A place for lovers of B movies to come together and talk about them.

Rules:

  1. Be most excellent to one another. (Don't be a jerk)
  2. Try not to repost movies that have already been posted. (If it has been over 12 months feel free to repost)
  3. If posting links for people to watch the movies let them be legal ones. (Free is best but not when it's shady, you dig?)
  4. Have fun and enjoy all the awesomeness that B movies can bring you.

Just my personal ranking of the shark movies I watched for c/BMovieBonanza Shark Week 20th-27th July, 2025. All I cared about was entertainment value, not serious artistic merit.

My Shark Week 2025 Movie Ranking

Title Rating
1 Ninja vs Shark 5
2 Meg 2: The Trench 4.5
3 Under Paris 4
4 Shark Night 3.5
5 Santa Jaws 2.5
6 Shark! 2
7 Cocaine Shark 1
8 Narco Shark 0

WARNING:

  • All these films (except maybe Santa Jaws, Meg 2, and Shark!) should not be viewed by children.
  • Cocaine Shark and Narco Shark shoud not be viewed by anyone.

(I should probably downgrade Cocaine Shark's score to half or even a quarter of a shark, but that's the score I gave it in my original post so it stays.)

Ninja vs Shark is better than The Meg 2? OK, I gotta check it out for sure now.

IMHO. Your mileage may vary. Personally, I like ronin movies and batshit movies, so NvS hit several sweet spots for me.

Giving Under Paris a 4/10 seems egregious to me. I'm aware you're grading on a scale but that movie was atrocious

[–] klu9@piefed.social 4 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Oh, it's more egregious than that. That's 4 out of 5!

[–] makeshiftreaper@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

If on a curve you still give that movie a B then I admire your commitment to watching garbage

[–] klu9@piefed.social 1 points 5 days ago

Well, I did watch Cocaine Shark to the bitter end... whether that means I am committed or should be committed is for the Mental Health Board to decide.

Wow, that's a reeaally low score.
