Deep Blue Sea (1999)

Good shark films are hard to come by, as most are just typically bad. Although the Sharknado series of films could have been obvious choices for this list, this 1999 classic deserves to be recognized over the intentionally bad Sharknado movies. A common theme with what makes these films such classic hits, despite being bad movies, is that the internet has immortalized their most iconic moments. One moment in Deep Blue Sea is Samuel L. Jackson’s rousing speech, meant to galvanize the remaining survivors of the science team, before it is ultimately cut short with a cheesy and dated CGI shark rising to chomp him down in hilarious fashion.
