Steven Kan's Sharks of the Corn

I'm a big Tim Ritter from back in the day. This movie is about a half hour long, has far too many characters, and lots of pacing issues. I liked the cheesy stuff and silly vibe but it is overwhelmingly boring.

Generally speak, I like Shark movies. It's really a stretch to call this a shark movie.

Everything about this was bad. Bad acting, bad cinematography, bad dialog, bad... no, not just bad but HORRIBLE "special effects".

I've had bouts of explosive diarrhea that were more enjoyable than this movie.

To be fair, I only got about 10 minutes in and pulled the plug. Maybe it's like the Wizard of Oz where the first part of the film is black and white and then transforms into a mind-blowing full-color experience only in this case, the movie starts horribly bad and then pivots unexpectedly into a cinematic masterpiece.

I mean, I highly doubt it, but it's always possible. I'll have to spin it up again and forward to the end.

This is not one of those movies that some scientist says that there are land sharks and no one believes until half the town is eaten; then you see the shark. In this movie you see the little cutie upfront. So, they wrote the script backwards.

I have cats that look more vicious. That is why I to not let them watch this sort of thing.

Some randy girl says "You can bite me. No extra charge." And there is some sort of Shark-a-do-do cult. That is still teething.

Speaking about girls, all the females in this movie look like they have been plumping up as shark-chow. Not one scrawny female among them.

Oh, no there is even an evil cabal of shark people. Or possibly alien shark people. Twists and turns abound without waiting for the end.

We may be confronted by a whole menagerie; I will not go into details as it is the fun of surprise. Luckily, we do not have to listen to rap music in the background. Periodically the cutie sharks barf up red corn sweetener.

I cannot believe Benchley (Casey Miracle) is a scoundrel. Will he come unhinged. As everybody must get stoned. He is also known as the varmint.

Filming location The Roundabout in Clark County, Kentucky U. S. A. Too bad as they have Inka giant corn in Salinas Valley, California.

The only thing that might be missing is Richard Dutoit Carlson. Then again?

This could be based on a real incident. As we know that there was corn in Mexico:

WORLD A boulder blocking a Mexican cave was moved. Hidden inside were human skeletons and the remains of sharks and blood-sucking bats.

Right, well with a movie titled "Sharks of the Corn", of course you are bound to believe that you are in for either a spoof or a comedy. One would think so. But no, this 2021 movie from writer and director is seriously labeled as a horror movie. Yeah, exactly, a horror movie.

And, well, I guess it was a horror movie in some way, because this movie was bad. So horribly, horrible bad. And yet, I sat through it, hoping that it would eventually become so cheesy and bad that it would become one of those movies so bad that they are enjoyable and hilarious to watch. That just never happened with "Sharks of the Corn".

The storyline in "Sharks of the Corn" was just downright corny, pardon the pun, so at least the writer and director got that right. But it wasn't by any means an enjoyable storyline. And the whole thing about sharks and Stonehenge being interwoven? But why?

The acting in this 2021 horror movie was dubious at best. Of course it was, just take a look at the special effects, the storyline, the dialogue and the sharks, and you get the idea.

There there were the special effects. Boy, were they special alright. The effects were lowkey and practical in origin. And points scored for making something like this. But the effects in "Sharks of the Corn"? Come on. It was atrocious. It was so blatantly obvious just a hand shark puppet held in front of the camera. And the blood effects? Well, let's not even go there.

"Sharks of the Corn" is without a doubt one of the worst movies that I have suffered through. Don't get suckered in by the movie's cover, the title or the catch phrase "Steven Kang's Sharks of the Corn". I did, and I regret it awfully.

My rating of "Sharks of the Corn" lands on a one out of ten stars.

What can I say about shark of the corn, it just isn't good, and is massively underwhelming for it's concept.

We get a drunk couple, one running around with her upper half on show. A shark that not only looks unauthentic but can also somehow not only survive out of water, but swim around in a corn field too.

We get sloppy script writing, poor dialogue, weaker than poor acting to go with that dialogue, and some underwhelming camera angles to go with the poor acting, that went with the poor dialogue. Who had thought it.

I just do not get it, I mean I wanted too, I did, but the whole thing is not playable so I don't. I have to give it one, mainly because the good people do give us a zero to select. I understand that, a zero would be mean, so fair play to those at IMDB for not having it an option.

Just not good to watch.
