Sand Sharks (2011)

[Kaseykockroach]

We need a good snake or bat movie. Sure, we have Anaconda, Bats (1999) or Nightwing and the like, but I said a GOOD snake or bat movie.
Sharks have Jaws.
Piranhas have PIranha.
Spiders have Kingdom of the Spiders.
Ants have Them! and Empire of the Ants.
Alligators/Crocodiles had Alligator (1980).
But snakes and bats haven't had a goodie yet.

What about Mega Python vs Gatoroid or Vipers for snakes?

[Kaseykockroach]

The former, um, no.
Haven't seen Vipers, though.

Haven't seen Vipers, though.

It's a Syfy Original from 2008 with Tara Reid.  Had some good parts...

Sci-Fi original?
I'll pass.
The Reptile (1966) is alright, though.

Sci-Fi original?
I'll pass.

I'm the guy who does the weekly podcast about the Syfy Original Movies so I'm going to tend to go with those more than most folks.

No trailer yet but I'm expecting a cheap SyFy Tremors-type clone. So I'm all for it!

It's not that good. It's less like a Tremors clone and more like a really bad knock-off of Jaws.

This one has the most pulled-from-the-ass method of defeating the monsters ever, and that's saying a lot for this grade of movie.

[Ted C]

Alligators/Crocodiles had Alligator (1980).

Better yet, Lake Placid.

O-Kay...
Alligator Vs. Crocosaurus Vs. Mega Python Vs. Dinocrock Vs. Snow sharks Vs. Sharktopus Vs. Mega Shark Vs. Ice Spiders Vs. Sand Sharks Vs...Good grief! If you put all them together, you could spend all day!
Remember MST3K Turkey day?
Bwa-hahahahaha!...

Now I really wanted to see a movie where the earth is over run by all sorts of bad Cg monsters at the same time.  It could be like the Sy-Fy version of Destroy All Monsters. 

Now we just have to come up with a legitimate cast of the best C-grade actors we can find to star in it!

SPOILER ALERT

The guy channeling Quint wants to lure them into a narrow, sandy inlet and then melt the sand into glass around them. They just need some way to get the sand hot enough. So, the sleazy guy produces a can of super-concentrated napalm. Why the hell does he have super napalm? Don't ask such silly questions! And the crazy old guy channeling Quint produces a flamethrower to shoot the stuff. Why does he have a flamethrower when he doesn't even have fuel for it?? Don't ask such silly questions!

And somehow, the flame melts the sand to a depth of twenty feet!

What?  People don't randomly have super napalm and flamethrowers were you live?

I want to see this one, but the DVD cost is still in the $20-$25 range.  These movies usually start out there and then after a few months the price falls to $10-$15.  Hopefully this will happen soon, because knowing how the movie ends is not helping me be patient.

Curse you, Ted C!

YES! That could rock...Oh, add the wee beasties from D-wars! And the giant octopus...and whatever else we can think of.
Sy-Fy Toho- awaaaaay!
