thefastereagles Uses God's name in vain. Poor acting at times. Police not professional. All I wanted to say is Gods name was used in vain, this program make you write more or they won't submit it.

TheLittleSongbird Low budget shark films generally do not get a good reputation and one can see why. There are a few guilty pleasure ones, like the first two 'Sharknado' films while not considering them great by any stretch. Most are just painfully amateurish with very little to them to set them apart or make them different, other than the odd silly idea not well executed. The good news is for 'Shark Lake' is that there are far worse shark films out there (those from SyFy and The Asylum are notorious in this regard) and at least there are redeeming values, even if not many. Something that cannot be said for too many other low-budget shark films, of the shark films seen recently 'Shark Lake' is actually one of the least bad. The not so good news is that 'Shark Lake' is still not a good film at all, with a lot wrong with it and the wrong elements are done poorly.That 'Shark Lake' stars, or more like features, Dolph Lundgren is one of three reasons why people are likely to see it for, the others being if they are trying to see as many shark-attack films as possible (my main reason actually) or intrigued by the interesting idea the film had going for it. Lundgren is the best thing about it, his character and presence do feel shoe-horned in and seemed to be mainly there for obligatory star power, but Lundgren does try hard and gives actually a pretty reasonable performance considering what he has to work with.Did think that the scenery was fairly atmospheric, though wasted by how terrible the rest of the production values are and that the location didn't feel enough of its own character. The music is ok, not exactly memorable but gets the job done and there are far more ill-fitting scores in low-budget films.However, everything else is bad. The shark effects look terrible, even for low budget, and there is not much menace, suspense or fun in the mostly under-utilised and under-characterised shark action. No menace or personality here from the threat, not even unintentional humour or weird goofiness.'Shark Lake's' horror element is not scary or suspenseful enough and then there is a romance thrown in that is too bland to feeling anything for and too strange to take seriously. Pretty good idea but executed in a not too good way.Rest of the acting is dreadful, especially from Sara Lane, and the characters are not worth investing in or interesting. The script is a shambles, how the actors said all that awkward and toe-curlingly cringe-worthy dialogue without falling about laughing in front of the camera is worth anyone's guess. The story has nothing to it and doesn't do enough or execute well its main selling point. The direction is flat. Overall, there's worse but there's not much to this. 3/10 Bethany Cox

brandonleeeberhart A mind-shattering masterpiece, assuming you have a mind to shatter.Dolph.What more needs to be said? 5 more lines? OK!Take Ghostbusters, remove the ghosts and the buses, add in a dash of Apocalypse Now and Total Recall, then remove the jungles and mars, and you get Twister. But add Twister to Deep Blue Sea and you get Sharknado. I'm not even joking there, that was a real thing they made like 6 of them.Anyway, this move has sharks and Dolph, maybe nimature golf. I don't know.1652381/14

amesmonde Swimmers and land-lovers begin to become part of the food chain In a quiet town on Lake Tahoe. After Legendary (2013) Dolph Lundgren returns to another creature features themed film in this slightly better than a Syfy feature thanks to some murky CGI. Lundgren with limited screen time plays a black-market exotic species dealer named Clint, I kid you not.With a setting reminiscent of Lake Placid, there's plenty of fake blood, CGI and attacks in two feet of water. It warms up slightly in the last twenty minutes and as the water gets deeper, but don't go expecting Jaws or The Reef, as Dolph and company thump their way to survival. It's played straight and the actors do there best, notable is the young actress Lily Brooks O'Briant and Sara Malakul Lane as cop Meredith Hendricks.To director Jerry Dugan's credit the fantastic location gives it some atmosphere and the night-time scenes hide much of the production's low budge short comings. With an air of seriousness it's better than the endless amount of CGI shark versus... fill in the blank, or spoofs doing the rounds. Its not good or memorable enough to achieve cult status, a lot of effort has gone into this but it's probably no coincidence they're hunting a Bullshark.
