A great documentary about JAWS featuring star-studded interviews and some behind-the-scenes info you’ve only had nightmares about.

Weird Wednesday (8/4) - "Mako - The Jaws of Death"
A special Weird Wednesday presentation of one of the great shark exploitation films. A man is given a necklace with the power to befriend sharks, and he uses it for revenge against the shark’s greatest enemies, fat men.
Master Pancake Theater (8/4) - "Deep Blue Sea"
LL Cool J don’t stand a chance against our hilarious film-mockers. Oh, you’ve got sharks that can cure Alzheimer’s, oh ok…
Quote-A-Long (8/5) - "Cabin Boy"
The greatest quote-along of all time, featuring Chris Elliott saying “These pipes are clean!”
Hecklevision (8/8) - "Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus"
A battle for the ages in the horrible, horrible movie. Text your taunts or get bit.
