With an inexhaustible army of highly trained sharks at his command, the warlord manages to capture Willow, the daughter of a mysterious “shark caller”, only to inspire a rebellion.

Empire of the Sharks Movie Reviews

Waterworld with sharks

EMPIRE OF THE SHARKS is listed as a comedy but you wouldn’t find any humour here, at least of the intentional variety. Instead this is a typical Asylum movie, shoddily made and shot on the cheap, although less stupid than something like s a SHARKNADO sequel. The whole idea for the film is a psychic ability to control sharks and have them sail out of the water to attack your enemies, but it’s not really developed much beyond this point. More interesting is the post-apocalyptic world which riffs on WATERWORLD and is fairly well portrayed on a tight budget. A shame there’s a lack of interesting characters to prevent viewer involvement in the story.

Mad sharks

John Savage. He was in Godfather III, Do The Right Thing, The Deer Hunter.

In Empire of the Sharks he plays a warlord in a post apocalyptic water based society who has a mechanism to control man eating sharks.

Along with his cohorts they terrorise other colonies for tributes. However they come across a young woman who also has the ability to control sharks without needing any fancy gloves.

This Asylum production made for SyFy is dismal. It is Waterworld meets Jaws without any campy fun.

The special effects are of a typical low standard. The film is so dull, its running length is stretched because there is not enough story. The acting by most of the cast is bland.

Better than jaws

The cinematography, acting, and prestige direction is Oscar worthy. The screenplay flows from scene to scene effortlessly and the story moves along in a brisk and original creative way. Another gem from the syfy channel. 1/10
