Bathtub Shark Attack

Bathtub Shark Attack: so I firstly wanna mention that this is not an official Hollywood-produced film…..this film was made by a friend of mine from the same grocery store I work at…so keep in mind it is a low-budget film…

This review goes out to my friend Maddie, who tragically passed away two days ago.
Maddie wasn’t just a coworker—she was a brilliant, hilarious soul with a passion for absurd horror, niche films, and sharks (obviously). She poured her heart into the weirdest, wildest projects, and Bathtub Shark Attack was her final film. Maddie, wherever you are, I hope it’s full of bonkers creature features, ridiculous one-liners, and shark chaos galore. You will be deeply missed, friend. 🦈💔

Now let’s get the rating out of the way.

Now that being said with all I said……I actually really liked this movie a lot, it’s absolutely Hysterical…..so overall I’ll give this film a solid 8.8/10….warning spoilers ahead y’all been warned.

The film opens up amazingly, it opens up with 2 bartenders about to pop in a copy of the Bathtub Shark Attack film to watch it…..huh talk about breaking the fourth wall they’re….don’t worry it absolutely gets more bonkers from her because a few seconds after the bartender starts talking at the screen which is pal comes up and says I thought we were watching a movie? Which he says we are…then he asks who u talking to. Then the bartender says oh I’m talking to the audience……lol yeah I can see where this film is gonna go, into absolute absurdity

So then we cut to a random woman being called into her bathtub so she can be given a bath, so she gets fully naked…..right, I also forgot to mention that this film has nudity, raunchy humor, gore, and cussing….yall been warned, anyways as soon as she gets into the bath and gets comfortable a random shark comes out of the drain and starts bitting her to death…..even though this is a low budget movie, and u can tell the shark is a small rubber toy….gotta admit the blood affects actually look legitimately real, good job editors…

So the plot officially kicks in with our 2 main characters our guy named Chad who really is just a Chad….he’s so boring that he is a Chad and his girlfriend named Cindy, and they’re both broke and she wants Chad to make more money she tells him they have F**k and all money….that’s one of my favorite lines lolo so then Chad gets up goes to the restroom to take a piss….where in the restroom he finds a sheet that says apartment room in a house for 100 dollars per week so now he and Cindy have a house to live at…..so he takes it out to show her….she’s excited and he’s excited…..and they realize none of them brought money or have money to pay the bartender….

Ok hold on wait a min hold it….so let me get this straight movie so they have Fuck and all money to afford anything yet they have enough money to pay 100 dollars per week to live in a house? Heh? Make up ur freaking mind movie how can they have no money but yet have enough to pay 100 dollars per week?

Anyways next day they head to the place where they’re greeted by the landlady whose name is Selina…..she shows them around the place and shows them their little apartment room…it’s this freaking nice big enough room with a kitchen, a table to eat at, a sofa, a TV, a bedroom,  bathroom….damn for the price of 100 dollars a week heck I’d wanna move into here….where can I sign up? And what a shocker Chad isn’t impressed….for some reason, and yeah idk why either he just says eh I don’t like it here let’s not stay here…uhh why not Chad? It’s a great place to live at? Besides the price of 100 dollars a week? Yeah, it’s a great deal….what’s wrong with it?

But no Chad just has to be Chad….as in he’s annoying and kinda of rude….but Cindy says we’ll take it….which is great but Chad being Chad he doesn’t think it’s great….. anyway Cindy loves it they’re but Chad wants to go live with his friends….Cindy doesn’t want that, basically, Chad just doesn’t want to live here…heck he says he’s gonna look for other places to move to but he will stay here for now just for Cindy…..yeah if u can’t tell Chad’s a simp for Cindy……

Also, Cindy doesn’t like Chad, yeah neither do i……anyways that night when they go to bed Cindy for some reason gets up and goes to the restroom, ohhhhh spooky, she’s lured to the bath tube which starts glowing red for some reason….she then sticks her hands in it and starts making grunting noises as if she’s enjoying it……uhhhhhhhhh….

Anyways Chad walks in wondering what’s going on? Cindy seems confused as if she is in a trance or something….he takes her back to bed…next morning he’s baking eggs and bacon for her, at breakfast he asks her about last night…for some reason, Cindy has no regulations of last night…she thought she was asleep the whole time… Dunn dunn dunn….but Chad doesn’t believe her, he just thinks she doesn’t want to talk about last night….ok Chad whatever u just be Chad…

Anyway Chad heads to his job which is a band he’s starting up….btw he ain’t no good singer…..and guess what Cindy does? She just sits at home and watches TV lolo…..also they need to call in a plunger because the bathtub won’t flush for some reason…..dunn dunn dunnn….

So Chad returns home later…Cindy is taking a bath again what a shocker, he offers pizza for the both of them and turns on some TV… Anyway, she comes out to Chad sitting with pizza and she tells him she doesn’t want pizza…..well talk about being ungrateful….

So she sits down on the couch with Chad to watch whatever TV he turns on, and she falls asleep…so he makes her comfortable by putting a blanket over her….well that’s sweet, to bad she doesn’t care about Chad….btw neither do i

Anyways now we cut to an alcohol dress-up party going on in another room in the house…..so this party is going on, and we focus on one drunk dude acting all drunk, such as pissing all over the floor and sink in the restroom….talk about being extremely drunk, anyways the shark comes out of the toilet and bites his dick off, ooooff ouch, well I guess he won’t be needing that for a while now will he? Lolo

So the shark comes in the room and starts slaughtering everyone because I guess he can now be outside of water somehow…..Anyway back to our 2 main characters, our female character wakes up to a knock at the door…it’s the plunger here to fix the drain issue in the bathtub….the plunger’s name is Bill Thummer…he was seen earlier trying to turn back on the light by fixing the electrical grid, take a guess how he tries to repair it? Essy with a plunger…because get it? He’s a plunger, haha haha

This guy made me laugh, I can see why he became a fan favorite…anyways he goes up to the apartment room, takes a plunger to fix the drain in the bathtub because yeah sure that’s how that works…then hold onto y’all hats because if y’all thought this film was odd, oh boy u know nothing yet…..here’s where things go bat shite insane…

The shark says “the fuck?”

Yes, u heard that right the shark talked, the shark talked!! It talked!! “They talk now!? They talk now!” Anyways the shark bites off the plunger’s arm when he has his arm jammed down the drain for some reason….so now there is blood all over the bath, the woman comes running back in and sees the blood but she gets lured to go into the bath so she takes a bath….huh?

Yeah, she takes a bath in a blood-covered bath! Oh, it’s because she’s possessed…..what is this shark, a demon? Anyways moving on the shark comes out of the toilet and kills the boyfriend…..oh no not him I totally knew so much about him…why him…

The girlfriend proceeds to run to their neighbors downstairs, turns out the neighbors are all in on this….they are a part of a cult that praises the shark whose name is Dakuwaka…..Praise Dakuwaka……yep ur welcome now that shan’t will be stuck in y’all head…

So anyways the cult of Dakuwaka kidnaps the woman, and she wakes up tied up to a table in a dungeon….. the cult plans to let Dakuwaka to impregnate her….oh goodie, can’t wait…

So she tries to reason with her neighbor friend, but she won’t budge…..instead, they’re all just chanting praise to Dakuwaka, and then Dakuwaka comes in gliding across the floor….the hell?

Then he goes up to her and says let me have it, then start uuhhhhhhhhhh well for u see….skip.

So anyways the Plunger shows up with his Plunger replacing his missing hand, God I love this Plunger and his bizarreness.

Anyway, he starts attacking the shark, then frees the woman….just then the shark grows spider legs….just roll with it, at this point u won’t make any sense out of it….so then the woman kills off the shark while the plunger attacks the cultists, the cultists get killed off….so does the shark, it’s all one happily ever after….

Yeah I wish, instead the film ends with the woman taking a bath just then she starts feeling pain, and then a baby shark bursts out of her u know…if that’s not weird enough the baby shark comes out of her and says “Mother” Oh my god…

The end, yeah that’s definitely an ending that’s for sure….I was more puzzled and laughing by the end of the film…

Like I said this movie is absolutely enjoyable, well hope y’all enjoyed this experience/review….I’m gonna try something new here by promoting my next reveiw at the end of my reveiws. So here’s a teaser of the next reveiw that will be posted shortly after this, it is of a horror short.
