Spring Break Shark Attack

a review by The Movie Mob

All teen romance and hardly any sharks make for a pretty lame shark movie.

Spring Break Shark Attack was a TV movie released on CBS in 2005, which means all the normal shark violence had to be cut to play on a major broadcast channel. The result is a teen beach party love triangle for 90% of the run time and a sprinkling of people getting sucked beneath the water by sharks for the final 10%. The incredibly low budget meant hardly any creature effects, so people would just scream and disappear beneath the water with fake blood following shortly after some of the time. Other times, the sharks were sneaky, so apparently no blood. We all know that shark movies are cheesy and bad. And as far as that standard goes, Spring Break Shark Attack was pretty decent but hardly had any sharks. Sharks are kind of the point of a shark attack movie.
