This needed to be Rated R


Shark attacks, pretty college coeds, and booze. Where are the boobies?? You cant make a good shark movie unless its rated R. I needed more gore, topless chicks, and graphic shark attacks. Thats what people want to see when they watch a movie called "Shark Night".

I like guns, slasher movies, and more guns.

Totally agreed. It even tried to be as R-rated as possible without being R-rated. "Puss" instead of you-kn0w-what, constant nudity teases, cutting the swear words short, cutting away from the bloody deaths, etc. It might've been more entertaining then.

Agreed. Stop pandering to the under 17 crowd. Take off the training wheels and make them R-rated again. Leave the teeney boppers the ghost movies and such.

I agree. These are modern-day Roger Corman-type movies. He had enough sense though make R-rated movies that always had some boobs in the first 15 minutes, and even with a fraction of the budget, he never skimped on the grue.

It would be one thing if this WERE a kid's movie like Joe Dante's "The Hole", which I enjoyed immensely. But if you have a bunch of fearsome CGI sharks, you want to see them messily chow down. If you have actresses like Sara Paxton or Katherine McPhee in skimpy bikinis for practically the whole movie, you want to see them--or at least SOMEONE--lose said bikinis at some point. This is just a real tease of a movie in just about every way.

There's plenty of blood, either cgi or practical, but it's all in the water. There's almost no gore, other than Malik's severed arm and the weak burn makeup on the Sheriff. People just seem to disappear into a bloody pool of water. Even Beth's death was tame with a little cgi blood covering her small bites.

What's weird is I thought I rented an Unrated version of this on Netflix when it came out. Or I may just be confusing it with another movie. Eh, I'm checking out Bait and The Reef next.
