Bad Fish

Based loosely on the movie Jaws, this political spoof was acted out using action figures modified to resemble several famous politicians. Filming took place on several public beaches, a bathtub, and in a shallow bay where all of the equipment had to stand in 30" deep saltwater for hours at a time. The boat, a 4-foot long near-copy of the "Orca" from Jaws renamed "America", sank unintentionally numerous times as its cardboard hull became saturated. Lots of gaff and duct tape were used to keep the ship afloat until its unceremonious demise at the end of the film.
