Ghost Shark Movie Review

Ghost Shark 
Movie Review

Spoiler Alert: As can be expected, Ghost Shark was a silly movie. Which is fine, except when the filmmakers defy the rules of the world they created. The shark’s head gets blown off with a hand grenade, but then the head’s intact on its corpse. Plus, after getting killed with a grenade exploding inside its mouth, the shark swims away to a haunted cave. 


Made no sense. Not that the concept of a ghost shark made sense, but still, you can’t violate the rules and logic of the world you create, no matter how crazy those rules and that logic may be. 


The idea of a shark coming out of any body of water is cool. But if the shark’s a ghost and can pass through any objects, how is it able to chomp on people? (Or maybe I just prefer my screenplay Sharks on a Plane so much more. Crazy as mine is, at least it makes some semblance of sense and features humor, suspense, romance, character arcs, and a whole lot of fun! Everything you want in a movie with only half the calories! Or something like that. If you are, or if you know, a movie mogul, hook me up!) 


Cute at the end of Ghost Shark that they ask what day it is; and it’s Tuesday like the ending of Jaws. Nice homage, except that the surviving characters swim out to sea instead of back to land like in Jaws. I kept expecting a real (non-ghost) shark to attack. Who goes swimming after seeing so many of his/her friends and acquaintances killed by a shark, even if it was a ghost shark?

What did one shark say to the other 
while eating a clownfish?
... This tastes funny.

Dean Burkey:
I don’t want to insult the man, 
so let me just say that he’s a swell guy and all that, 

but he’s not the sharpest shark at the feeding frenzy.

 Ray Divine: 

Stealing from a thief 
is like paddling with your hands 
in shark-infested waters.

 Dean Burkey:

No one wants to die a virgin. 
Especially if you’re a virgin being fed to sharks.

Why The Freakish Fascination with Shark Movies?




Photo Source: Batman & http://www.eonline.com/news/533540/meet-joan-of-shark-quite-possibly-the-biggest-great-white-shark-ever-discovered

Maybe, at some point in our lives, we suffered some insanely bizarre trauma involving a rogue minnow or a ghoulish guppy gone wild. 
Possibly a wacky, psycho babysitter beat us with undercooked herring. Or forced us to eat pizzas with anchovies against our will. 
And I’m sure we’ve all had a highly unfortunate fish taco incident. Or a baby bass burrito that swam against the currents. If you know what I mean. 
Or we ate a fish sandwich that was too hot and burnt our tiny lips when we were far too young to sue. 

Either way, no matter what kind of crazy-carp-encounter or silly-salmon-scenario gone awry that we may have faced, the biggest appeal of shark movies has to be our ability to face our aquatic fears without having to get wet. 

 And, of course, without having to feed the marine life. With our hearts and souls. And other body parts. 

By being frightened by sharks in movies, we can rationalize that yeah, fish can be scary. 

 Something about the sharks being so disproportionate to reality helps us laugh at our fears, which, in the case of monster sharks, are completely justified.

Somehow the hyperbolic exaggeration and the overly theatrical, beyond-the-realm-of-reality presentation proves to be cathartic and helps ease our concerns and calm our nerves. 

 Until the next time we have to go to the beach. 

 Or if we’re soaking in the tub; and some pranking bully turns off the lights and turns on the soundtrack from JAWS.

 Maybe shark movies 
make us feel better about ourselves, 
because the victims, 
um, I mean, the people in them, 
a.k.a. shark food, 
act so silly, 
that we feel better about ourselves.

 Or we just like hot girls; 
and any movie at the beach, 
or in the ocean, 
should surely feature some scantily-clad hotties.
And of course, 
I mean that in the most respectful of ways.
