Shark Week Storyline

After the untimely death of his son, the affluent sadist, Tiburon, abducts eight seemingly unrelated perfect strangers. Intent on feeding them to his favourite pet-sharks, Tiburon has devised a series of devilishly cruel and increasingly challenging tests for his prisoners to endure, knowing that there’s no escape from his secluded island compound. Each assault wave involves more voracious shark species than the previous, until the final confrontation with the ultimate beast of the ocean. But, human life is very cheap in Tiburon’s island. Who shall live and who shall die in the bloody Shark Week?

Shark Week Movie Reviews

The Manos-Hands-of-Fate of SyFy movies.

To be fair, I only got to see the last 40 minutes, but that was enough to make this one of the absolute WORST movies I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot of really stinky movies, mostly by Asylum, but all the classic stinkers too like Manos).

Patrick Bergin and Yancy Butler (who seems to have a nervous eye flutter) play a psycho couple who live in a giant mansion but spend most of their time in what appears to be a broom closet decked out with some lap tops and not-so-big video screens. They are forcing some none-too-bright people to make their way through deadly shark encounters which all look like they can be easily be avoided by simply NOT GOING WHERE THE SHARKS ARE.

There’s also some land mines on a beach that are easily seen and can be outrun once they start exploding but are handy for carrying with you in case you have to hang onto a stalagmite while fending off a really hideous CG shark.

Calling the acting wooden is an insult to wood. The music is incessantly wrong for the “action” and the direction and editing are hilarious (lots of scenes of people walking and emoting for no apparent reason).

But it is a hoot to make fun of while you’re watching it. I hope that all involved get better at what they’re doing or find other lines of work.

Saw meets Jaws but with no fun, excitement or sense of terror

For The Asylum, Shark Week is not their worst or quite awful enough to be one of them. That doesn’t stop it though from being a complete failure in every area, and that’s even when you know what to expect. Some of the locations are nice and exotic but others also look as though they were shot in a run-down warehouse or basement. That cheap look is made even worse by the choppy editing and terrible special effects. If you’ve seen the quality of the sharks in other Asylum or SyFy movies that are similar, it’s pretty much the same in Shark Week, the sharks are so cheaply rendered and not only don’t look real but they don’t look natural in their surroundings. They also don’t have any personality either, which severely dilutes any terror or tension, the actors don’t even look all that terrified when really the situation would be scary for anybody. The music is at a very sluggish tempo especially in the scenes containing action, the scoring of the build-ups to the attacks is predictable. The dialogue has always been one of the weakest aspects of an Asylum movie, and there is no change here as this is very cheesy and stilted scripting. And you don’t connect with any of the characters, as with everything else Shark Week doesn’t give time to develop them or you the time to properly root for them. The story just doesn’t seem to have any life, Shark Week is very poorly paced throughout, the action shows the worst of the editing and lifeless choreography and the shark attacks suffer from a complete lack of tension and visual cheapness, if you’re expecting to be afraid of going into seas now you won’t get that vibe. It also seemed rather tame, you’d expect a crossover of Saw and Jaws to have a similar impact to those movies but here it feels like Saw but without the harrowing violence and Jaws without the eerie nail-biting suspense. The acting is very bad too, Patrick Bergin and Yancy Butler are far too over-the-top and don’t make any effort to reign in and give their characters depth or any quality that makes you connect with them. While the acting of victims are wooden with nobody seeming to properly care about whether they lived or died. Overall, dull, cheap and not much fun at all, more avoided than recommended. 1/10 Bethany Cox

Horrible movie … I liked it so much!

No real acting, bad cgi, no story … but so much fun to watch. I’ve never seen a guy running around with a landmine under his arm, there is a first time for everything I guess
