"Entertaining release. Documentary about fictional shark movies like Jaws and Sharknado. Excellent transfer that looks and sounds great. Comes with extra or extended interviews. Nifty artwork on the sleeve and slip."
"documentary offers an incredibly fun and thorough deep dive into the history of killer shark cinema from pre-Jaws classics to low-budget modern B-movies."
"Really good documentary. Just wished it was longer and covered lesser known titles in more detail."
"Sharksploitation is a fun, easy watch that shows off all the crazy shark movies out there—from good to downright ridiculous. If you’re into creature flicks or just want something entertaining, it’s a good time."
"This movie talks about every single shark sighting on celluloid ever! Or so it seems, maybe they missed one? This is a deep deep dive into the world of shark cinema. You asked for it, here it is! It goes into pre and post jaws experiences."
"Really interesting and wellmade documentary!"
"I’m a sucker for docs on films, and even more on whole sub-genres. This a really fun doc on shark films. The first time I watched it I came away with a massive list of films to check out, and I was super happy to see this getting a physical release. Extras are decent, but it’s the stunning artwork that really sold me. Big recommend!"
"Great documentary"
"Absolutely love this documentary and it is very well made. Focuses on Peter benches and his efforts for ocean preservation, but also shows you some of the greatest shark movies ever made. And yes, lots of Jaws. Lots. Love the Deep blue sea bit. Get this. Now."
"pretty extenstive doc, Very fun, and you get bonus scenes that wasnt included. it also comes with small a booklet, i wish they took a more deep dive into the more modern trashy shark films, but overall interesting and enjoyable."
