It follows the stories of eight people – dealing with waking up with someone new or familiar and how they handle their need for instant gratification, intimacy issues and infidelities.

Sand Sharks

Stars: Corin Nemec, Gina Holden, Julie Berman, Brooke Hogan, Nick Hogan, Vanessa Lee Evigan | Written by Cameron Larson | Directed by Mark Atkins

When you get a movie to review called Sand Sharks you can already guess what is coming. This is going to be one of those crazy shark films that use dodgy CGI and bad acting but just don’t seem to care. They don’t make these films to be good, if anything they ham it up to insane levels and just go with it. You’ll either groan or just go with it and love it. I’m one of those people that usually groan but I gave Sand Sharks a chance.

The stories for these movies are pretty barebones at best but I’d say this one actually tried to some extent, being that it stole the Jaws idea and runs with it with...

The search for the bottom of the creature feature barrel continues with “Sand Sharks”, a film which explores the long pondered philosophical question as to what would happen if sharks could in fact swim through sand. Boldly tackling this controversial issue are director Mark Atkins (also responsible for the charming “Battle of Los Angeles”) and writers Cameron Larson (“Mysterious Island”, “Alligator X”) and Joe Benkis (“Shadow People”), with an intriguing cast of television stars and vaguely familiar genre faces that includes Corin Nemec (“Supernatural”), Brooke Hogan (“Brooke Knows Best”), Gina Holden (“Saw 3D”), Julie Berman (“General Hospital”), Nick Hogan (“Hogan Knows Best”) and Vanessa Lee Evigan (“Journey To The Centre Of The Earth”). For the brave or curious, “Sand Sharks” hits region 2 DVD in January through Chelsea Films. The plot, such as it is, proudly follows the time honoured “Jaws” formula pretty much to the letter, kicking off with a...

After watching movies like Jaws and Shark Night 3D we all know it's not safe to swim in the water with sharks. What if sharks were able to swim in the sand and the water? I guess we are about to find out in a new horror/ sci-fi comedy movie hitting the American Film Market this week called Sand Sharks. Sand Sharks is directed by Mark Atkins (Battle of Los Angeles) and the screenplay is written by Cameron Larson. The film stars Gina Holden (Saw 3D, Final Destination 3), Vanessa Lee Evigan (Journey to the Center of the Earth), Eric Scott Woods (Dark Metropolis) and Corin Nemec (3-3-3), Julie Berman and Nick Hogan (Hulk Hogans son).

American World Pictures (Awp), a leading independent motion picture distribution and production company, and Remember Dreaming Productions, have now released a trailer for the Sci-Fi feature film Sand Sharks, directed by Mark Atkins (Battle of Los Angeles) and starring Corin Nemec ("Stargate Sg-1," "The War At Home") and Brooke Hogan ("Brooke Knows Best," "Hogan Knows Best"). The film, written by Cameron Larson also stars Gina Holden (Saw 3D, Final Destination 3), Vanessa Lee Evigan (Journey to the Center of the Earth), Eric Scott Woods (Dark Metropolis) and Julie Berman. "In this Sci-Fi feature, prehistoric sand-dwelling sharks are unleashed on the island of White Sands when an underwater earthquake cracks open a crater deep beneath the ocean surface. The most menacing beasts to ever rule the waters, now rule the sand; with their monster appetites they mercilessly munch on anything that crosses their path."...

Hottie Brooke Hogan as a shark scientist!? Babes bouncing about on beaches!? And a prehistoric man-eater feeding on those brave enough to walk the sands!? Then you must be referring to Mark Atkins' 'Sand Sharks'. The Asylum production has revealed a new trailer featuring all of the above mentioned goodies. Hogan (below) co-stars alongside Corin Nemec, Gina Holden ('Saw 3D'), Eric Scott Woods, Vanessa Lee Evigan and Julie Berman. Mark Atkins directs from a script by Cameron Larson. Check out the trailer below with exactly the right freeze frame in place....

The time has come for you to feast your eyes on the trailer for Sand Sharks . I know, I know...what a Halloween treat, right? I can feel your excitement - it's been growing since we first told you about the film many months ago. Well, here you have it. Sand Sharks , starring Corin Nemec, Brooke Hogan, Vanessa Evigan, Eric Scott Woods and Gina Holden. This shit is about to change your life. Mark Atkins directed the film. He gave us a lot of Asylum-produced fare. 'Nuff said.

This one has Syfy Channel written all over it, which means I will watch it.

An underwater earthquake cracks open a crater deep beneath the ocean’s surface unleashing a prehistoric predator. On the sleepy island of White Sands, local teens drink and party beside a beach bonfire. One of them wanders off after a pretty girl and disappears, leaving only a severed hand behind. It appears it’s been bitten and ripped off by a vicious animal. This looks like a shark bite, but it’s found well above the high tide line, it can’t be a shark… Or can it? Jimmy Green (Corin Nemec), prodigal party boy and son of the mayor, returns home to White Sands with a scheme to breathe some life into the dying economy (and clear his debt to a mobster) by throwing a huge spring break party: The Sandman Festival. Jimmy runs into his ex,...

I don’t care what sweet candy you get in your trick or treat bag this Halloween; this just posted trailer for Sand Sharks is the tastiest treat you’ll snack on all day. It’s the Piranha 3D meets Blood Beach movie you’ve been waiting for.

Spring breakers have gathered for the annual Sandman Festival. Organizer Corin Nemec smells money. Unfortunately, a species of prehistoric sand tiger shark smells blood. Deputy Sheriff Vanessa Lee Evigan wants to close the beach when revelers fall victim to a shark that can swim through sand like water.

If that premise sounds too far-fetched for your feeble minds, then now might not be the best time to mention the shark scientist they turn to is played by Hulk Hogan’s daughter, Brooke Hogan.

The demented geniuses behind Sand Sharks are screenwriter Cameron Larson and filmmaker Mark Atkins, a long-time Asylum director most...

Is that a scantily clad Brooke Hogan in this first poster for Sand Sharks? The answer is probably yes, as Sand Sharks takes a page out of Piranha 3D's playbook. This graphic looks eerily similar to this earlier film and how sharks travel through sand is up to horror fans' imaginations. Take a peek at this early tease, with American World Pictures set to sell this creature feature domestically and abroad.

Thursday, September 3, has seen the Los Angeles premiere of Summit Entertainment's horror thriller "Sorority Row". While red carpet was rolled down in front of ArcLight Hollywood, the special screening was dominated with black as many of the film's stars and other celebrity guests coming were opting to dress in the dark color.

Rumer Willis who stars as Ellie, Briana Evigan who takes on Cassidy, Audrina Patridge who plays Megan, and Jamie Chung who portrays Claire all went dark on the special occasion. Their co-stars, Leah Pipes and Margo Harshman, however chose to go with a lighter color. Pipes went with light magenta, while Harshman wore an ivory white gown.

Some of the girls didn't walk down the red carpet solo. Willis arrived accompanied by her boyfriend Micah Alberti and celebrity mother Demi Moore. Meanwhile, Evigan brought along her famous family, mother Pamela Serpe, father Greg Evigan and sister Vanessa Lee Evigan.
