Trailer Park Shark (2017 TV Movie)
8/10
Give it a chance. You will laugh out loud. Captivating in a Cheesy way.

Yes, it is obvious that the shark effects are cheesy, and more like a video game, but the directors knew that, and that's what captivates the viewer, much like a "Godzilla" movie does, and it gives it the flavor. The studio effect rainwater following the Jet Ski rider is already embedded in my laugh track. My girlfriend, and I started watching it, just for the funny Redneck factor, much like seeing a train wreck, but before we knew it, we were laughing out loud, very hard with some of those scenes, and excellent one liners. "...like a Motherless goat", taken from 3 Amigos. It fit perfectly. There are too many to remember. There is a solid, simple but effective plot. The actors all were surprisingly very good, each skilled in their own right. The lead actor brought some normalcy to the role, knowing he was less of a Redneck, but was embracing his lowlife status. A convincing hero in the movie. They played their Redneck roles extremely well. (I'm from Texas). The actors actually sold the movie, given the B movie budget, and made it almost believable in some quirky way. It was a surprising treat recognizing a very intimidating Mr. Belding (Dennis Haskins) from tv's "Saved by the Bell". We watched it all, and the movie held our attention every redneck second. We couldn't wait for the commercials to end, just to see what was going to happen next. Several times we even shamefully jumped, like one would in a Wes Craven movie. Grab yourself a Lone Star Beer, frozen Daiquiri, or wine, and Watch this Movie. It deserves Cult classic status.
