A dim witted & entirely shoddy rip-off of JAWS directed by none other than Enzo G. Castellari. To say Castellari, director of many great Italian crime thrillers, is out of his depth here is an understatement. When a 35 foot shark invades the waters off of an unnamed coastal community, James Franciscus & Vic Morrow (as deep sea divers?) attempt to kill it. Franciscus is bland while Morrow is absolutely dreadful...at times brandishing an Italian accent, at other times sounding Irish and then occasionally speaking with zero accent at all. All this and the inane dialog would be forgivable had the shark looked even remotely realistic (it doesn't).
