Jaws 2

1978

USA

Jeannot Szwarc Director
	Universal Pictures Production Company

A monster-sized Carcharodon carcharias returns to the shores of Amity to once again terrorise its residents, and once again the Chief of Police (Scheider reprising his role) is called upon to sort the problem.
A watchable movie, it has its genuine moments of scares, but if you saw the first movie then you kind of know what to expect here. ~ LH.

Bargain three disc set with ALL the fish-with-pointy-teeth sequel films in it! Tempting. Pity all of them are so awful. This one has the best tagline: "Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water...". Roy Scheider looks mortified thoughout. ~ WS.
