Saturday shark-off: Shark Night 3D vs Bait 3D
Movie Feature

It's sharks in a lake versus sharks in a supermarket. I know who my money's on.
There are two competing shark movies due for release soon. Well, I say competing, but one of them will probably make it to cinemas, and the other will probably be broadcast at 4.45am on the Syfy channel. See if you can guess which is which, as I use my own sharkish cunning and pit them against each other in a fight to the death. WITH SHARKS.
Starring: Sara Paxton and Chris Carmack, who sound like a lovely couple. I wish them the best of luck.
Directed by: David R Ellis, the insane genius behind Final Destination 2 and Snakes On A Plane. B-movie guff is his bread and butter - and he's capable of making excellent sandwiches. Incidentally, this is his IMDB profile picture.

What's the story? You know the drill. Seven sexy teens go on vacation to a deserted island where they're menaced by a force of nature none of them ever expected to blah blah blah. Die already.
How hard are the sharks? They look like pretty run-of-the-mill sharks, to be honest. If a bunch of preppy, beer-chugging, collar-popping asshats came and swam in my lake, I'd probably try and eat them too. They're not giant, mutated or even being bred to cure Alzheimer's, for shame.
Show me a picture of a sexy woman in a bikini:

Does the black dude die first? Looks like it, although I'd have preferred it if he landed his wakeboard directly in a shark's gaping mouth.
Does it have the weedy guy from Avatar in it? Yes.
Does it have someone doing an underwater 'shark walk' wearing armour made out of shopping carts? Not from what we can tell so far.
Potential quibble with the title: It's not actually set at night.
Starring: Julian McMahon (Dr Doom) and Xavier Samuel from one of them there Twilight pictures. Also the girl from Step Up 3D.
Directed by: Russell Mulcahy, the director of Highlander and the new Teen Wolf TV series. So I think it's safe to assume this will be something of a mix of the two, only with SHARKS.
What's the story? I'll let IMDB take this one:
"
"
"A freak tsunami traps shoppers at a coastal Australian supermarket inside the building... along with a pack of tiger sharks."How hard are the sharks? They're in a supermarket. It's not enough they rule the ocean, they're invading our turf too. They're eating our groceries and queuing in our queues with more than 10 items. Bastards.
Show me a picture of a sexy woman in a bikini:

Does the black dude die first? I don't think there are any black guys in Australia, are there? Only really tanned white guys.
Does it have the weedy guy from Avatar in it? No, he was busy making Shark Night 3D (see above).
Does it have someone doing an underwater 'shark walk' wearing armour made out of shopping carts? YES.

Potential quibble with the title: Only that it isn't called SuperSHARKet.
