El Tiburón de tres cabezas

While I didn't think much at all of 2-Headed Shark Attack, this was worse. The former at least tried to be fun (although the cheapness and ineptitude of it all got in the way) and had one cast member who tried, but 3-Headed Shark Attack takes itself too seriously, as well as being so stupid and being unoriginal in doing so, with next to nothing that makes it stand out from other shark movies (apart from with the shark) and wastes the talent it has.

3-Headed Shark Attack is by far the worst looking of the SyFy shark movies aired this year. Any nice scenery that the movie has is difficult to appreciate when the movie is shot in such a drab way and when it's edited so amateurishly that bacon-slicer-like editing looks more refined. Worst of all in this regard are the effects, as it was made on low-budget it would have been forgiven a little if it was not great, but when the effects for the shark look as if no effort was given in making them without looking so goofy and unfinished-looking that is hard to ignore, the only thing that it has that's superior for that of 2-Headed Shark Attack is that the size is more consistent. So is the shark's lack of presence or personality, it's not menacing, it's not scary and it's not fun, it's not even strong enough to bring any unintentional humour or goofiness, that's how bland it is. Music is very generic and adds very little, it's not always appropriate either.

The movie's writing ranges between incredibly bad to appalling, with the exception of two dark comedy moments with the head inside the shark and the boy riding the shark as if skiing, and they only raised a mild chuckle and like they were lifted right out of other shark movies (the latter being a little like in Sharknado 2). Any comedy is incredibly forced and is so cheesy it is enough to make the eyes roll in disbelief, while the more serious moments are very awkwardly written and as trite as anybody can possibly go. The attacks are far too rushed, lack any kind of suspense and the over-silliness to the point of intelligence-insulting stupidity, terrible shark effects, bad editing and even more gratuitous gore further cheapen them. To describe the story as weak is being too insulting to the word weak, it is a very lethargically paced and thin as ice story with lots of padding that is either badly written or serves no point at all to the movie, other than attempts at novelty value, which falls flat on its face because it all feels so tired. It is not fun, it is not scary and it is not thrilling or suspenseful, it's just nothing but tired stupidity.

As for the characters, that they're tired clichés isn't so much a problem, the problem is that they are either obnoxious with them constantly doing stupid things, so bland that it makes zombies seem more animated or both. Some of them are superfluous to the story or come and go out of nowhere constantly. The direction is as flat as a pancake, and the acting is awful with the unforgivable waste of Danny Trejo being one of the movie's biggest offences. Trejo, no matter how hard he tries, has nothing to work with with none of his material playing to his strengths as a performer, and he over-compensates as a result, for someone like Trejo who has a knack for raising a lot of bad movies up a notch it's shameful. Everybody else either overacts painfully or are amateurishly bland.

In summary, despite the small bit of originality with the shark 3-Headed Shark Attack is a dreadful movie all round and near-indefensible. 1/10 Bethany Cox

I am a fan of B-movies and appreciate the humor in them. They are aware of the audiences expectations and delivers.

But this movie really tries to be a real movie. My expectations were very low and only wanted a bit of brainless entertainment. But the brain could not relax with all these unnecessary flaws. Going full speed and barely make any waves. Badly broken things are suddenly whole again. Using the same cut scene over and over and ... again. At least some laws of physics?

I seldom regret watching a movie but this one can with good continence be skipped. It only makes you feel bad that you gave it a chance.

All though Danny Trejo saves it a little it's way below par for B-movies.

Let it slip by you unwatched.

3 HEADED SHARK ATTACK is unsurprisingly a follow-up to 2-HEADED SHARK ATTACK. It's another monster flick from The Asylum, in which an unlikely creation goes after a group of partygoers and various assorted individuals off the coast of Florida.

You know the score by now if you're familiar with The Asylum's work: this is a so-bad-it's-good piece of film-making cheese, loaded with unashamed dodgy special effects, lashings of bloodshed, and almost constant eye candy. The scenarios and situations are ripped off from various movies, including PIRANHA 3D, but nonetheless I found myself enjoying it. The film provides a near-constant stream of shark attack scenes with plenty of goofy acting to applaud.

This is a step up from the previous movie and one of the most fun films from The Asylum that I've yet watched. They even have Danny Trejo making an extended cameo in a spin on his character from MACHETE. Really, though, it's all about the likes of Dawn Hamil and Brianna Ferris parading around in their form-fitting bikinis to titillate male viewers, and some better than average CGI effects used to animate the three-headed shark. Normal cinema-goers will hate this film, but B-movie fans should get a kick or two (or three!) out of it.

3 Headed Shark Attack (2015)

** (out of 4)

A group of scientist come under attack by a mutated three-headed shark and soon the creature is attacking anyone that it can. Soon the group realizes that the sharks are going after pollution, which leads to a cute political message about keeping the world clean.

2-HEADED SHARK ATTACK was a decent monster flick and you know what they say, three heads are better than two. Well, at least this film proves that. Much like the first film, you'd be downright insane if you went into a picture like this expecting any kind of art. Just so you know, there are countless logical issues with the story but if you're willing to watch a movie called 3 HEADED SHARK ATTACK then can you really question logic?

Again, if you're a fan of this type of film then you already know what to expect. A movie like this just needs to be entertaining in a so bad it's good kind of way and I think this film succeeds at that. There are all sorts of bloody attack sequences, which are pretty much and I must admit that the actual look of the shark is quite good. The CGI effects are obviously very cheap but at the same time they at least look better than the majority of the films like this. The performances are decent for what they are and it's Danny Trejo who does the celebrity small part.

3 HEADED SHARK ATTACK is exactly what it sounds like and for the most part it's cheap entertainment.

This is a horrible movie. The animations are terrible and the plot is pathetic. It's obvious they rushed the editing to get this movie out for shark week, but come on SyFy, we can see other boats in the background and they are clearly in a channel with land all around them when they are trying to find a place to get to with the boat. The boat that was sinking one minute, with bodies all over it, was perfectly fine minutes later. One mistake after another. Perhaps you could also try and find actors who can really act next time. The level of acting here is grade level. I get the "B" grade quality of your movies and we normally enjoy that but even we were hard pressed to make it through this stinker. Terrible, terrible movie.
