MAKO: THE JAWS OF DEATH is a cheap shark-based horror flick rushed out in the wake of JAWS. Seen today the picture quality is appalling and the whole thing has an amateurish feel which saps life and interest from the production. The story sees a washed-up Richard Jaeckel playing a loner with a psychic connection to his shark buddies (yes, really). Some antagonists show up and Jaeckel and his buddies facilitate a feeding frenzy. This is a mish-mash of wooden performances, bad scripting, wasted actors (hi, Harold Sakata!) and the usual murky underwater footage that's so poor it's tough to see what's going on.
