DVD Reviews of Shark Attack 3: Megalodon
DVD Review: Good flick.
Summary: 5 Stars
Enjoyed this movie espessially the unexpacted appreance of the Megalodon. Great low budget job.DVD Review: Horror with a difference! Love this movie! McShane is great!
Summary: 5 Stars
IMO, the actress Jenny McShane, who plays the anthropologist in Shark Attack 3: Megalodon, steals the show! She's not only lovely to look at, she's also a good actress and a woman of action. Her helicopter scenes and boat scenes are totally believable, especially when she's face-to-face with the shark, with the boat falling apart around her. Wow! That was exciting.
I admire her acting ability. The scene where she cries on co-star John Barrowman's shoulder--after the shark almost gets her--might seem like "overkill" to some, but to me it's a realistic human reaction. She's strong in facing down the shark, does her own action scenes, and carries her weight throughout the movie. That's what matters.
The plot was exciting, different and had enough twists and turns to keep me horrified and amused. So what if it's a little campy: a boat seeming to stand still while at full throttle, a shark that makes "bear sounds," and other funky little things like that! That's part of the fun with this type of movie and what makes it so unforgettable to true horror buffs.
I understand that McShane acquired a cult following from these Shark movies and that she and Barrowman landed some fine roles after this one.
As for Barrowman, he's a hunk, all right; a little too "pretty" for my taste, though. I think he should take a page out of Brad Pitt's book and get a bit scruffy for his next roles. Not to knock him in any way; he's a good actor and has a wonderful singing voice...a voice that has won awards in the UK.
He turns me off in this movie when he says something shocking to McShane that wasn't in the script. To her credit she simply walked away for a while, returning to finish the tasteful love scene a short while later.
McShane is one of the Dream Reachers featured in my latest book, co-authored with Chase Von. When editing Von's interview with this actress, I learned that Barrowman made his "infamous" remark as a joke, to break tension among the cast due to long hours on the set. The sad thing is that the editor forgot to remove it before distribution...and the rest is history. Some people love that line, while others, like me, abhor his vulgarity...even as I try to understand his reason.
Nonetheless, I love this movie and have watched it three times already. Wait till you see the size of that "Momma" shark. Those scenes will startle you and keep you coming back for more. That's the beauty of "campy horror."
McShane also played in Shark Attack, opposite Casper Van Dien, but couldn't play in Shark Attack 2 due to being in The Watcher with Keannu Reeves.
I highly recommend all three Shark movies and McShane's latest movie, Furnace (Unrated), another horror movie.

DVD Review: Shark Attack 3: Magalodon
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this as a gift and the person I bought it for really liked it.
DVD Review: Make your friends watch this movie!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
The only hot chick really in it is the skinny dipper girl near the beginning. The lead girl is not much of a peach to look at. I got this movie(if you can call it that) just for the infamous p***y line. I have had most of my friends watch it, and they all agree; it's horribly bad. But that makes it funny and worth talking about. BTW: the worst movie ever?: FrankenHookerDVD Review: shark is fake, lines are weak and there is no acting
Summary: 1 Stars
the dialogue and characters are totally bland and there is NO good line in the movie, they CANNOT ACT TO SAVE THEIR LIVES and are even dressed in wack clothing and this looks like a bad 80s movie.
However, the main problem is the plastic shark that jumps out of the water and everything seems to fall into it's mouth.
Is this a made for TV movie?? must be, because it clearly has NO BUDGET and the actors didnt even devote their time to personify the characters and roles they played.
just one good thing...... this movies about shark attacks and the body count is big......but seeing people get eatin lookz fake and does not compare to jaws or jurrassic park. I konw the biology of sharks and i can tell u that this is FAKE FAKE FAKE and it looks like an inflatable toy that people fall into
don't watch this or u will want ur money back
