JAWS 5 (CRUEL JAWS)

Bruno Mattei is known to film nerds as a maestro of schlock. His movies are exploitative, violent and poorly acted... Over the years fans have celebrated his poorly made b-movies to the point of considering them high art. In 1995 he made a movie that was marketed to the world as Jaws 5. Of course it is NOT a sequel to any of the Jaws movies and with the threat of legal action the title was changed to Cruel Jaws. It's basically a rehash the first Jaws movie.,, but with titties, amateur actors and lots of gore. There's even a Hulk Hogan wannabe!!! A tiger shark is on the loose, ripping swimmers apart and the local sherif teams up with a shark expert to hunt and kill it (sound familiar?). This movie is HILARIOUS. My step son is obsessed with the Jaws movies and as a joke I thought I would buy this one for him. Of course I had to watch it first to make sure it was suitable... my verdict is that the acting in this is not suitable for ANYONE! LOL... well, perhaps it's perfect for a drunk movie night with friends. I would love to see the script because these actors deliver their lines like there's an exclamation mark at the end of every one. Cruel Jaws; file it in the "WTF?" basket!
