While you might think this is a JAWS rip-off by the title alone(Universal studios apparently did so much so that they sued him), storywise it's more of a WILLARD rip-off. We substitute sharks for rats though. Actually it's also a sorta-remake of director William Grefe's own STANLEY from 5 years earlier with sharks taking on the snake roles from that film. I loved that earlier film and have just about equal fondness for this one. Richard Jaeckel is our main guy who gets called a "shark lover!" and gets revenge on the world that fears and hunts(fishes?) his friends. You get go-go dancing(swimming?) in a shark tank as a stage show, Oddjob(Harold Sakata) from GOLDFINGER as a heavy and lots of people fed to sharks. AKA THE JAWS OF DEATH
