This one was so bad and I knew it was gonna be but I have to admit that it was hilarious and kinda enjoyable to watch and since I'm a fan of shark movies it was fun. The acting was so bad I was laughing all the way throughout the film but for a comedy it's really good.

The opening scene shows the creation of Ghost Shark when a Great White is killed by a redneck tournament fishing couple on a chartered boat. Said wounded shark swims to a nearby sea cave that behaves similar to Pet Cemetery. The next day the bikini clad daughters Ava (Mackenzie Rosman) and Cicily (Sloane Coe) discover their dad's deserted blood stained boat. It isn't long before a CG translucent shark can appear at will in anything that contains water from a swimming pool to a slip'n'slide.

One man in town, Finch (Richard Moll), a Pinch Scotch (personal favorite) drinking, creepy light house keeper, seems to know what is going on.

The production started out fairy decent freely mixing bad special effects, campy dialog, and cleavage. It included sage truisms such as "Horny boys will say anything." When the film turned "serious" the bad campy dialogue gave way to simply bad dialogue which lowered the entertainment value of the film and did little to improve its Oscar potential. The movie was filmed in Louisiana. The name of the fictional town was "Smallport." The police car said "Kenner," apparently a magnetic sign was out of the budget with all the special effects.

Parental Guide: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity. Girls in bikinis, bikini car wash. Implied nudity from back. Use of SOB at beginning of film. Squirting blood, fake looking body parts.

Don't expect much from Ghost Shark. If you've seen Super Shark, Sand Sharks, Jersey Shore Shark Attack and even Sharknado(do the Shark Attack movies count too?) you'll know that you shouldn't expect a SyFy channel shark movie to be particularly good. Ghost Shark is a long way from good, but it is better than the first three movies listed- and the Shark Attack movies- if not quite reaching hilariously bad guilty-pleasure status like Sharknado did. And it certainly isn't the worst SyFy movie. It isn't too badly shot and edited, plus the scenery is nice, while the gore is inventive and not too cheap and the acting is adequate(especially for SyFy), Richard Moll stands out in a creepy and over-the-top performance and the female lead is likable. That is a feat though, but the dialogue is cliché-ridden, underwritten and has too much of the cheese factor. The story- deriving from a silly but potentially fun concept- is much too rushed too, which doesn't give us much time to root enough for the characters(who are little more than just-there and poorly developed stereotypes). It also veers wildly between mildly credible at best to hilariously ludicrous, with the attacks more outrageous than suspenseful or scary. The shark does look very cheap and is not particularly menacing in design or personality, goofy is more like it. In conclusion, bad but hilariously so rather than infuriatingly. 4/10 Bethany Cox
