Sand Sharks is a 2012 motion horror movie in regards to the residents of a small city who crew as much as kill a gaggle of advanced sharks that may swim in sand.
The film was directed by Mark Atkins (Shark Season; Empire of the Sharks; Planet of the Sharks; Evil Eyes; et al) from a screenplay written by Cameron Larson (The Legend of La Llorona; Jurassic Predator: Xtinction; Mysterious Island), primarily based on a narrative co-written with Joe Benkis (Grizzly Flats aka Shadow Folks).
The film stars Corin Nemec (Rottentail; Lake Placid vs. Anaconda; Dracano; Sea Beast), Brooke Hogan (2-Headed Shark Assault) and Vanessa Lee Evigan.
Plot:
Prehistoric sand-dwelling sharks are unleashed on the island of White Sands when an underwater earthquake cracks open a crater deep beneath the ocean floor. Probably the most menacing beats to ever rule the waters now rule the sand; with their monster appetites, they mercilessly feast on something that crosses their path…
Assessment:
“There ain’t no get together like a Sandman get together!” Jimmy Inexperienced declares within the 2012 movie, Sand Sharks, and he’s proper.
Jimmy (performed by Corin Nemec) is notorious for throwing (or, at the least, trying to throw) massive events and organising wild festivals. This film was made earlier than the Fyre Pageant however watching Jimmy as he runs round and assures everybody that he’s about to place collectively the best music pageant that the world has ever seen, it’s onerous to not be reminded of the decided and incompetent individuals who had been behind that legendary catastrophe. Then once more, nobody was eaten by a shark throughout the Fyre Pageant. Jimmy can’t make the identical declare about his events.
In actual fact, after we first meet Jimmy, he’s attempting to rebuild his popularity after his earlier get together led to tragedy. Apparently, fifteen folks died at that get together and, although we don’t get all the small print, it’s insinuated that they had been eaten by sharks. Jimmy isn’t one to let shark-related tragedy get him down, nonetheless. As an alternative, he’s doing to placed on one other Sandman Pageant and this time, he’ll preserve everybody on the seaside and out of the water! Fortuitously, for Jimmy, his father simply occurs to be the mayor of a beachside neighborhood.
Sadly, it seems that sharks aren’t simply within the ocean. There’s additionally on the seaside, swimming beneath the sand. They’re sand sharks! Now, the film does present an evidence for why all of these sharks are shifting round beneath the sand however it’s actually not vital. The vital factor is that they’re out and so they’re consuming nearly everybody that they meet. That’s going to be an issue so far as the Sandman Pageant is anxious. Fortuitously, Jimmy and the authorities are in a position to kill one sand shark. Nonetheless, when Jimmy discovers that there’s multiple sand shark, he retains that information to himself. The present should go on! You possibly can most likely guess what occurs subsequent….
The sand sharks are lots of enjoyable and this Syfy movie gives loads of spring break mayhem as festival-goers are yanked underneath the sand however, for me, the principle attraction of this movie is seeing Corin Nemec simply unleashed like a drive of nature. Nemec begins the movie going at about 100 miles per hour and he doesn’t decelerate for a single second. As performed by Nemec, Jimmy by no means stops speaking and he by no means stops hustling and he’s so dedicated to placing on the best pageant ever that it’s unattainable to not like him, even when his actions do find yourself getting lots of people killed. Nemec appears to be having lots of enjoyable with the function of Jimmy and it’s simply as a lot enjoyable to observe him.
In fact, Jimmy isn’t the one character within the movie. Brooke Hogan performs Physician Sandy Powers, who’s a shark knowledgeable. At one level, Sandy seems to be out on the seaside and tells Sheriff John Stone (Eric Scott Woods) that “We’re caught between a rock and a shark place,” and in the event you don’t cheer for that line, I fear about you and your sense of humour. As that line signifies, Sand Sharks is a movie that cheerfully embraces the ludicrousness of its storyline. It doesn’t take itself too significantly and neither do you have to. That is the kind of movie the place folks usually snap, “Chunk me!” proper earlier than a shark leaps out of the sand and does simply that. That is pure leisure and, in the event you’re a fan of Syfy shark movies, Sand Sharks is lots of enjoyable. Between the sand sharks and Corin Nemec enjoying the hipster-from-Hell, what extra may you need?

Different opinions:
“Shock information! Sand Sharks isn’t horrible. Regardless of the identify, plot, characters, actors and dialogue, Sand Sharks is loveably idiotic and a fully, ridiculously shameless horror movie. Enjoyable with associates and a bellyful of alcohol, this isn’t a “good” horror film however definitely chortle.” Gore Press
” …there are all of twenty folks on the supposedly thousand-strong “get together.” With no gore or nudity, it even fails as an exploitation piece. A person runs round in circles singing “row row row your boat”, undoing any of the goodwill earned by the Trip of the Valkyries montage solely moments beforehand.” HorrorTalk
“Whereas Jaws was a reasonably superior movie, and Piranha a good-natured, tongue in cheek Jaws rip-off, Sand Sharks is only a plain outdated waste of time. It’s like a bunch of crack-up youngsters determined it will be mega-rad to make an “ironic” reboot of Spielberg’s old-timey hit, and never even bothered to observe it within the first place.” Love Horror
