Stacey’s visceral reaction proves that Spielberg’s mastery of primal fear remains potent even when stripped of academic pretense. It is a refreshing reminder that great cinema communicates through universal dread rather than just technical expertise.

I'm Never Swimming in the Ocean Again!!! First Time Watching Jaws (1975) | REACTION & REVIEWAdded:
Hello and welcome back to my channel. My name is Stacy and I'm so happy to see you here today. We're going to be watching the first Jaws movie. I know that there are a bunch of Jaws movies out there, but I've never seen a single one of them. Although, I do know Jaws is about a shark attacking people and killing people and all that jazz. I've never watched a Jaws movie or anything like that. I've actually been on a ride, I think, at Universal Studios or something like that. I'm not even sure.
I remember going on a Jaws ride and actually being terrified of the giant shark that was in the water, the animatronic and everything. Uh, but yeah, that's like the extent of my experience with this franchise. But I'm excited to finally watch this movie today, especially because you guys have been recommending this movie for the longest time, especially since I recently watched Back to the Future. And I believe in the second movie there was a little uh tidbit about Jaws and it was like Jaws 19 or something. [laughter] It was super funny and a lot of people said that it's definitely worth watching. So that's exactly what we're going to be doing today. So just a little disclaimer before we begin. I am not a film buff. I don't know anything about making movies, the movie process, screenwriting, nothing like that. I am not a film making professional expert, nothing like that. I'm just here to watch uh movies I've never seen before and give my first time reaction and experience it with you guys. And if you guys are interested in watching my full reaction to this movie along with all the other movies I have seen on this channel, please check out the link in the description box to my Patreon. I also go live three days a week on Twitch. So, if you want to catch me live there, please check out the links in the description box to that.
And on top of that, I also have two other YouTube channels. So, if you're interested in watching some gaming content or some music reaction content, also check out the links in the description box to that. All righty, you guys. As usual, grab your drink, grab your popcorn, and let's get started with Jaws. I feel like I've been on a Stephen Spielberg movie run. just did all of Back to the Future and Jaws. Did he do Shaw Shank? He did Schindler's List, which I also just watched. I'm pretty sure he did Schindler's List. I feel like I've just been watching all Steven Spielberg movies recently. So, [gasps] here we are with another one.
Oh, this iconic score.
It actually is very terrifying.
Might have to It's so chilling.
Feels like something's watching you.
This This music is really iconic, though. So, I'll be super surprised if YouTube lets me share it on the platform.
Terrifying.
>> Oh, this is based on a novel.
Oh.
did not know this was a book. It surprises me how often most movies are from the stories are from books and they adapt the story into a movie. I feel like that happens so often and I just have no clue until they say it on screen. It's crazy.
>> That actually looks like a lot of fun.
And a bonfire on the beach. Count me in.
>> Chrissy, >> where are we going?
>> Swimming.
>> Swimming at night. Hell no.
[gasps] No thanks.
>> I'm coming.
I'm definitely coming.
>> I'm definitely coming. Oh.
It does look very peaceful, but wow, she is far out there.
Oh, she is talented. Oh no, she is a very beautiful swimmer. But damn, we all know what's coming.
God, damn. We're already getting a shark attack right at the beginning of the movie. Oh my god. Oh my god. Girly.
Oh [ __ ] Oh no.
>> He's just passed out.
>> Oh no. [screaming] GOD.
>> Then silence.
Oh [ __ ] [ __ ] terrifying.
Just like she was never there. Oh my god. Hell no.
>> They must be in the backyard.
>> Inity. You say yad.
>> Yad.
>> They're in the yard. Not too far from the car.
Nailed it. They've been practicing.
>> Be careful, will you? In this town. Hey, >> what a That's the coolest police car I've ever seen.
>> Or I guess the uh most charming police car I've ever seen.
How fun.
50th annual regata.
>> You here for the summer?
>> Come on.
>> Oh no. Did they find something from her?
Oh, he looks like he's going to be sick.
I'm surprised there's any any trace left of her.
This is going to make me terrified to go swimming in the water.
>> Oh Jesus.
>> Oh my god.
>> Ew. Well, it didn't eat her hand. I've already been terrified of the ocean, but this is not going to help me. [laughter] This is not going to help my ocean fear.
>> Seems that the 9year-olds from the school have been karate the picket fences. karateing the picket fences.
>> Yeah.
[snorts] >> Shark attack.
Damn.
>> Back in front of my store.
>> Just have him fill out the form.
>> Wow.
This is such a cool little town and place. H I love how charming the uh northeast US is. So beautiful.
I've like driven through Cape Cod and like some coastal towns and Rhode Island and things like that, but never really stayed too much in that area. Also a little bit of in Maine. So beautiful.
>> Oh no, >> there's a bunch of boy scouts out in April day doing their mile swim for their merit badges.
>> Oh no, >> there's no phones out there. Surely the shark can't attack all of them.
>> Oh gosh.
>> Is that the politician?
Let me guess. This is a politician and he's going to be like, "No, this is the 50th anniversary or whatever the hell.
We got to keep the beaches open because it will disappoint so many people that um came here and are ready to vacation here and blah blah blah." He's not going to care. He's going to keep the beach open and there's going to be more shark attacks. Oh no.
anxious that you're uh you're ushinging into something serious.
>> Here we go.
>> That doesn't mean we have to serve them up a smorggas board.
>> I've never had that kind of trouble in these waters.
>> Well, what else could have done that to that girl? Boat propeller.
>> Boat propeller.
>> That's not what you told me over the phone.
>> I was wrong.
>> We'll have to amend our reports.
>> You'll stand by that.
>> I'll stand by you.
>> The corruption.
>> You yelled shark.
We've got a panic on our hands on the 4th of July.
>> Yeah, but like I I feel like this guy is risking the celebrations or just summer vacations in the future for this town. I feel like if the town has a reputation of shark attacks and people continue to die and get attacked and all sorts of things, like people are just not going to vacation there for the foreseeable future. So, it's like I feel like he's a bit shortsighted from the mayor, I think. A typical politician just caring about the money and not other people's safety. Truly, >> but I must say that beach does look very beautiful.
>> Never. You're not born here. You're not an island. That's it.
>> Oh my god. Dog, please do not be attacked.
>> Child, do not be attacked either. Oh my gosh, lady, don't be attacked either. She's just enjoying her time, being all peaceful. Oh my god, I'm nervous. I'm so nervous.
I can't get down to the office [screaming] and that garbage truck next to the office has got to be >> Oh my god. I'm [snorts] My anxiety my anxiety cannot handle this.
>> Chief Brody, you are uptight. Relax.
Come on.
>> I know. It's so crazy. At the beach, you're supposed to relax and chill out, but like I'm on edge.
>> Do they not have any lifeguards to watch over?
>> Oh no, [gasps] the dog. Stop it. Are you serious?
The dog is gone. Gh.
No.
Oh no. This shark is crazy.
>> Did you see that?
>> Holy [ __ ] Stop it.
Oh my god.
I mean, if the dog got eaten, wouldn't you see the blood in the water? Also, that child.
>> Oh no, >> Alex.
Oh my. That That is actually horrific.
Dude, >> they actually like went there with a child dying. They actually went there.
We actually saw a child getting eaten by a shark on in this movie. They went there.
I mean, I feel like this is just me, you guys, but I feel like when it comes to cinema, I feel like children a lot of the times can be pretty invincible depending on the circumstances of the movie that you're watching. I feel like um some of the time I feel like they can get off scot-free.
Typically, you don't really see many children dying in a movie, especially in a horrific way like this. Oo, they went there. They went there. I mean, I know that there are some movies I have seen where like kids die in really horrible ways in a movie, but like that was I don't think I've ever seen a kid get eaten by a shark before.
It's terrible.
[sighs] So, two shark attacks, actually three shark attacks in less than 20 minutes in this movie.
We got the child. We got the woman. We got the dog.
>> How many more?
>> We're going to put on the summer the extra summer deputies as soon as possible and then we're going to try and use shark spotters on the beach.
>> Are you going to close the beaches?
>> Do you have to close the whole beach or can you just close the water?
Can't you like keep the beaches open but just make make it so people don't go in the water? Can you just do that instead of closing the beaches down completely and just make sure people don't step a single foot into the water? I feel like that's okay.
>> Only 24 hours.
>> I didn't agree to that.
>> Only 24 hours.
>> Wow. These people don't give a [ __ ] Sweet. Love that sound in my ear.
>> Know how I earn a living?
I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't going to be easy.
>> Bird, >> I value my neck a lot more than 3,000 bucks, chief. I find him for three, but I'll catch him and kill him for 10.
>> Damn, that's a lot of money. $10,000 for me by myself. For that, you get the head, the tail, the whole damn thing.
>> Wow, he's very confident.
Oh, that's a cute puffer. It's a really cute doggy.
>> Want to get drunk and fool around?
[clears throat] >> Oh, yeah. [laughter] >> Romantic.
>> Uhoh.
>> He's in the water.
sitting in the boat.
>> Oh my gosh.
>> He's not going to go in the water. I don't think he'll ever go in the water again after what happened yesterday.
>> Oh my god.
>> What if he falls over, lady? And then what? It's >> the rules, you know, before he goes out on his own.
>> Michael, did you hear your father out of the water now? [laughter] >> She changed her tune fast.
>> Don't worry, the chief lives on the other side of the island. Am I coming in straight?
>> Uhoh. Are these guys going to get attacked, too? Stop it.
This shark is crazy. What is up with him?
No, for real. Why is the shark so aggressive?
Hope we get answers to that.
I feel like this movie probably made people absolutely hate sharks and actually probably made them so like just terrified of sharks.
But I feel like we always hear about shark attacks in the news and yeah, it's actually I feel like more common than we think.
>> Oh no.
Oh, he gone.
[ __ ] Oh no. Oh.
Oh, no. He's going back.
>> Charlie, take my word for it. Don't look back.
>> Why would you even tell him that?
>> Oh my god. Come on, Charlie. You could swim freaking faster than that. Come on, dude.
>> Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
>> Close call.
Dude, this shark is ready to eat anything and anybody that goes into his waters.
It's crazy, you know? I wonder if this movie was based off of like a true story of a shark that just kept attacking people and kept killing people. I wonder if that I wonder if that happened. Really?
>> Can you tell me if there's a good restaurant or hotel on the island? Now you walk straight ahead. [laughter] >> They're all going to die.
>> Gee, they're all going to die.
>> That is a tiny boat for all those guys.
>> Who are you?
>> Matt Hooper. I'm from the Oceanographic Institute.
>> Nice.
>> See the remains of the first victim, the girl on the beach.
>> Okay, fine. Just bear with me, will you?
Sure. Thanks.
>> He wants to see the first victim.
It's not going to be pretty.
>> What's the matter with you? Want to swapish and crazy son of a [ __ ] Oh my god, the dogs on there.
>> What the hell?
>> This looks like a circus.
>> The victim can only be estimated from the partial remaining [sighs] >> with massive tissue loss in the upper musculature.
>> I'm seriously surprised there's anything left of her. Frenzy feeding of a large squalas, possibly Anjammanis or [snorts] Assurus Gauus. Now, >> what?
>> However, the attacking squalas must be considerably larger than any normal squalas found in these waters.
>> Squalus.
>> It was a shark.
>> Oh my god.
What the hell?
>> Shot I want with everybody and the fish in it. Okay, GUYS. CAN WE PLEASE GET ORGANIZED?
>> He's like, "No, that's not it." Way too small.
I need A PICTURE FOR THE PAPER. WE GET >> This is so chaotic.
>> This guy knows it's not it either. It's like, look at these clowns.
>> Got a deep throat prank.
>> Yeah, but what kind? What kind of shark?
>> It's a tiger shark.
>> Those are dangerous, aren't they? Tiger sharks are super aggressive, aren't they?
>> There are all kinds of sharks in the waters. You know, hammerheads, white tips, blues, makos, and the chances that these bozos got the Bozo in these waters.
>> It's 100 to one. 100 to one.
>> Oh wow.
>> Is that the bite radius on this animal is different than the wounds on the victim.
>> Uhoh.
>> Let's cut it open. Whatever it's eaten in the last 24 hours is bound to still be in there and then we'll be sure.
>> Do it. Dang. So that's kind of crazy.
they got like obviously this is not the shark that they've been wanting to hunt but like it's kind of crazy how all of a sudden he makes it seem like this shark the tiger shark is actually it doesn't usually come up to this these waters typically so I wonder if this is just like a crazy abnormal summer of [snorts] like different sharks showing up to this specific area I don't know I'm just thinking out loud here But hm, just the fact that all of these shark attacks just keep happening at once is just I don't know, just one right after the other.
It's actually so terrifying. I I wouldn't go into the water if I was living there. I wouldn't go into that water for like 5 years. Truly.
[gasps and laughter] >> And I am not going to stand here and see that thing cut open and see that little Ker voice spell out all over the dock.
Yeah, I was about to say if they wanted to see the remains of anybody or what was in someone's what was in that shark's guts, it would be the child that he ate.
Oh, I can't get over that death. That was so awful.
A >> she Frodie.
>> Yes.
>> A what the hell?
>> That a girl got killed here last week and you knew it. Uhoh.
>> You knew there was a shark out there.
>> Girls, sue him. Sue him.
>> But still, my boy is dead now, and there's nothing you can do about it.
>> Couldn't she sue if she wanted to? I would sue the [ __ ] out of him.
>> I'm sorry, Martin. She's wrong.
>> No, she's not.
>> I wonder how she found out.
>> [snorts] >> Oh, he's drinking his little glass of milk.
[laughter] Such a cute kid.
>> Give us a kiss.
>> Why?
>> Give us a kiss.
>> Cuz I need it. Oh, cute little moment.
>> Your husband's home?
>> Yes.
>> I'd really like to talk to him.
>> Uh, yes. So would I.
>> So would I.
>> How was your day?
>> That's a good question to ask.
>> Is anyone eating this?
>> No.
>> What?
That's kind of funny. My husband tells me you're in sharks.
[sighs and gasps] >> He's in sharks.
>> I love them. When I was 12 years old, my father got me this boat and I went fishing off the Cape Cod.
>> Brody's like, I need a freaking drink.
>> Might do have to tell him that. Sorry.
>> I'm sorry. I thought that you told me the shark was caught.
>> Uh-oh.
>> Probably not the shark that killed the little boy, which I wanted to prove today by cutting the shark open. But you you know, you want to let that breathe for nothing. Oh my gosh, look how much wine he's pouring. Is that wine or grape juice? Kind of looks like grape juice.
Some wine actually sounds really good right now.
>> There's a clinical name for it, isn't there?
>> Drowning.
>> Drowning.
My god, he almost drowned.
>> It's called territoriality. It's just theory that I happen to agree with.
>> Territoriality is I wonder how a shark becomes rogue, though.
Are they usually in packs though? I didn't think they were. I thought all sharks were pretty much alone just swimming. I don't know anything about sharks. I'm not one to be like I guess giving my thoughts about it, but I I didn't think that they were in packs or anything like that. So, that's interesting.
>> Then why don't we have one more drink and go down and cut that shark open?
>> It's a great idea.
>> Can you do that?
It's an investigation.
>> I can do anything. I'm the chief of police.
>> Like, wouldn't they want to be sure it is the shark or they just kind of want to put a band-aid over the problem? And when I say they, I mean the government of the local the local jurisdiction and everything. Poor innocent shark though, to be honest. That's kind of awful.
Ew.
Homeboy should have put a mask on.
>> Came up in the Gulf Stream from Southern Waters.
>> Louisiana.
>> That's it.
Got to close the beach. Call the mayor.
>> They didn't get the shark.
>> You still got a hell of a fish out there with a mouth about this big.
>> I cannot imagine dying to a shark and being eaten by a shark. boat. Yes, you are. No, I'm not. Yes, you are. You can't do that. Yes, you can.
>> We're going to find the shark on land.
But when it comes to the theory of a territoriality, if you just stay off of the beach for say a month or two, like you close the beach, then wouldn't the shark eventually go away to find a better feeding ground? Because territoriality is, you know, they're feeding on a certain area till the food supply runs out. So, can you make the shark believe that the food supply ran out by just, I guess, banning people from going in the water? Obviously, the he can't just do that because there are hurdles with the local government. But I was just thinking like, you know, if the government were, you know, okay with that, just banning people from going in the water, would the shark eventually move on? I guess it would have to. It has to eat something.
I wonder how long it would uh it would take, though. Also, the shark has a particular taste for humans.
>> You want a pretzel?
>> Want a pretzel?
>> You get a ratio on this thing?
>> You know, it's a [laughter] closed circuit TV system. I have underwater cameras. Four and a half. Doesn't make much sense for a guy who hates the water to live on an island either.
>> It's only an island if you water.
>> That makes a lot of sense. [laughter] >> He just tricks his brain to make it seem like he's not on an island. Fair enough.
>> There's something else out there at 100 yards souths southwest.
>> Surely the shark isn't going to attack the boat.
>> Not a big boat like that.
>> Ben Gardner's boat. That's Ben Gardner.
You know him?
>> It's all banged up. Sure. I know him.
He's a fisherman.
>> He's MIA. Oh no.
Oh no, that is so crazy. Even on a boat, you are not safe.
That bite mark. Oh my god. Wow. He is brave.
>> Let's tow it in.
>> Yeah.
>> Don't worry, Martin. Nothing's going to happen.
>> Are you serious?
>> Absolutely nothing. Don't touch any of the equipment. I feel like this guy would be smart enough to not go in the water at night when the shark is clearly feeding in this area. Why the freak are you doing that?
Oh my god, dude.
Can't watch.
This couldn't have waited till morning or Oh, is that his tooth? Oh [ __ ] The song. The song. [gasps and sighs] [panting] It's here.
Dude, get the freak out of the water. Oh my god.
That scared the [ __ ] out of me.
My god.
>> [snorts] >> That That was terrifying.
>> Whenever human beings go in swimming, you cannot avoid it.
>> Yep.
>> Where where is that tooth? Did you see it, bro?
>> No, I didn't see it.
>> He dropped it.
>> I had an accident.
>> Tell him why. Why is he saying I had an accident?
Why are you being vague? Tell him you saw the head of the man and his eye was missing and he was all chewed up. Come on.
>> It's a Cararad and Carcarius. It's a great white.
>> But you you don't have the tooth.
>> Why the [ __ ] do you need the tooth?
>> Contact on because >> Oh my god.
>> Uh I think that I am familiar with the fact that you're >> I don't KNOW WHAT WE'RE YELLING ABOUT.
>> I hope you know the reference.
>> Sick vandalism.
>> Wow.
>> I'm not going to waste my time arguing with a man who's lining up to be a hot lunch. I'm going to see you later.
Please don't do this.
>> He's not.
>> I mean, how many more deaths is it going to take? Dude, >> all this machine does is swim and eat and make little sharks. And that's all.
>> Swim and eat and make little sharks.
So, there's more out there. Hold on. I wanted to see something real fast.
I love seeing the reflection in his glasses, the uh the lights around them.
You can see it just some of the studio lights around them.
That's kind of funny.
>> Do whatever you have to to make them safe, but those beaches will be open for this weekend.
>> Seriously, can't the solution just be don't go swimming? You can be on the beach, but can't go swimming. Like it's the same thing when there's like a riptide warning or something like that for the beach. You see those little flags and the how dangerous the water is. And sometimes swimming is not allowed when there's rip tides or just really strong currents or just dangerous waters. But you're allowed to be on the beach. So why can't that just happen?
Dip your toe in toes into the water and call it a day. Like just don't go swimming.
Sorry. Does that make too much sense or I don't know.
Uh, the shark's dinner is here. We should call the shark Hannibal Lecter.
Guys, were those actually were those extras? Are these guys in the back like extras or are they like actual people just from the town or there for summer vacation just checking out the set of the movie because they don't look like extras?
I feel like if they would they were extras the the production would tell them to to act normal and not stare down everybody.
Like those don't look like extras.
Good music.
>> Wow.
>> Oh, this makes me want to go to the beach for Fourth of July.
>> No one's in the water, it looks like.
>> So, >> I just put some suntan lotion on and uh I'm trying to absorb going in. Why would they? They don't want to get eaten. Please get in the water.
Oh my gosh. Seriously, bringing your kids, too.
Wow. Just putting your kids in danger.
No problem at all.
Look at all these sheep.
Dude, I would not even come close to that water if I was there. Truly, >> pond's for old ladies.
>> I know it's for the old ladies, but just do it for the old man. Huh? Please >> listen to your father.
You look like the Fourth of July.
Makes me want to rob Hold on. What did she say? [laughter] Hold on, buddy. What did she say? I see the the hot dog sign. The hot dog sign.
You look like the Fourth of July.
Makes me want a hot dog real bad.
Hope you know that reference.
>> Oh, >> cute little baby. He's such a cute little kid.
>> Oh my god. This shark is going to have a feast.
A feast.
Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. I actually don't understand.
I don't understand the mayor peer pressuring people to get into the water when he already has everyone at the beach spending money on food, hospitality. Like every the town is getting its business already. They don't need to be in the water to enjoy it, per se, but like I mean I feel like just peer pressuring people to get into the water is just asking for trouble. It's just like what are you thinking? What are you thinking?
I'm not prepared for another shark attack.
>> That we have in fact caught and killed a large predator that supposedly injured some [music] bas >> injured. The beaches are open and the people are having a wonderful time.
>> That's a fluffy way of saying killed.
God, politicians.
[gasps] Oh my god. Oh my god. There it is.
>> Jesus Christ.
>> People are freaking out. This is such a disaster.
The mayor is so dumb, dude.
>> No whistles. No whistles.
>> No whistles. Why? Oh, is that going to freak the shark out? Probably. probably >> makes everyone panic more.
>> What's up with these adult men just like pushing over children?
>> He's probably going to fluster the uh the shark more. Getting trampled.
>> Stupid ass mayor. What do you think was going to happen?
Oh, that's not even a shark. Wow. Oh, wait. Were they scaring people to get them out of the water?
>> What's going on out there?
>> Oh, no. They're just children.
>> Please, please move back. Let's move back. Please give these people some air.
>> Wow. Is everyone there? Okay. Did everyone get out of the water? All right.
Oh no.
>> Oh no. The kids in the pond.
>> Oh my god. Please don't tell me they kill all the children or it kills all the children.
There's two.
>> Hey fellas. Fellas.
>> Oh no. Dude, you are Hey you guys.
>> Oh no. Oh no. No. I know. I know. I know. Oh no.
Look how huge that is. No way.
Oh god.
This is horrific.
Get the Oh my gosh.
Good on him for not panicking. Panicking just makes it worse. Dude, I would never vacation in this area ever again.
[gasps] >> He's in shock.
>> A It's just traumatizing for everyone on the beach. There's all these kids like families just trying to have a good time and then like someone gets eaten by a shark. The mayor is so dumb. He better resign or someone get him out of office immediately.
>> How's my big kid?
>> I'm all right.
>> You are.
>> Oh my god.
>> You can watch television. Want me to bring you >> a If I was him, I would never go in the water ever again. I would be scarred for life.
Call me a [ __ ] but dude, this freaking mayor.
>> Want to take him home?
>> Like to New York?
>> No, home here.
>> She wants to get out of town.
I don't blame her. Can someone lay it into the mirror for me, please? God, >> I'm sorry. I I'm truly sorry.
>> What is he sorry? He's what is he sorry for truly?
He got He had all the answers and all the guidance and knew what to do before all of this happened.
This guy is unbelievable. I have so much anger for this guy.
>> I was acting in the in the town's best interest.
>> That's right. You were acting in the town's best interest and that's why you're going to do the right thing.
That's why you're going to sign this and we're going to >> How is it the town's best interest to go in the water in sharkinfested waters?
>> My kids all that beat >> and sign it, Larry.
>> Larry, you're pissing me off.
>> Get the mirror off my back so I don't have any more of this zoning crap.
>> Get the mare off my back.
>> You buy the lunch. Two cases. You get dinner when you get back.
>> Oh, wow. He hunts sharks for fun.
>> He has to swiming with bow-legged women.
>> Bowlegged women.
>> Come again.
>> I'm talking about working for a living.
I'm talking about sharking.
>> Sharking.
>> I haven't had to pass basic seammanship in a long time.
Take that out of yourself.
>> [ __ ] >> Is that a shark cage thing? Oh god.
>> Portable shark or a monkey cage.
Anti-shark cage.
>> Anti shark cage.
>> Cage goes in the water. You go in the water. Sharks in the water. Is that Kate strong enough to protect him?
>> Bostonall again.
>> He's singing about his death pretty much.
He's like, "Well, you're a goner."
>> It's got to be quint >> colorful, isn't it?
>> Colorful. See, you got your rubbers.
>> The lights I I've just noticed after, you know, watching so many movies on this channel that are a bit older, the lights, the movie and TV lights are just so strong that you see these shadows from the actors. Like, you see, you see the shadow from Quint on his vessel.
>> It's so apparent.
For some reason, my eye just goes to the shadows for some reason.
[laughter] All nice and dandy music before war.

>> HUH?
OH, dear God.
Oh, [ __ ] He brought the barrel down with him. Oh, Noru.
Look at the way he's standing there.
Dang.
I bet that little shot did nothing to hurt the shark either. Probably felt like a little pinch.
Look [laughter] at it.
Some more heel.
>> Oh, bit right through my wets suit.
>> Ouchie.
>> Go to the semiinal.
celebrating my third wife to me.
>> Third wife.
>> Oh, >> it's a bull shark.
>> I got something for you.

>> All right. Here. Hold on.
Yeah. You see that?
You wearing this >> hairy chest.
>> Marion Muffet.
>> Oh no, >> she broke my heart. [laughter] >> Japanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into her side chief.
>> The island of Tinian Del just delivered the bomb. The Hiroshima bomb.
>> Oh, damn.
>> But our bomb mission had been so secret no distress signal had been sent. Oh no.
So that's why he hunts sharks so much.
>> You know the thing about a shark? He's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eye.
>> Sharks are terrifying.
>> Despite all the pounding and the hollering, they all come in. They rip you to pieces.
>> My god.
>> Lost 100 men.
[sighs] I don't know how many sharks, maybe a thousand. I don't know how many men.
They average six an hour. [gasps] >> Did that actually happen?
>> So, 1100 men went in the war. 316 men come out. The sharks took the rest. June the 29th, 1945.
>> Jeez. Is that a true story? You guys need to let me know. Holy cow.
Also, that was amazing acting right there from Mr. Mr. Shaw. That was fantastic. And yeah, I am pretty sure this movie absolutely put the fear of sharks in some people 100%. After hearing this and seeing all the shark attacks, how can you not be afraid?
Singing with the whales or see your [singing] phone.
>> Oh [ __ ] the barrel.
>> What the hell?
Holy [ __ ] >> The damn shark is sinking the boat, dude.
And a fire.
>> Put out the fire. Go, go, go.
>> Done.
Oh no, it's gonna be pitch black. This shark is crazy.
So, so aggressive. I hope there aren't any sharks like this in real life. Oh my god.
>> What was that?
>> What was that across the sky?
>> There it is again. Is it supposed to be a shooting star?
with it. All that good once again.
>> Why is that so terrifying? Oh my gosh.
>> Think he's right under the cake. Grab the boat.
>> The shark likes playing with his food.
Wow.
>> I've got things on board that'll kill him.
>> Just want to goose him up. Come on.
>> Don't let it pull you in. Oh no, he gone.
>> Okay, maybe not.
I was like, "Where's that damn shark?
He's going to pop up." So many freaking jump scares from a shark.
>> Coast guard, this is the orc. Do you read me? Coast guard, this the do you >> What the hell? What's he doing?
Why did he do that?
The music switches up so fast from being like menacing and terrifying to light and airy and fun.
Watch it.
That shark is not afraid of anything.
Those bullets aren't doing anything. We need those oxygen ch tanks. We need him to bite into one of the oxygen tanks so he can explode.
>> THEY'RE UP AGAIN.
>> NOW WHAT?
Surprised this boat can work at all.
>> YOU WATCH THOSE BARRELS, BOYS. WATCH YOU.
>> I don't. This is going to be.
>> All right, gentlemen. Snag him.
>> It's going to be terrifying. Snag them before the shark snags you. This movie has me on edge.
>> GIVE HIM ROOM, BRODY. CLEAR HIM.
>> OH, GREAT.
Oh no.
Anytime they get like even a little bit close to the water, I'm just like, he's he's dead. He's gone. It's over.
>> Oh [ __ ] >> Oh no.
Oh my god. Imagine if he the boat capsized.
>> He going to HAVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN HE SEE HIM.
>> Don't get too ahead of yourself.
>> Look at that mother. GOD, THIS ONE TOO.
THEY'RE BOTH GOING.
>> HE'S eating his way right through that line.
>> Yeah, he's working his way right up to us.
>> They did a good job with the animatronic for the shark. Looks really realistic.
It's cool.
Terrifying.
>> Bloody hard.
>> Oh my god, you guys.
>> We're breaking up.
>> Yeah, just got to cut it.
Dear God.
>> What about us?
>> Looper, get the pump out of the locker in front of you, will you?
>> Maybe.
Yeah, maybe we should go back to shore, dude.
Oh my god.
The shark is terrifying. It's like the scariest thing. This guy is way too close to the edge. Chief, get away from the ledge.
It's quiet. Too quiet. Let's like go.
Let's go back to town.
Wait, don't put that much pressure on him.
What's he doing?
He has a plan. Why is he smirking?
Boat's going to explode.
>> All right, stop the boat. Stop the boat.
Oh my god.
Does Quinton have some master plan we don't know about? Like what the hell is he freaking doing, man?
The music in this movie has me confused sometimes because we'll get the menacing shark music and then the nice flute the next second.
Oh, life jacket. He said he was never going to put on a life jacket again.
Oh my god.
Shark is just going to wait.
What's Quit's deal? Truly, I don't understand what he why he did that to the boat.
Why he crushed communication to the Coast Guard? Why?
>> Pump 20 cc's of strictly nitrate into him if I can get close enough.
>> Damn, I forgot about the shark cage.
Alrighty. Damn it.
He gonna die.
He's gonna die, isn't he?
I would be freaking terrified to go uh in the shark cage.
Very brave man. Try to keep him off with lower.
Oh, how terrifying.
Nothing sounds worse than being under underwater in a cage. That sounds pretty freaking terrible.
Oh, and and in sharkinfested waters at that. Oh my god.
Uh, not terrifying at all.
Get it in him. Stick it in him.
He's coming. He's coming back. Oh my god.
The silence is uh I can't deal with it.
Your arm, dude. He's going to get it.
[music] He dropped it. Oh, [ __ ] Oh my.
[gasps] The cage is open.
Oh no.
Oh my god. No.
How is he?
Ooh.
He's gone, isn't he? There's no way he survives this.
[gasps] Oh no, he got it. Oh my god, he got out of the cage to get it.
>> Bring him up now.
Did the shark not see? I don't think the shark noticed him. Gone. Oh my god.
BRING HIM UP.
COME ON. OH, [gasps] it's going to break.
Oh my god, you guys.
Slow, slower, slower.
>> Holy [ __ ] Dear God, the sound design in this gets me jumpy.
Oh no.
No. No. No way. No way.
Shut the [ __ ] up. That is terrifying.
Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?
[screaming] Oh no.
Oh my god, you guys. That's [ __ ] terrible.
That is awful.
Oh my god.
This is actually some of the most horrifying things I've ever seen in my life.
This shark is insane.
Yes. Put it in its mouth. Make it explode.
Kaboom. Kaboom. Right. Oh no, dude. Poor Captain Quint.
No way. He survived that massive shark attack with the Indianapolis and then he actually freaking dies this way.
Oh my god, I'm going to be sick.
[laughter] This shark can't die.
This shark doesn't give a [ __ ] It He's like, I don't care how many times you shoot me or poke me or do anything to me. Blow up. [snorts] >> Oh my god. Oh my god. It's sink.
Smile, you son of a.
That was badass.
Oh my god. Smile, you son of a [ __ ] I love that.
Wow.
Oh my gosh. [laughter] Poor Quint though.
Get out of the freaking water if you can. Oh my god. Dang. I didn't think it was Quint that was going to die. I thought it was going to be this guy. What's his name? Hooper.
Hopper.
Forgot his name. My heart is beating a million miles an hour right now. I can't even think.
Please tell me there's only one shark.
>> I would not be laughing. I would be crying and wanting to get the freak out of the water immediately.
>> I used to hate the water.
>> Please tell me a shark doesn't come up behind them. I'm traumatized now.
>> I can't imagine why.
>> Okay, they actually made it.
Oh, that's it. Oh my god.
Oh, I'm nauseous after watching this.
[laughter] I don't know how to feel, you guys. I kind of want to cry. I'm not going to lie. That was horrific.
Such a good movie for sure. But horrifying movie, you know. I never thought watching a movie like this would actually be like I don't know, would shake me up like this. truly. I think because I don't know going into Jaws, I knew what it was about. I knew that it was about a shark killing a bunch of people, eating a bunch of people, um, and all that, even though I had never seen the movie. I, you know, we could guess like what it was about and all of that. And of course, I've heard the iconic dun music before. I feel like anyone in their mama has. But yeah, even going in knowing the premise of the movie and all of that, it still shook me to my core with how graphic everything was. Like, no one was safe in this movie. Dogs were not safe.
Children would were in safe. Women were insafe. Main characters weren't safe.
There was no plot armor in this movie.
And I really, really appreciate it. I know that there is a sequel. I think there's like a Jaws 2, three, maybe even a fourth movie. You guys need to let me know if it's worth watching. I mean, I am truly shaken up by the visuals of this movie, the the scenes on this movie. Just wow. They did such a great job just depicting this violent animal in the water and almost in a way was a bit more terrifying not seeing it. you see the attacks and everything, but as soon as you see the shark under the water, um, it's still very terrifying, but I feel like I didn't get the same sense of unease as when, you know, you know, it's under the water somewhere, but you don't know where. This huge, crazy, insane shark just hunting people. I don't know. Yeah, this is a different kind of horror for sure. Yeah, I I'm I feel like I'm exploring so many different kinds of um horror subg genres through my movie reactions on this channel, and it's such a treat, especially cuz, you know, I just did um Silence of the Lambs, which was psychological horror, like kind of a thriller and all of that. You know, we did some paranormal horror. Um you know, [clears throat] all sorts of stuff on here, but never anything like this. I I don't know if this would be like gore or something. I have no clue. You guys will need to let me know. But yeah, I enjoyed this movie. Um, even when you do know somewhat of the premise of the movie, you are still surprised by a lot of different aspects of it, especially when it came to the shark attacks and all of that. It's just nerve-wracking. the music, the gruesomeness of the attacks, [sighs] the actors, uh, you know, screaming for their lives and how well they were able to portray that. I mean, that whole scene with Quint at the end there. Oh my god, that's going to haunt me. That like there are some really haunting scenes in this movie that will stick with you forever. And truly like I I feel like people I would not be surprised if people are like traumatized from this movie just being afraid of going into the water into the ocean because of sharks or afraid of something like this happening to you. I would not be surprised at all like this makes me nervous to even go in the water.
[laughter] I mean, I actually whenever I do go to the beach, especially on the east coast, I do see like dolphins and and shark fins and things like that all the time in the horizon, but nothing quite like this. But regardless, it is horrifying.
And I think it's it's extra horrifying because, you know, like something like this could happen to you in real life.
We hear about shark attacks all the time. We hear about people losing limbs from being in the ocean and then a shark comes up and they had no idea or whatever. You always hear about um if you do see a shark to not panic and splash around a lot or to not wear jewelry or anything shiny in the ocean.
Um so yeah, it's it's just kind of jarring to see things like this. like, you know, I've never really seen like I know this isn't real footage of a shark attack, but I would not be surprised if it's actually pretty accurate and how it goes and just like how bloody everything becomes and the tumbling of the shark and all of that.
Brother, I don't even know. I don't even want to think about it. But yeah, terrifying movie. I think the most horrifying part for me was the child.
Truly, that the child getting eaten by the shark was [ __ ] horrific.
[gasps] I I feel like every time the shark came up, my I don't know. Every time there was a shark attack, we knew there were going to be shark attacks in this movie. We knew it. But it doesn't matter. Every single time there was an attack, my jaw is to the floor and I'm horrified. It's like I I don't know. It It's just so jarring. My My brain cannot like get comfortable with the idea of someone being eaten in that way and dying that way. Oh. Anyway, fantastic movie though. [laughter] The acting was great. Um, Captain Quint, the actor for that played, he he did an amazing job. I think the guy who played Hooper did a wonderful job. I think everyone did a great job, but I especially have to give props to the actors who play the parts of being attacked in this movie. I feel like that is really difficult to do. Literally, how do you how do you act out being eaten to death by a shark? Like, that's so crazy. That That's very impressive that they were able to do it. It sounded very realistic and like their screams will haunt me forever. Just like Quint said. uh you know during the sinking of the USS Indianapolis.
[sighs] Anyway, I'm not going in the ocean anytime soon, but uh I I do love going to the beach and I love frequenting the beach when I can. But yeah, this movie kind of makes you terrified of going into the ocean, that's for sure. So yeah, you guys, thanks so much for watching.
