Jaws (1975)
In the beautiful quaint beach resort of Amity
Island, something hideous, something so deliciously evil has vanquished
the tranquility and shattered the peace. First, it violently took the
life of a young girl, leaving her mangled remains rotting on the beach,
her echoed screams cursing the night skies. Next, it moved its attention
to the children, ripping and tearing as blood turned the calm waters
red. Then, just when they thought it was safe to go back in the water,
it struck again, mercilessly rampaging in the estuary and attacking the
piers where the fisherman unknowingly sat waiting for a catch. Now,
something must be done, before it returns to feed. With the Amity
tourist board and town Mayor Larry Vaugn determined to keep the beaches
open for the Summer Season, its up to Police Chief Brody, marine
biologist Matt Hooper and colorful fisherman Quint to hunt down the 200
Pound White Death and put an end to the bloodshed. They are going to
need a bigger boat.
