Good point, but I didn't pay anywhere near £25 for Indicator's Hammer releases if you divided the boxsets down to individual titles and you can get them as individual releases now at 3 for £20 and they are loaded with extras.

I think they could have given us at least an audio commentary with Jonathan Rigby and the price point wouldn't have changed by that much.

Why have Rigby when you can get Ellinger?

nothing against Ellinger once I got used to her accent. She's very strong on Gothic literary influences - it'll be interesting to see her join the dots with this being a Hong Kong co-production and a bit removed from traditional English gothic...

...but I do like a bit of Rigby on a Hammer release. Ah well, at least it's a UK release... I wonder who they licensed it from? I thought it was a Warner title in the UK?

So looking at that pic, is Shark a pg or an 18?

I mean I'm aware shark isn't a jaws knockoff (oh god if only, a 18 rated carnivorous fish film starring burt Reynolds in his prime).

But which rating does it justify?

It's PG according to BBFC, that rating was from 2003.

a PG it's like the deep but before the deep but the deep is ten times better than shark which is quite dull.

I watched a documentary about shark films on Shudder, I believe that Shark! features the death of a stunt man in the final edit of the film!

And I believe the stuntman's death was used by the production company to promote the film and the director quit and wanted nothing to do with the film.
