This is what happens when you give Corman CGI ! He could make these things forever. How many hours have been wasted watchingbhis films ?
If you're after cheesy low budget sci-fi, then this should get you through the afternoon. It's not one of the best cheesy C-Grade sci-fi films you'll find out there, but it's worth a look if you want to kill time waiting for the next low budget TV creature feature, "Sharktopus vs Whalewolf".
It's better than "Transformers: Age of Extinction", but worse than the original "Sharktopus".
The highlights of this film were the badly acted tourists, but in saying that, some of the acting wasn't too bad, and there were quite a few intelligent lines for an unintelligible movie. Some of the characters were kind of funny, for eg. "You'll have to contact my lawyer, but he's in jail right now." The effects are good for a laugh. I like to watch these types of films and imagine the big "what if's?", in other words, what if this were a sixty million dollar budgeted film, how cool would sharktopus look. It's kind of a bland blank canvas you can paint your own imagination on.
I give it a three out of ten for overall quality but if this were the "B-Grade Internet Movie Database" it would get a five.
Sharktopussy versus Pteracuda-pina-collada.

You thought that the sky would save you from the Sharktopus? Apart from the fact that one of its tentacles would probably just grab anything out of the sky no matter how high it is, you have a new flying threat in this sequel, the Pteracuda. And yes it is exactly what the name suggests.
This new creature might not be as absurd and fun as the Sharktopus itself but it surely manages to provide some funny scenes for the movie and the fights between these two creatures were "great". The first Sharktopus movie was an absolutely terrible piece of cinema that was still able to absolutely entertain with lots of beer and a couple of friends. It was a bad movie and everyone involved knew it and that was its strength because they absolutely went for the full trash factor and absurdity. This sequel is similarly bad but it's less iconic in my opinion. Sure the acting is atrocious and the effects are terrible but I still had some fun with this and if you ever wanted to see some people playing volleyball with Conan O'Brien's head then this movie will serve. [3,9/10]

While this movie is full of plot holes and dialogue mistakes, I have seen worse shark movies. But if you only see one Sharktopus movie, watch Whalewolf not this one.

Absolutely horrible. A TOTAL HORRENDOUS MESS. This might cause unexpected suicides. Do not watch this.
