Considered one of the greatest films of all time, 'Jaws' is the first modern summer blockbuster, helping to revive Hollywood and define the business model for the industry.

A production with a budget as low as its level of seriousness, released in 2013 on the SyFy television channel. Sharknado is the perfect example of a B-movie exploitation: an absurd plot, which takes nothing seriously, as a pretext for the wildest, funniest and most exaggerated sequences of gratuitous violence. There's nothing else to say: a tornado throwing thousands of sharks over a city, and the battle of the locals to survive this ridiculous wave of violence. It delivers the promised fun.

A claustrophobic horror, in which two sisters dive into the ocean in a cage to observe sharks - and end up trapped there, threatened by hungry animals. Part of the subgenre called "survival horror", proving that even after decades since the release of 'Jaws', these marine animals can still be very scary. The cast features Mandy Moore (the voice of Rapunzel in 'Tangled') and Claire Holt (from the series 'The Originals'). For fans of horror and suspense, it's certainly a breath-taking movie.
