5-Headed Shark Attack Trailers

A beautiful island is home to thousands of species of aquatic life. Now there is a new species: the 5-Headed Shark is all heads and teeth. Shaped like a demented starfish, this monster terrorizes the open ocean before invading the beaches of Puerto Rico, endangering the once peaceful island paradise.

5 HEADED SHARK ATTACK is the third in The Asylum's series about multi-headed sharks wreaking havoc on unsuspecting coast dwellers; this follows on from the two headed and three-headed variants (although a four-headed shark was bizarrely missed out). The film very much copies the look and feel of PIRANHA 3D throughout, chock-full of bikini-clad bimbos and dumb jocks having fun before they get chomped on by the mutant menace. Being an Asylum film, the CGI effects are cheesy beyond belief and the whole film lacks in realism. The acting ranges from the godawfully wooden to the just-about-managing, while the plot drags together all the usual genre tropes and cliches, from the fame-hungry human villain to the escalating attacks. Only B-movie lovers will enjoy this one.

Never seen a movie like this. Everything is so bad that it's actually is fun to watch. I believe my kids could had made a better movie.

I've seen some reviews that give this a 10/10 or say that this is the scariest thing they have seen (scarier than "Silence of the Lambs" or "The Shining" - WTactualF?!?!?! - They must have been paid to write the rubbish!The title should give you an indication that this is not a super epic or realistic film, and on that it clearly delivers. A typical SyFy film with over the top CGI, bad acting, poor story and impossible feats of reality and nonsense. As the title suggests, a mutated aquatic predator is on the loose. It's up to the local coast guard and scientists from a Puerto Rican Aquarium to stop it before the kill count rises. Along the way you'll get the usual, and expected pointless deaths and tongue in cheek dialogue delivered in an all too camp way. A follow-up to "3 Headed Shark Attack" which won't ruin your cinema/TV movie experience if you miss it and don't bother. If you are a fan of tacky shark based films you'd probably be better looking at "Sharknado". I knew what to expect before watching this and still it failed to deliver any real enjoyment, just anther SyFy Shark film jumping on the bandwagon of an over populated shark infested water of films. I won't leave spoilers, I'll save them for the Goofs section instead because there were loads of mistakes throughout, but FTR the shark does have 5 heads, it just isn't apparent till half way through because of bad editing, or because the production team only decided to add a fifth 5th head halfway through editing FFS. 2 out of 10 and that's being generous!!

Appearing off the Puerto Rican coast, a team of biologists from a struggling local aquarium set out to capture a multiple-headed shark mutation in the area, only for the creature to prove far harder to kill than expected and puts them in grave danger in order to finally kill it.This was once again another outstanding effort in the series. One of the better elements found here is the usual motif of the series of letting this one play around so gleefully with the absurdity of the premise. This one really takes great length to utilize the fact that the creatures' sheer implausibility to exist provides this one with plenty of outstanding action scenes that bring about the multiple heads into play. The opening attack on the photo-shoot on the boat where each head is able to take out one of the participants, the groups' first encounter with the shark that proves them completely out of their element as it just launches the attack out of nowhere and the later sequence of it taking over the fishing boat with utter ease where each of the heads takes out drowning crew-members shows off the shark in its element. The other attacks found in here, from the crew's second attempt to catch it that brings them into contact with the tourist boat that takes out another crew-member to the gloriously cheesy ambush of the surfers at the beach-front competition as well as the rather fun way it wrecks the team's plans to contain it out on the open water that features attacks on each boat leading up to the spectacular confrontations against the group's main plan of defense makes this really fun and enjoyable with the fast-paced action as well as the utilization of the creatures' many heads. Since this one plays with deformity angle, the shots of the creature's multiple heads each chewing on the floating pieces in its path give this a really cheesy angle that is quite fun with all the different attacks. Alongside the rather fun tactic to finally finish off the shark, these here all hold this up over the few minor flaws to be had. One of the problematic areas here is the subplot here involving the utterly moronic executive trying to capture the shark alive at all costs, for this person's stupidity simply to get that creature is utterly unbelievable in the real world. The way he appears utterly determined to put them at risk for the sake of simply getting it alive points out how reprehensible his mindset becomes the more they listen to him, and although it does try to rectify the situation the problem is still there in the first half. Likewise, the fact that the CGI is just utterly terrible and doesn't really have any sense of realism is an issue here especially when it comes to the execution of scenes that are usually practical shots. Otherwise, there's not much really wrong here.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Language.
