Shark. El demonio del mar

Put those two movies together, and you got Shark Attack 2. Although I did not see the first Shark Attack movie, I seriously doubt I will. Even though the actors seem to do pretty well. The story falls flat on itself, because if you saw Jaws and Deep Blue Sea, well you know what I'm talking about. It's right up there with Jaws:The Revenge. It might has been called Jaws:The Next Generation.

I watched this film in disbelief that anyone would choose Jaws 3 and remake it!......Of course they rip off other shark movies along the way but the "highlight" was when our hero is on the beach watching people surfing and swimming and the film-makers actually have the nerve to copy the reverse dolly shot as used in jaws when Brodie sees the shark attack. Spielberg should sue them! Having said that the film is not that bad......The two main leads are OK and could go on to do better movies. All the Hollywood films Creature Features are at least good for a laugh in a cheap and cheerful way. But Jaws this aint!

In this film, there is a scene where two kids are playing with a radio-controlled boat. I was one of those kids (the older one) and as someone who was actually in the film, take this from me: this film is BAD. There are 2 reasons i've watched this movie more than once: the fact that on the beach scenes, I can spot many people I know messing about in the background, and the fact that it is hilarious to watch as a whole.

The continuity errors, the growling sharks, the bad acting and the cheesy, dubbed "american" accents (since when did South Africans have American accents??!!! Even i was dubbed over!) make it a laugh-a-minute B-Movie not to be taken seriously. So, as much as it pains me, i would have to recommend this movie to all B-Movie fanatics and anyone wanting a laugh.

And just for interests sake, the building used for the "WATER WORLD" aquarium was recently torn down as it had become derelict and was a home for crack-heads. ;)!

There is a part where the woman and the "marine boy" are looking for the shark on the boat and it shows the shark swimming away, it was a dolphin not a shark. Lmao this movie is so cheesy!!

Mutated Great White sharks are gobbling up sea divers and surfers off the coast of South Africa, more than a nod to Jaws, it even manages to squeeze in some of the latter's famous music. It's many years since I watched Shark Attack (1999) and I remember nothing about it, going by this sequel that's probably no bad thing. This movie is set in Cape Town yet there's barely a genuine local accent to be heard, the place appears to be populated mainly by Americans, even the Mayor. We get a famous shark hunter from Australia but the actor's English accent keeps slipping out. For some reason sharks roar, sadly this was to become normal for countless other bad shark movies to come. A lot of stock footage is used, probably the best thing here, but some of the shark effects are laughably poor. However the attacks are quite vicious, the movie doesn't lack guts! Plenty of nice Cape Town scenery but the film drags in places, in particular during the predictable love story scenes. Bad shark movie but trust me there are far worse out there.
