RELEASED TO VIDEO IN 2005 and directed by Danny Lerner, "Raging Sharks" concerns an extraterrestrial object that crash-lands in the Bermuda Triangle, which releases an alien substance that causes sharks to go crazy and attack an oceanic observatory station, beach goers and anyone else nearby. Corin Nemec plays the leader of the station and Vanessa Angel his wife, who runs the station in his absence. Corbin Bernsen appears as a wise sub commander and Todd Jensen a dubious government agent.This ain't your typical "Jaws"-copy shark flick; the plot's way more ambitious. In fact, there's well over two hours of material here crammed into an hour and a half. The production quality is akin to the usual Syfy fare but with a lot of cussing, which shows that it was released to video rather than TV.The creators must've been targeting 12-14 year-old boys because there's zero character development or suspense build-up. Something "exciting" happens every couple minutes, whether a shark attack, an explosion, a compartment flooded, someone getting knifed, shot, drowned, etc. Despite the continuous "thrilling" events to appease those with ADHD the first hour is relatively boring with zero artistic tact. Imagine if Conan the Barbarian knew how to play guitar and crudely tried to play the moving classic "Stairway to Heaven." That's a good description of this movie as it freely borrows from several sci-fi and shark films to barbarically fashion its own adolescent action flick.Thankfully, the last act finally delivers some genuine excitement and suspense, which is the main reason my grade is as high as it is. Plus Elise Muller as "Vera" is showcased effectively in a couple of scenes, but they could've done a lot better considering the female resources at their disposal. So, this is a bad movie, but the final act is impressively kinetic and entertaining, as far as action-oriented sci-fi goes. Too bad it's such a challenge to make it that far.THE MOVIE RUNS 93 minutes and was shot in Sofia, Bulgaria. WRITER: Les Weldon.GRADE: C

Geez! Unfortunately, I didn't connect to the IMDb to check on this before we went to the video store, these sharks (and their lousy producers and cast) chew away $4.00 from me. As it happens very often in a bad movie case, I found myself making fun of the movie and wondering how in the world there are not authorities to prevent these disasters from even getting to innocent hands like ours. My poor daughter was hoping for a "Deep Blue Sea", and she got the "Deep Goo Sh**".The people commenting here about this movie are so right about the spoofs they found out, that I wont repeat them. But it chocked me mysteriously that when the female star decided to go "to help" the poor people that were actually being eaten by the sharks outside, the producer magically omitted the at least half and hour or more that takes to change into a diving suit. Who she thought she was? Superman, that changes inside a phone booth in an instant??? Oh wait...there are no phone booths undersea!...Oh well.If you are in a bank account suicidal drill or just love Animal Planet (and I'm not referring only to the sharks), don't let us commenters stop you...go ahead and rent it... Don't say we didn't warn you.

This movie was a hoot! Bad stock footage, bad acting, bad story, just plain bad. Lots of opportunities for a laugh. I don't think they meant it to be a comedy, however. I especially enjoyed (was highly amused is a better term) the growling sharks. They appeared to be great whites in several shots, but sounded like 'tigers' (g). The acting was rather wooden which contributes to the overall poor production.Basically, an alien space accident results in a module being cast into the ocean. A few years later, a portable lab is positioned close to the module, which we later find out triggered a signal into space. This apparently causes the sharks to go into protect mode and they begin killing off anyone coming close. The module contains a material which, when mixed with something (Deuterium?) produces cold fusion. The government (or military/special ops) knew about the module (how?) but had not been able to locate it until the lab stumbled upon it, thus setting off the signal (how was the signal detected?). Various action scenes ensue with many people being eaten (no truly great footage here, only a couple of good shots. One such shot of reporters falling into the water after their 25+ foot boat is attacked and sunk by a (as in one) 'raging' shark. The shark chows down and we see a camera with an arm from the elbow down still holding on.).Many things to criticize. Ten minutes of oxygen left in the lab turns into several minutes of chase/fight scenes with fires blazing everywhere. The starring couple (Vanessa Angel looking rather pouty with her botox-laden lips) starving for oxygen at the end while sitting in a diving prep room full of tanks (and them in wet suits). The lab disintegrating at the end and yet the couple miraculously appearing in full scuba regalia and surviving the accent (several hundred feet in seconds?!?!). Many, many other such inconsistencies.If you can maintain a sense of humor throughout it's a fun movie, however poorly acted/scripted. If continuity issues bother you I wouldn't recommend this movie.2 of 10 - above a 1 only because I like Vanessa Angel, though not one of her better films.

I've seen this movie,and i said to my self after about 45 min in to the movie,what is this i'm watching?. It felt like watching discovery channel. The acting was bad and it seems like it was made on a low budget... The acting felt like they wore reading to each other. You can actually see that the sharks clips they are using in this movie actually comes from different documentaries. Well that's all i can say about this movie that it is a waste of time. There are a good movies & bad movies this one is a bad....Well you can listen to the other comment but in the end you will see that i have truly said what kind of movie this is.
