Hammerhead: Shark Frenzy

William Forsythe, Hunter Tylo (2005) A deadly creature terrorizes a group of scientists on a remote island.

Damn evil Science!... It looks like its one of those movies where the evils of Science! are the cause of all the problems. And yes, I will be using the word "Science!" in place of "science" in this post. So, basically, some scientists are creating some hammerhead shark/human hybrid thing. For what purpose, I'm not really sure. But they are using scantily clad women as their test subjects, so I guess no one can really complain.

Oh, and they just pulled some sort of hybrid embryo out of a woman. Pretty sure the embryo they pulled out of here was bigger than her abdomen where it supposedly came from.

And another thing: is it pathetic that I was able to identify the waterfront of a city I've never been to? I was able to identify Vancouver's waterfront from a quick establishing shot. Probably has something to do with the fact that any sort of waterfront shown on Stargate is from Vancouver (really, along with any other scenes), and a lot of bad SciFi movies are filmed there as well.

Turns out that its an attempt to make people immune to cancer. By turning them into a shark thing.

And apparently even though they're breathing through SCUBA regulators, some divers are able to communicate effectively underwater by talking. Not entirely sure how that works...

And now 2 guys are shooting at the good guys with stock AK47s. AKA ones with no optics of any variety. However, they keep showing the point of view of the shooters with the crosshairs of a scope overlaid on the picture.

And now the same pod hanging off the side of a helicopter has been alternately a rocket launcher and a minigun. I guess whatever suits the needs of the pilot at the time.

And although the bad guys have been shooting at the good guy's helicopter for a solid 15 minutes, nothing has happened. But after only about 30 seconds of shooting at the enemy helicopter, it explodes. Oh, well. Now it looks like the good guys finally managed to hit. Good for them. There was only one good guy, and he managed to blow up a helicopter faster than about 15 bad guys... I guess good hired help is hard to come by these days.

And the evil doctor guy seems to have a laser sight on his syringe. For aiming purposes, I guess...

I'm not sure, but the shark hybrid thing may be attempting to rape some dude in order to procreate. I'm not really sure how that's gonna happen, as they're both dudes... but whatever... Science! But somehow the main woman is involved in the procedure as well. Honestly, I have little to no idea what's actually going on...

OK. Scenario time: There's some fucked up shark thing in a bathtub sized tank. The lead scientist just got eaten by the shark. You have an AK47. What do you do? I'd think the obvious thing to do would be to back up and unload the AK into the tank. Followed by grabbing a few more mags, maybe a rocket launcher or two, and going to town. However, the guy in this movie decided to step forward and start shooting. Which ended up with him getting et. I guess that's the kind of shoddy worksmanship that they teach at Bad Guy School.

And that was potentially the best CG explosion I've ever seen. For some reason, the siding of the building just randomly disappeared. And then there was some exploding. And then the frame of the building fell over. In basically one piece. Or at least the front of the building.

And then there was an ominous shot of underwater. With no sharks or anything. I don't really understand why they showed that. And in other news, apparently Firefox does not believe that udnerstand is a misspelled word.
