Shark Side of the Moon

Everyone involved in this should never be allowed near so much as a camera phone, let alone actual film equipment. They should consider themselves lucky that they aren't being prosecuted for crimes against film. That's as much effort for a review that this rubbish deserves. To put in anymore effort into a review of this film, would mean I'd of put more effort and professionalism in than what those who made the film did into this piece of garbage. I'm not even joking. In all honesty, I think a bunch of thawed out Neanderthals could of made a better film. In fact, watch this and prepare to have your brain de-evolve.

I got "gems" like Nazis at the Center of the Earth in my not too small collection - and enjoyed the ride a lot (my rating a 5). I'm pretty sure Shark Side of the Moon will find some lost souls too, that will enjoy this cheesy trip to the Moon. For sure, it's not one of the worst movies I laid my eyes on, and it is for sure not the worst movie in the archives of The Asylum. The story is, of course, just a crazy one, but well, not much more unreasonable as most of the stuff Marvel and DC sell now for decades. What prevents me to give this flick a recommendation to the lover of the absurd and grotesque is my impression that neither the level on the horror-o-meter nor on the cheese-o-meter are strong enough - the execution of the premise (shark-mutants on the moon) is rather too tame and lame, and simply does not take full advantage of that crazy tale.

Most scientifically accurate movie about sharks on the moon ever made!! Can't wait for the sequel next week cuz that's how effort they put into the production. Too bad Finn wasn't there to help.

This movie was hilarious but not in the good ways. Only good thing it had goin was it made sharknado look like a goddamn masterpiece...............................................................................................................................................................................

Needless to say that I wasn't harboring any expectations at all of a movie with the name of "Shark Side of the Moon" as possibly being a good movie. Sure, it might be one of those cheesy bad movies that are so bad that they become fun to watch. I was sort of hoping for that.

And of course with "Shark Side of the Moon" being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to watch what writers Ryan Ebert and Anna Rasmussen had mustered with the script.

Seeing those two dreaded words on the screen at the start of the movie immediately made me twitch. What words you might ask? Well, you know, "The Asylum". Yup, this was another impressive movie from The Asylum. And let me just say that this movie was a sinker and a stinker. It was pretty terrible even for the standards of The Asylum.

The storyline in "Shark Side of the Moon" was pretty corny, sure. Talk about tacky sci-fi.

The acting performances in the movie were questionable at best, and it often felt like the actors and actresses themselves were struggling with taking things seriously.

"Shark Side of the Moon" is just full of so many errors, such as absolutely no concept of how gravity works on the moon, how having skin exposed to the vacuum of space works, and the list goes on and on. It was so bad that I ended up laughing a lot throughout the course of the movie, given all the mistakes and flaws that permeated the movie.

The special effects in "Shark Side of the Moon" were 'special' alright. Even for a movie from The Asylum, then the CGI effects in this movie were atrocious. The animation was wooden, rigid, stilted and just generally looked like something from an early 1990s PC game. Sure, I will say that the scenes with the spaceship flying through space looked good, and the textures of the sharks looked good. But everything else was just rubbish.

Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time, money or effort on "Shark Side of the Moon" from directors Glenn Campbell and Tammy Klein. The movie simply is not worth the effort.

My rating of "Shark Side of the Moon" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.
