Most popular Shark Movies (and where to watch them)

There are many shark movies that have been created over the years, with different takes on these creatures of the deep. One of the earliest shark movies was Jaws, released in 1975 and directed by Steven Spielberg. This movie spawned a whole genre of shark films and helped to cement the image of the shark as a deadly predator. In more recent years, films such as Sharknado and The Shallows have taken audiences by storm, with their over-the-top shark attacks and campy humor.
