YMMV / Shark Attack 3: Megalodon

Go To

  • Ho Yay: When we're first introduced to Ben Carpenter and his buddies, though that could be a mere Call-Back to one of his other roles until this line:
    Esai: Why do I let you convince me to do these things?
    Carpenter: Cause you're my bitch.
  • Memetic Mutation: "The Line".
  • Narm: Oh god, so much narm. Mostly in the form of bad acting and bad line-delivery. But Special Effects Failure helps, too.
    • The scene where the titular shark attacks a yacht, where the filmmakers show just how versatile stock footage can be.
    • Bad acting of the Dull Surprise kind is justified in one scene where it's revealed the characters are smoking dope.
  • Narm Charm: One of those movies you don't watch to analyze its parallelisms to Citizen Kane but out of sheer Bile Fascination. Tellingly, the phrase, "What do you say I take you home and eat your pussy?" quickly became the Signature Line of the movie.
  • Sequel Displacement: By far the most well known of the Shark Attack movies. Shark Attack 2 doesn't even have a page on this wiki.
  • Signature Line: "What do you say I take you home and eat your pussy?" To the point that among "fans" of the movie it's nicknamed simply as "The Line".
  • So Bad, It's Good: A charmingly awful piece of film.
  • Special Effects Failure: ALL of the movie.
    • And prior to Momma Meg showing up, the cast was menaced by the same shot of an ordinary great white swimming. Just swimming. Not even eating people. Just swimming.
