Trivia
Shout Factory announced that the film would be released on a double feature with another movie in 2015, but canceled it to avoid legal issues, as the film contains stock footage from Jaws (1975) and Jaws 2 (1978). See more »Goofs
The size and breed of the shark changes throughout the course of the film. At one point, it's a tiger shark, then it's a massive great white. See more »

Cruel Jaws (1995)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Italian director Bruno Mattai is probably known for being the biggest hack of the past thirty years. He made a name for himself by creating some really strange horror films that borrowed music scores, scenes and direct dialogue from whatever movie he was ripping. His most famous film, Hell of the Living Dead was a rip of Romero's Dawn of the Dead and with this film he goes after Jaws. A tiger shark, created by the Navy to kill our enemies, is loose in the ocean and killing everyone. The (sound familiar) nice sheriff wants to close the beaches but the Mayor doesn't want to lose the summer money. People get eaten. I've seen quite a few Italian rips of the Spielberg film and this one here is one of the best actually but there's also the classic Mattai moments where he rips off scenes and dialogue. All four Jaws films have scenes and dialogue redone here and I even noticed some dialogue from Porky's. The attack scenes are done very well even though it's obvious that the shark isn't real. The film drags on a bit too long at 97 minutes but if you don't mind cheese then you might enjoy this.
