Hot Spring Shark Attack

“A shark movie from Japan!”

Premium Crap. CrapScore 74, rated by 1 admin.

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

Why it’s crap
Ancient sharks invade the plumbing and public spaces of a Japanese hot-spring town. Ordinary holiday activities become opportunities for improbable attacks, with variable digital effects adding to the handmade absurdity. An openly gonzo shark film that keeps looking for another place water ought to be safe.
