Sky Sharks

I could write a long detailed review about how bad this movie is, but let me not waste your time. Do not rent, buy, or otherwise watch this trash of a movie. Don't let the shark and zombie effects trick you into watching this mess.

The movie is every bit as terrible as the title and poster suggests. The filmmakers gathered a lot of names, that are actually well known in Germany, but (with very few exceptions) haven't done anything good in the last decades.

The idea of doing a trashy movie like Sharknado and Iron Sky isnt terrible, but this isn't 2010 anymore. We've seen it over and over and these movies had several sequels while Sky Sharks was announced and did nothing for years.

The filmmakers showed off a critic on Facebook and got a lot of support by their own fanbase. What do you expect. The ones that supported the negative review got blocked. So you know who you deal with here.

Sky Shark provides some cheesy and gory fun, but sadly only for the first 30 minutes or so, after that, especially the mid section, strongly loses momentum (explanation over explanation etc.) and I was finally rather bored. With a better script, focused on the action like in the beginning, Sky Sharks could have been a fine cheesy horror experience. Anyway, if Nazi-horror movies like Iron Sky, Frankenstein's Army, Ghosts of War, Blood Vessel, Overlord, Dead Snow and the like, or games like the Castle Wolfenstein franchise, rings a bell, you may give Sky Sharks a try.

There are times in movie-watching life when you just know you shouldn't torture yourself by watching the whole thing...and for me, this was one of them.

I gave it 1 point because you have to, and for the over the top concept and beginning, but after that, it's just beyond pathetic.

Atrocious acting and script don't help, nor does the fact that it's obvious attempts are humour fail miserably. It really does seem like it was all the work of a drooling teenage boy getting his masturbatory fantasies onto the big screen.

The only possible grounds I can think of for sitting though the entirety of this, is you you're trying to punish yourself for some heinous act.

Overall, above avg special effects and a pinch of nudity thrown in. Tom Savini, the master of gore effects, brings his magic to this movie. Can't be all bad.
