Shark movies have always been a draw to movie fans ever since Steven Spielberg's Jaws showed the potential of a well-crafted aquatic creature feature. From memorable attacks to likable main characters, Jaws set a template that many great shark movies continued to follow where others fell short. An early example of a similar success came in 1997 when Deep Blue Sea introduced intelligent sharks that challenged a cast of unique but charismatic survivors. Even still, the most unique shark movie had yet to come until 2018's The Meg showed fans what happened when a new level of fun entered the genre thanks to the appearance of a prehistoric shark.
