Why settle for 'Jaws' when you can have a 5-headed shark?
We are absolutely fascinated by sharks. Discovery's 35th Shark Week kicked off on July 23rd, hosted by none other than Aquaman Jason Momoa himself. Not just sharks in real life, either. No, we love them on screen, and we like them schlocky. Sharknado, Deep Blue Sea, Sand Sharks, 6-Headed Shark Attack , Sharktopus.
‘Deep Blue Sea’ and ‘Open Water’ Brought Sharks Into the 21st Century Two movies worked together to reawaken those fears: 1999's Deep Blue Sea and 2003's Open Water. Deep Blue Sea was the first major studio release featuring sharks since 1987's Jaws: The Revenge and while it couldn't do any worse, director Renny Harlin instead upped the ante. This wasn't a single shark wreaking havoc on a summer town. Deep Blue Sea had multiple sharks.
When Did Shark Movies Become So Schlocky? This new age of schlock shark film began with 2005’s Hammerhead, also known as Sharkman, an original movie aired on the SyFy channel. It wasn't anything spectacular - scientist tries to find cure for son, inadvertently becomes half-man, half-shark, bitey bitey - and it didn't quite capture the public's attention; but, it was only the beginning.
'Sharknado' Marked the Start of the Massive Schlock Shark Movies Era Then came 2013 and the first film in what would become a juggernaut franchise: Sharknado. It was an absolutely ridiculous premise, played seriously by the cast: a waterspout forms out in the ocean where it picks up sharks. The cyclone then heads towards Los Angeles where it drops sharks throughout the city, allowing them to feast on the population.
