Empire of the Sharks

“Mankind just dropped down on the food chain!”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 59, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
A flooded future is ruled by a warlord with a shark army, which makes ordinary naval diplomacy difficult. A ragtag rescue team and an exceptionally theatrical shark cage give this knowing Asylum adventure more personality than another sequence of anonymous swimmers being eaten.
