Just a few days ago, we celebrated the birthday of 42-year-old JAWS, the greatest movie of all time. (Not up for debate.) We also recently took a look at every kill in the JAWS franchise; those sharks were hungry and racked up quite a bill. So in keeping with the toothy theme, we’re going to revisit what is considered the worst film in the franchise. Actually, it’s often in the conversation when it comes to worst movies of all time. Let’s take a fresh peek at JAWS: THE REVENGE.
Having recently made honorable cases for ROBOCOP 2 and ALIEN: RESURRECTION, our champion of under-appreciated sequels Lance Vlcek is here to make a case for the fourth JAWS film, which was released on July 17, 1987. (Mere months after it was actually filmed!) 30 years on, the Joseph Sargent movie is still mocked and derided with great enthusiasm by most, but Lance has a different perspective. Does he illustrate some good points and give THE REVENGE a new lease on life? We’ll leave that for you to find out!
