Shark Season

This was very silly LMN movie - I felt sorry for the shark!!

Please note:

1. Michael Madsen needed a hair color touch up - his grey roots are clearly visible.

2. Michael madsen needed a cough lozenge - he sounded very horse.

3. Just a silly plot - sinking island?

4. This reminded me of JAWS in the 1970's (I saw it then) but that scared me - this one made me laugh.

Have many drinks before viewing - REQUIRED!!!

This is another really poor & extremely cheap killer shark Thriller about stranded youngsters being stalked by a great white & the real used footage of the shark looks great because it's Real but the c.g.i side of things is AWFUL!!!

The blonde chick also has some horrific Snot near the end....watch it gross

But the most disturbing thing about this cheap & tacky flick is that former "Reservoir Dogs" star Michael Madsen is in this playing one of the girls dad & he looks horrendous, he looks half dead & scarily frail & very old looking!!! It's a shame how he's turned out in his later years & he's now a horrendous actor!!!!

Film is crap.

Everything about this movie is horrible. The acting is absolutely awful. The camera angles are confusing and awkward. The dialogue and emotion/lack of emotion is terrible. I cannot stress enough how bad this movie is... but I had to finish watching because it was hilariously stupid.

Wow just wow - how can the acting be so bad from everyone concerned in this? Surely there are some good actors in Hollywood who would act for peanuts or nothing just to get their names known? I surmise the actors; and I use the term loosely in this, have either given the producer a few... ahem... casting couch favours or are family members!

Michael Madsen - well what can we say but that syrup was just a laugh-a-minute especially when he is on the phone it literally starts moving back exposing his real grey hair underneath I couldn't stop laughing and sorry Mike but when you are past your best it is time to give it up and you are 10 years past your best but he was obviously thrown into this calamity just to add a name to the cast list! He actually looks like my gramps with a dodgy black syrup, some dreadfully bad blusher on his cheeks and the turkey neck of doom. Watch the end sequence closely - he is so frail he cannot put his sunglasses on with his hands shaking or was he inebriated? Either way what a poor old sod, i actually started to feel sorry for the old fella, how very, very embarrassing to go out in your career this way - better to grow old gracefully!

As for the movie? Well it is Asylum and a tv movie so you should really not expect much and try and review it in that context but even so the shark effects were pretty basic. The problem is the acting, it really takes away a lot from the movie and makes it hard to watch and just adds another Shark Turkey movie to the seemingly endless list!

This ranks alongside Snow Shark Ancient Snow Beast and House Sharks as the worst shark movies ever made.

I love shark films. Even the cheesy low budget ones. But this was garbage.

Michael Madsen literally phones his performance in. And in the most wooden way possible.

He has phone conversations with some random guy in a boat who has no relevance to the movie whatsoever. And most of the time you see this guy from his back. It was obvious that this guy was not an actor. The conversations he has with Michael Madsen are hilarious. Each conversation has them repeatedly say the same things over and over but with some dialogue changes. It is extremely bizzare.

Now to the blonde lead of the movie. You will see her space out of lot with some really strange facial expressions. You don't know if she is trying to look shocked, struggling to remember her lines or holding in a fart.

Not too mention the out of place 10 minute conversation she has with the other girl about love and drama while stuck on a rock escaping the shark. There are more important issues for them to be concerned about then that crap in their situation.

The shark is the typical z grade quality CGI. In some cases each time you see the shark you hear some weird wooshing/growling sound. And ironically, the shark is the best actor in the film.

The only good thing about this movie is that it's funny. And that was not the intention of this film.

Make sure to listen to Michael Madsens horrible phone message to his characters daughter 'This is me....calling you..... something along the lines like that. Awful

UPDATE - Changing the movie title to DEEP BLUE NIGHTMARE on Lifetime is not going to change how bad this movie is. I don't know why they bothered changing the name
