives a simple life on the beach seeks to recover a fortune lost in a plane crash. Taking on a partner who is a skilled diver, the two work to recover the treasure, but his past catches up to him as outside parties seek to take the fortune he has patiently waited to recover. The Shark Hunter is a 1979 Italian film directed by Enzo Castellari and starring Franco Nero, who is best known for portraying Django in several Italian westerns. While the movie looks like another Jaws copycat, the film is more similar to Peter Benchley's The Deep. The film does feature a sea full of sharks, but they are more for background scenery, as the plot is more focused on the buried treasure. Franco Nero is a tough but likable protagonist who harbors regret alongside his love for his community. The Shark Hunter was released in a three-part Blu-ray collection from Severin, and the print looks spectacular.
