‘Hot Spring Shark Attack’ Is Goofy and It Knows It

If you’re looking for adventure horror filled with toothy creatures and slick special effects, buy a ticket for Jurassic World Rebirth.

And how does a town dependent on tourism deal with this extremely inconvenient new threat? All is revealed in the goofiest ways. Hot Spring Shark Attack being released so c

The Director of ‘Jaws @ 50’ Explains Why It’s the Ultimate Chronicle of the Classic

Jaws officially turned 50 last week, and it’s easy to imagine that Steven Spielberg’s shark thriller—Hollywood’s first summer blockbuster—will be considered just as much of a classic in 50 more years. National Geographic’s annual “Sharkfest” programming marks the milestone with Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story, a new documentary from frequent Spielberg collaborator Laurent Bouzereau (Music by John Williams).

‘Back to the Future’ and ‘Jaws’ Get Shrunk Down for Nostalgic SDCC Exclusives

The year 2025 is a big one for both Jaws and Back to the Future. The Steven Spielberg shark classic celebrates its 50th anniversary, while the Robert Zemeckis time travel classic celebrates its 40th anniversary.

The JAWS shark is public domain

As we’re all celebrating the 50th anniversary of the movie Jaws, here’s something I bet you didn’t know: Due to a fluke of publishing and copyright law, the Jaws shark is public domain. It’s not the character of the shark that’s public domain – or someone would surely be making a low-budget horror prequel about how he became the Amity Island Killer. But I’m talking about the famous shark painting from the movie poster: Yep. That painting, the same one that appeared on the cover of the paperbac

'Shark Week' Comes Early as 'Jaws' Turns 50. Here's Where to Watch All the Movies

Somehow, five decades have passed since Steven Spielberg's Jaws chewed up the big screen. Turning the big Five-Oh is a big deal, so it's time to celebrate. The iconic movie, based on Peter Benchley's novel of the same name, took style notes from Hitchcock and the grindhouse movies of the era and became the first-ever summer blockbuster. Jaws isn't a complicated movie: It tells the story of a vengeful shark and the tourist beach town of Amity Island, which it decided to terrorize. The movie sta
