Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus



Every now and again, there's more entertainment to be found taking the piss out of a movie, than watching an average movie (take note FOX execs). And lo, Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus is born.

It is, of course, awful. Terribly written using a continent load of cliches in the dialogue, as well as statically and unimaginatively directed...all by a bloke called Ace, who has no idea what he's doing. Special mention to Lorenzo Lamas who goes straight in to my Top 10 Worst Actors Ever list, due to his ill-judged scenery chewing.

However, its much more interesting than any other Asylum studio production and, while terrible, at least it doesn't make you as angry as X-men Origins: Wolverine.

Worth checking out for the sequence where Mega Shark attacks a passenger airliner flying at altitude. Why and how does Mega Shark do this? Who knows. Just be thankful the scene exists at all.
