    This is brilliant! The best worst film ever made, watch the boring beginning just for the ridicules but fantastic ending where the shark eats everything no matter what size it is! John Barrowman is also the (unlikely) hero who camps it up no end. The best thing is they kept all o...( read more)f his ad-lib stuff so quite unexpectedly, half way through a romantic conversation you get, 'I?m a little wired... what do you say I take you home and eat your pussy?" Brilliant!

    "How about I take you home and eat your pussy?" What a perfectly respectable and normal chat up line. Works an' all. Yes this piece of crap becomes better the more you drink. A repetitive cgi shark with no texture, obvious that people are going down slides when going in the shark...( read more)s mouth and of course shots repeated over and over. Like Shark Attack 1 and 2 at the same time. So twice as bad but twice as funny.

    When a giant shark tooth is found on the coast of Mexico, man's biggest fear comes to life. A Megalodon shark is prowling water for the taste of human flesh & blood.
    Shark Attack 3 is overall a bad movie. There are two kinds of bad movies. One that is fun to watch and one that is...( read more) just plain bad. This falls in the category of bad. The special effects are nowhere near convincing and the acting is just plain awful. Try to avoid this film at all costs. 1/2 of shark bite out of five.

    This should be listed as a comedy. Has to be seen to be believed, never laughed so much at a horror!

    Okay, if I was asked my favourite film of all time it would be the Evil Dead Trilogy. I grew up with them so the reason they are my favourite is a personal reason. But if you were to ask me the best film in terms of pure filmmaking and influence on film as a whole it would have...( read more) to be this one. I really am surprised people even bother making films after this one was made, they can't do anything new. And screenwriters take note, this film has some of the greatest dialogue ever written. One line in particular seems to stand out.
    Masterpiece. Genius. Perfection. All those words would be an insult to describe Shark Attack 3's greatness. Truly makes Jaws obsolete.

    seriously wanted to kill myfirend jamie for picking this movie out it was so bad, some bits were very funny just cause of how bad it was but i think this is what being raped feels like.

    I just have to say! the absolute best film of all time, for the sole reason that it is that awful! and of course that u get to see John Barrowman Wet, in a wet suit or in tight jeans the whole film! so that is just great in itself! but there are so many things wrong with this film so it is fabulous!
