Shark attack movies are a popular subgenre of thriller and horror films that center around deadly encounters between humans and sharks. These films often take place in ocean settings, beaches, or remote islands, where unsuspecting swimmers, surfers, or divers become the targets of aggressive, man-eating sharks. Classics like Jaws

(1975) set the standard, inspiring countless other titles such as Deep Blue Sea, The Shallows, and 47 Meters Down. With suspenseful scenes, intense chases, and dramatic survival battles, shark attack movies deliver adrenaline-pumping action and play on the primal fear of what lurks beneath the water’s surface.
