Hey look what Aslym Productions just shat out again, another stupid shark film!  But it's different!  I has a two-headed shark in the film!  So different!  Also, Carmen Electra: The Mark of Quality.

Well since I'm not one to judge the quality of any film before actually watching it, I'll hold my opinion until I see it.  Any thoughts?

I almost hate to admit it but I consider myself an Asylum fan. Their films crack me up. Plus, it's got Carmen Electra in it, which equals instant win. Oh yes, I shall be watching this.

Looks really, really awful. About what you' expect from Asylum, the filmakers of choice for Syfy originals. I'd be willing to watch it if I didn't have to pay for it, and I had some alcohol to make the stupid easier to swallow.

Yup. I've learned that any time I see "The Asylum presents" on the screen the television needs to go off. If I start seeing commercials for this on "Syfy" I'm throwing a fit.

Well, it looks like the girls are in bikinis for the whole movie.  So at least there's that.  I'm a bit more interested in their other upcoming film, "Nazis at the Center of the Earth".  Or even "American Battleship" would be more interesting than yet another mutant shark movie.

New source for the trailer.

Looks like every other Shark movie of the last few years. Now I am a big shark movie fan, but the Asylum films never really have the right tone - despite the titles being pure schlock, the storylines never seem as entertainingly daft as, say, the old Nu-Image films of the early 2000s. Perhaps it is restrictions by SyFy, but the films I have seen have a distinct lack of gratuitous gore and nudity.

I saw it. It was bad even by Asylum standards. I was looking forward to the shark eating pretty much everyone; they were all pretty annoying and too dumb to live.

Plenty of science stupidity in the script, too. If you don't know anything about biology or geology, just leave it out of the script, okay?

This one did feature the gore and nudity you mentioned, though.

They're usually not short on gore, but they don't usually have nudity. That's what happens when they're made for TV (the Syfy channel).

I watched the show Monster Man when they were designing the shark for one of the scenes.  Or at least I think it was for this movie.  So hard to tell nowadays.

Yep, it was for this one. The producers' original design for the two headed shark was even worse - the two heads were aligned vertically - making for a really stupid-lookin' monster shark.

Sounds like the greatest contribution to crap shark cinema since Sharktopus.  I am already there, people.

You'll love it. Every victim must be bitten by both heads at once and then torn in half.

Guess what's going on my Netflix queue next time I see it!  :teddyr:
