Cocaine Shark

I was impressed with some of Mark's DIY creative choices, but that's always been something I love about Polonia movies. They've always got effort and creativity and a rotating group of actors you actually love watching.

I asked myself if Dustin Ferguson watched this and took some notes for his own Cocaine Cougar that I haven't been able to make myself watch and then I remembered he's completely delusional so of course he didn't. He also had his movie on shelves 3 weeks after Cocaine Bear debuted so I doubt he even watched that. The reviews I read for it say it's the exact same formula he always uses just with a terrible cgi cat thrown in at random places.

Anyway, this would probably be a 3.5 on a regular scale, but I'm rating it on the Ferguson Bell Curve so it's a 4.

If you've seen Cocaine Bear and are excited to see what Cocaine Shark has to offer, may be you should hold your horses. Originally titled Kanizame Shakurabu, this movie was renamed to shamelessly cash in on Cocaine Bear, to the point where the cover art for the DVD/blu-ray is literally marketing a movie that doesn't actually exist. To be clear, there's very few sharks in this and even less cocaine.

Cocaine Shark may actually have found life just selling exactly what it is, a very silly B movie featuring mutated creatures, bad acting, and cheap effects. It does at least remain humourous, since the movie is very well aware of how bad it is, and stop motion and cheesy graphics are always a pleasure.

Cocaine Shark feels like a student movie, or something that would have aired on the SyFy Channel. It's not as bad as it seems, but also not good either.

With a low rating, and no expectations. Was expecting this film to be terrible giving its low budget and its parody title. The cover art made it look half way decent but overall there isn't anything really redeeming about this film.

The sharks are animated looking, and it isn't in a funny way. The acting is amateurish where's it's too distracting to take anything serious. The story isn't intriguing and there's no suspense, no mystery and in the end we wonder as to why we watched. It's not a film that's funny in a "so bad it's good" way, it's simply cheesy and forced. Not worth the watch. Far better low budget films out there.

I watched this movie as part of a binge of movies related to animals on cocaine. I was sorely disappointed that this movie was not about sharks that were high on cocaine and terrorizing people. The sound track was not terrible, much better than some others, but not as good as Sharkula's soundtrack.

That said, entertaining to watch and laugh at. The cheesy graphics and acting was enough to keep me entertained for the duration of the movie. This is right alongside the other movies from some of the same actors and producers. Definitely worth a watch through with a big bowl of popcorn and your close sarcastic friends.
