Here's a promo trailer for 1987's Jaws The Revenge, the only "Jaws" film I didn't like: |

Hmm...I believe I've seen this many years ago...this is the one where the shark was stabbed with the broken boat mast thing at the end? Sorry if that spoiler killed it for anyone, but if it was that film, I remember it being my least favorite. |

Correct. The shark also was given the ability to "roar" in this scene(and I think a few others). My main problem with Jaws The Revenge(1987), which I saw here in Atlanta in a theater when it was first released, is the plot: utilizing the "revenge" motif to explain a shark's attacks on the remaining members of the Brody family just doesn't cut it with me and, I'm thinking, probably not with the vast majority of others who have seen this movie.

Yeah, the whole "revenge" thing was a pretty lame premise to base it on. Though if animals were that intelligent, the human race would be at war with cattle on a daily basis for all the hamburger we eat.

A 30th anniversary DVD of Jaws(1975) is scheduled for release on May 19, 2009. No specs for this release have been posted but I doubt it will have any extras not already available on previously released DVDs of this film. Source: http://www.horror-movies.ca/horror_15198.html |
