Deep Blue Sea 2

Agent Coulson

18 years later the sequel arrives

In Deep Blue Sea 2, shark conservationist Dr. Misty Calhoun (Danielle Savre) is invited to consult on a new, top secret project run by pharmaceutical billionaire Carl Durant (Michael Beach). When science meddles with the time-tested process of nature and nurture, the outcome can be deadly.

Hande hoche!

Well it's about bloody time.

Pretty much a carbon copy of the 1st one, but i'll watch it.

SFX look decent but the sets look like something from SyFy channel movie.
It also looks to have about half a dozen characters and they give away the deaths of 3 of them.


Yes, I'll still watch it. To see how they try to top the Samuel L Jackson scene at the very least!

It is a SyFy film of the week.

Haha, WTF? Is this being made purely off the back of the famous / notorious Sam Jackson motivational speech becoming relatively famous?

Man, nostalgia fracking really unearths some random nuggets best forgotten...

This is a straight to DVD, very low-budget flick though simply trading on a known name.

The original had a budget of over $80 million (20 years ago nearly). This one probably $1 million or thereabouts.

The title helps sell it - but it might as well be called "Mega Shark Attack 2: The Reckoning" or the usual schlock they title these SyFy films with.

Doesn't mean it'll be bad, sometimes they're good fun taken at face value, but you wouldn't want to be expecting a genuine sequel to the original.
