Years after witnessing his parents deaths by a Megalodon, Spencer Northcut is called in to uncover what caused the destruction of an undersea research vessel. Unbeknown to him however and as he is about to discover, the culprit was, yes you've guessed it

OK so this is obviously rather daft stuff but if you approach it in a relaxed frame of mind it is an entirely harmless, even mildly enjoyable way to spend an hour and a half.
Acting and special effects range from OK to pretty damn poor with some rather cringe inducing melodramatics on the acting front and a few decidedly ropey digital fx in places. Special mention must also go to the rather pathetic, obviously cost cutting 'underwater' footage involving divers .the scenes are simply filmed in a normal studio with little particles of polystyrene blown around the set to represent bubbles etc!!!
Still, credit where credits due, the ending in this is admittedly a downbeat surprise and I must admit, I'm a real glutton for shark movies so I'm not going to be overly critical of the shortcomings in this.
By no means a classic, and whilst admittedly a million miles away from the big daddy of all shark films, Jaws, if it's a quick ichthyological predator fix you're after, this may well make you smile.
