msblackeyes68 It had to be done you know. There are so many flicks out about avenging spirits of the human nature. Why not one about a shark?It's an interesting concept actually. One I'm surprised hasn't been done for Jaws. After all wasn't the final one about him following her to Jamaica? Why not the ghost of the ones they killed?!?Course in this one any body of water will do. A car wash. Bathtub. Sink.... Which if your going to have an avenging ghost shark you can't limit him to the ocean right? . LolIf you go into this movie expecting just a fun time and amusing concept then you will be entertained. If you go in thinking it's going to be a "jaws" like movie then you will be seriously disappointed. The title alone gives you an idea on the value of the film. Watch it. Laugh. For equal entertainment read the reviews. There is one that will make you giggle and then "goggle" You'll know exactly which one I'm referring to as soon as you read it. It's good for at least 5 min of laughter.

TheLittleSongbird Don't expect much from Ghost Shark. If you've seen Super Shark, Sand Sharks, Jersey Shore Shark Attack and even Sharknado(do the Shark Attack movies count too?) you'll know that you shouldn't expect a SyFy channel shark movie to be particularly good. Ghost Shark is a long way from good, but it is better than the first three movies listed- and the Shark Attack movies- if not quite reaching hilariously bad guilty-pleasure status like Sharknado did. And it certainly isn't the worst SyFy movie. It isn't too badly shot and edited, plus the scenery is nice, while the gore is inventive and not too cheap and the acting is adequate(especially for SyFy), Richard Moll stands out in a creepy and over-the-top performance and the female lead is likable. That is a feat though, but the dialogue is cliché-ridden, underwritten and has too much of the cheese factor. The story- deriving from a silly but potentially fun concept- is much too rushed too, which doesn't give us much time to root enough for the characters(who are little more than just-there and poorly developed stereotypes). It also veers wildly between mildly credible at best to hilariously ludicrous, with the attacks more outrageous than suspenseful or scary. The shark does look very cheap and is not particularly menacing in design or personality, goofy is more like it. In conclusion, bad but hilariously so rather than infuriatingly. 4/10 Bethany Cox

Sean Jump Obviously any film with the ghost of a dead shark as its antagonist is going to be pretty far out there, but the filmmakers deserve credit for taking the idea for what it is and running with it for all its worth. Unlike some other SyFy original productions, "Ghost Shark" embraces its b-movie nature and never tries to be anything other than a wildly fun monster movie. Production values are fairly good, and the spirit-shark may not win any FX awards but it looks pretty much like a giant ghostly fish ought to. Some of the attack scenes are outrageous, so much so that the viewer is more likely to laugh with glee than scream in terror, but I think that's the point. The protagonists--the usual horror movie teen set--are a varied bunch, ranging from the incredibly hot but wicked blonde who dies a quick death (wish they had kept her around for a few more scenes...she really rocked that bikini!) to the mayor's bratty son to the determined good girl and the nerd who has a crush on her. Acting is adequate and nobody embarrasses themselves, and Richard Moll adds a touch of seasoned professionalism to the proceedings as a grieving lighthouse operator who everyone thinks is crazy but is the only one who knows how the spectral predator can be stopped. "Ghost Shark" isn't a genre classic and it's easy enough to think of ways it could have been better, but as it stands it's still a fun creature feature and far better than some similar films, such as the much more strenuously promoted but far inferior "Sharknado." Anyone who enjoys b-movies and outlandish monster flicks should have a blast with "Ghost Shark."

wes-connors In the opening minutes, expect a trio of southern-accented boaters ("rednecks") to bite the dust. They kill a great white shark, which turns into a blue-glowing "Ghost Shark". Considering later events, the story might have been better off starting with the flashback which occurs near the end. For whatever reasons, the beach community "Smallport" is quickly terrorized. Ghost sharks need to eat, too. This one, being spiritual, is not restricted to the beach. It manifests itself wherever water accumulates...A swimming pool party, bikini car wash, leaky sink and bathtub are among the areas haunted...Versatile director Griff Furst handles this assignment very well. The likable cast is led by Dave Davis (as Blaise Parker) and Mackenzie Rosman (as Ava Reid), both going places. Creepy lighthouse keeper Richard Moll (as Darnell Finch) may be able to solve the mystery, if he can stay sober (and stop shouting) long enough. If spirits are real and all dogs go to Heaven, the world must embrace and accept ghost sharks. The story doesn't take full advantage of the possibilities, but the shark attacks are highly amusing.****** Ghost Shark (8/22/13) G.E. Furst ~ Dave Davis, Mackenzie Rosman, Richard Moll, Sloane Coe
