Who would you rather meet in the water? A great white shark or, Jai Courtney? All these questions and more are answered in this week's episode on one of the best movies of 2025, DANGEROUS ANIMALS.

A serial killer uses his cage diving business to lure and kill tourists at the jaws of his fishy friends. But in this crazy world, the sharks are the least of everyone's worries.

This month's JAWS50 takes us into a movie starring Richard Dreyfuss (Jaws) and Scout Taylor-Compton (Halloween).

Some super bad guys, make these people dive down for some stuff, but there's sharks in the way, and then...wait, haven't we done this before?

THIS EPISODE IS CURSED!

This was recorded some time ago, and never released because I thought it was bad. Turns out I was just sick and wasn't as bad as I thought. Even editing it for this release, I was sick. But here it finally is!

A gangster loses a shipment of gold, and hires a crew of divers in 1940's Australia. And the guess what? Yeah, a shark comes and ruins everyone's day.

Spooky Sharktober has come to an end!

This week, I asked BAD MOVIES WORSE PEOPLE to join me, and finish a journey we started ages ago, and finish this franchise off.

Week 3 of SPOOKY SHARKTOBER

This week I look into one of the entries for the CAMP BLOOD franchise, CAMP BLOOD: CLOWN SHARK (2024) directed by our favourites, Mark Polonia and Jeff Kirkendall.

When a killer clown is put down, months later he returns as a clown fish (not to be confused with a clownfish) and later, the titular CLOWN SHARK!

So how does this one stack up to the rest this month? Tune in now to find out

SPOOKY SHARKTOBER episode 2 is here!

This week I look at a sequel to one of my favourite movies from the first year of the podcast. OUIJA SHARK 2 finds us mere months after the first one, and this time we've got singing demons, ghost shark AND a Tarot Gator! Oh, and even a cameo from Bucket of Chum theme song creator MIKE TREBILCOCK!

Get the planchette ready, and let me tell you the tale of the shark vs the gator.

SPOOKY SHARKTOBER STARTS NOW!

I'm kicking this month off with a Polonia Brother's Shark take on The Mummy! MUMMY SHARK (2024) finds a group of researchers and government employees digging up the past, that was better left buried and forgotten. The Polonia's have given us SHARKULA and SHARKENSTEIN for the Halloween season, and now we have this. How does it hold up against the others? Listen now to find out.

OCTOPUS AUGUST CONTINUES

This week I dive in to the sequel (?) of last week's movie and check out OCTOPUS 2: RIVER OF FEAR (2001).

In this installment we head to New York City where people are mysteriously disappearing, and it's up to a hard headed detective to convince everyone a giant sea monster is responsible. It's like Alligator or Jaws, but with an octopus.

Does this movie deliver? Or does it disappoint like last week's movie? Tune in now to find out!
