Sharktopus vs. Whalewolf

Well there is no denying the amount of hot women in this movie, but the rest from acting to scrip to the even worst play station1 special effects kind of ruin the rest.

I kept it going for 40 minutes then turned it off.

In the third entry of this awesome franchise, you have the Sharktopus fighting a "Whalewolf" and yes it's what it sounds like. Our lead is played by the legend Casper van Dien as the alcoholic Ray Brady. It's your typical nonsense chaos just like the first two movies except that this one felt even weirder. The first two movies seemed like their knew what they wanted and they went absolutely bananas with it and had their fun while this movie tries to introduce some voodoo stuff and also has way too much focus on the story and characters and I'm pretty sure no one who watches this is here for that. The people just want to see carnage and badly animated CGI mutants fighting each other and killing off people in a fun and absurd ways and I feel like this movie didn't deliver that as much as the first two. Yeah, the premise is fun but overall I did not enjoy this cinematic masterpiece as much as the first two movies and therefore somehow I am disappointed. [3,5/10]

For some odd reason I keep returning to movies like this, even though you know already that it is 99% likely going to be another stinker. And this whole genre is just loaded with questionable additions that outdo each other in one way or another.

But still, every now and then there are some of these movies that turn out to be entertaining and funny to watch. "Sharktopus vs Whalewolf", however, just wasn't one of those movies.

With movies such as "Sharktopus vs Whalewolf" you already know that you will most likely be in for some questionable CGI and special effects. But "Sharktopus vs Whalewolf" was not even trying. The CGI effects in this movie were among the top of most laughable and poor CGI effects that I have seen in this genre of movies.

The story in "Sharktopus vs Whalewolf" was also among some of the more outrageous and laughable of story lines, even for this particularly unique genre of movies. Why? Well, because it seemed like the writers weren't even trying to be serious.

"Sharktopus vs Whalewolf" is also filled with lame attempts at incorporating comedy in the movie; attempts which really failed at every aspect. And the movie suffered from that.

Catherine Oxenberg has the worst fake German accent ever and puts on one of the worst acting performances in the history of low budget creature features. But that might actually be one of the selling points to the movie, and why you should check it out. Trust me, it is worth watching, because it is bad on an epic scale.

Oh, and there was one scene where I counted 31 shots being fired from a handgun. That was just impressive. So at least there was something impressive to be seen in "Sharktopus vs Whalewolf".

This movie was beyond stupid. I can't believe I even watched it in the first place. The acting was ultra bad, the special effects were comparable to a 3 year old messing around on paint, what the bleep was up with her German accent and what was up with the not nude porn stars??!

If it were possible i would give this movie -100 stars, that's how bad it was.

The money wasted on this could have found better use.

Please never ever even think about making another one of these stupid A** Movies.

(The only reason i watched it till the end was because I wanted to know who wins)

No seriously? What do you expect from a movie with a title like that? Now I have not seen the previous entry into the Sharktopus ... universe I guess you can call it (there are apparantly another two of them prior to this one), so I can't say how this does compared to them.

What I can say, is that the CGI is as bad as one can imagine. Very obvious. So obvious though that the movie is winking almost all the way through it. Like when one character very late in the movie says upon seeing one of the creature eating another person, something along the lines of "that doesn't even look real". Yes the movie is aware of its flaws, the characters are too. Playing catch with a Whalewolf (great name btw)? I mean come on ... also the slapstick of the creature slapping Casper van Dien around? Or showing him on a map where he is, after he asks and wonders exactly that? That doesn't mean that all jokes work. Far from it. Some are just plain bad ... and almost hurt physically. But again, what to expect? Exactly! (although nudity would be something I reckon many did expect ... well you won't get that)
