A 2016 Made-for-TV Movie that has a town dealing with dangerous sharks who use dead human bodies as dams after a particularly violent storm.
The movie stars Jason London, Jessica Blackmore, Robert Craighead, Matt Mercer, Kabby Borders, Saxon Jones, and Frnacis Gonzalez.
It aired on July 25, 2016 on Syfy.
Tropes for the film:
- Gas-Cylinder Rocket: The heroes launch a couple of gas cylinders into the shark-built corpse dam by chopping off their nozzles with axes. The cylinders blast off and streak through the air to lodge themselves in the dam, yet somehow still have enough pressure left to explode and destroy it.
- Monstrous Cannibalism: After the first dam explodes, an underwater shot shows several of the bull sharks reacting to blood in the water. One bumps sideways into a smaller shark, grabs it, shakes it until it goes limp, and swims off chewing on the carcass.
- Tagline: "These maneaters really give a dam!".
- Threatening Shark: A ferocious coastal storm sweeps several dozen bull sharks far upstream into a wildlife park, where for some reason they start emulating beavers by both hunting as a pack and building dams made up of equal parts floating logs and body parts from their kills as a combination of water trap and food locker. The fact that this kind of behavior has no precedent in reality is actually lampshades, but the film never explains it.
