Most Ludicrous Premise
Eldritch Resurrection Rune Cave
The rednecks wound the great white nigh unto death...and it dies in a handy-dandy magical rune cave that unleashes its vengeful spirit!

Worst Special Effect
Vibrating Sharksplosion
Probably the best sampling of the horrible CGI this movie offers. Shark coming. Gets stabbed. Vibrates. Explodes. Even they don't buy it. Shark not dead, but eats Bull-from-Night-Court's fingers.

Drinking the Shark
Here's a story to tell around the water cooler. The clerk has a splitting headache and goes to get a drink. Now, I know we're supposed to believe that the Ghost Shark can manifest in ANY amount of water...but this was just a bit too hard to swallow.

Deus Ex Machina
Deus Ex Marina
First, Cicely fails to notice the telltale bright blue glow...twice. Then, she's attacked and swallowed...only to be spit back out with just a little cut on her leg. The only character to survive a direct attack from Ghost Shark. Maybe she tastes bad? No explanation.

Smithee Award Winner! Worst Picture
Plumber, Slip-n-Slide, and Car Wash
Great montage of awesome kills -- perfect for a Worst Pic clip!

Directors
Director Claim to Fame
Griff Furst Probably known best as the handsome, slightly- squinty, high-foreheaded actor who was Phillips in The Magnificent Seven (2016 version). But also the director of many an aquatic-creature flick: Lake Placid 3, Swamp Shark, Trailer Park Shark, uh... Nightmare Shark...I think there's a theme here.
