Review of Sharkula

Sharkula (2022)
7/10
Hilariously awful
25 January 2023
This is another movie that I have to give two different ratings.

As something for the general movie viewer to watch, this thing is complete and utter garbage. It looks like crap. The story is incoherent nonsense. The acting is terrible. The effects are unbelievable in the sense that it's hard to believe that they actually put that in a movie. The sound quality is awful. It's really bad.

For fans of B movies, this movie is hilarious. It opens with Dracula being chased by a torch and pitchfork wielding mob of around 5 people through a field. I think this scene is supposed to take place at night but I'm honestly not sure. Dracula is chased into the ocean and runs into a terrible CGI shark which he bites. Then it cuts to a couple of goobers getting a Summer job in Lovecaft-reference-ville or something. Then the story starts I guess. Whatever is supposed to be going on begins. The monster is the front end of a rubber shark with some wings from a cheap rubber bat stuck on the back hanging from some fishing wire or some red eyes awkwardly photoshopped on to water. It's both hilarious and ridiculous. Occasionally, they cut to a series of images that have nothing to do with anything. First they cut to some guy in vampire makeup who is not in the movie. Then they cut to some other guy in different vampire makeup who is also not in the movie. Then they cut to some really nice looking footage of this really hot fire dancers strutting around on the beach at sunset. This is by far the best looking part of the movie and they definitely didn't film it. She doesn't actually do any fire dancing though. She just sort of struts around and spins her fire things a little. That will give you an idea of how bonkers and incoherent this is.
