Peta Wilson not in the credits


Looks like she didn't want this one showing up on her resume.

The sad thing is she was probably the worst actor in the movie too...

It was pretty obvious she didn't care. She came in for a paycheck, that's it.

I thought the worst actor was the lead lifeguard. The scene where he asked
Barb to tell him what she knows about the Goblin shark and he pretended to be
interested while she was speaking.

Aw, c'mon: if the only thing you'd been offered for the last four or five years after you left a smash-hit like La Femme Nikita was a piece of trash like this, you'd have phoned in your performance, too. I hope Peta Wilson got a pile of money for this and laughed all the way to a bank in the Caymans.

As for the quality of the acting in this drivel, even the sharks were bad. That's on the dopey director, the excruciatingly bad script, and the cheesy producers. The "Jaws" films had a higher overall caliber, not just of directors, actors and acting, but of everything else that went into them. The rest of the "scary fish" genre (yes, I know sharks are really mammals) are just filler in between fake wrestling, perfect for a stupid summer schedule that just reeks of old, cheap USA Network, the same bastards who pulled Nikita in the first place. It's like for 12 weeks of the year, they're willing to tolerate a decent series or two like BSG, Eureka, the Stargate series, Burn Notice or Royal Pains, then they go the cheap-ass route the rest of the year and expect us not to notice. What I might enjoy more is video of the USA Network execs and the 'pro' wrestlers they use for filler getting eaten by a few real sharks so that we didn't have to watch crap like this anymore.

I'm a hard sci-fi reader/viewer, and this is just the same insult offered by USA/SciFi over and over again. They learned nothing from their experience with Battlestar Galactica, which brought them tons of adult ***and female*** viewers whom they are now insistently driving away. Way to go, bozos. It doesn't matter how they spell it, SciFi or SyFy or Schmy-Fi -- if it weren't for the occasional treasure like Eureka and Battlestar Galactica, nobody would bother with this channel EXCEPT 15-year-old boys: they're the only ones dumb enough to fall for this crap. This is why I watch BSG on DVD and reruns of La Femme Nikita online instead.

Sharks are fish, dude.

reply

Yes indeedy sharks are fish with cartilage, the rest (afair) are bony. Neither are mammals - that's whales and dolphins.

Best, fuelair

if it isn't funny enough have someone hit in the face with a fish. Since Thorne Smith likes it ...

reply

Um, yes she is. First, as a matter of fact.

All SyFy flicks are cheesy. Thats why you watch them, not for the stellar, Oscar winning performances...

Just sit and enjoy. I Admit..i laughed out loud a few times.

reply

her constant grimace should be credited.





Oh, and remember, next Friday is Hawaiian shirt day.

Yes she is in the credits. She's the bottom name of the first credits screen so maybe you missed it, expecting her to be up top. Anyway what a craptastic movie. At least one ridiculous thing happens every minute. Haven't had that much fun since "Yeti: Curse of the Snow Demon"!
