Jawswas a sensation unlike any movie before it: it launched not only the idea of the summer blockbuster but the mass fear of sharks and the ocean that remains prevalent to this day. It also kick-started a trend for shark movies that in one way or another took great inspiration fromJaws, as the documentarySharksploitationexplores in great detail. Some just decided marine predators were a cool angle, likePiranha; some went with the same premise but in a different location, likeGrizzly; others were so likeJawsthat they got into legal trouble, and the most egregious of these offenders was a janky little TV-movie from Italy imaginably titledCruel Jaws....
