Thriller, isn’t it?

This,or possibly a psychological thriller. The stalker is a shark.

I assume its a horror movie, in what genre would you label it?

Erotica.

Jaws is a singularly stupendous piece of film making. It's nigh on flawless for me.

 

But Indiana Jones as a collective were my choice. Just great action films with Ford and Connery at the top of their game in The Last Crusade. Let's not mention that LaBeouf fellas input...

[Scooby Dudek 1,913]

Jaws is list as Adventure, Thriller on IMDb.

 

I voted Jones but want to change my vote, now I have discovered this;

Santa Jaws

First no one believes him but soon his remaining family and friends find out it's true and race to battle for survival! Who will win?!

I'm pissing myself at this but it's worth pointing out that the shark may well have used public transport.

Sharkbus?

Both “franchises” have only got one great movie in them. The equivalent sequels are just as bad as each other. 
 

I’m going with Jaws.

Does Jaws snog the lovely Kate Capshaw? No!

 

Does Jaw have probably  the coolest dad in cinematic history? No!

 

Who cares about part 4?!

I watched crystal skull again recently and it does have some dodgy moments but it's not all bad - despite not being a patch on 1 & 3.

 

It still has the Indie charm, in places, though the quest isn't based off religion, they just randomly/lazily throw in aliens, the fridge moment, the monkey tree swinging moment, John Hurt mumbling a lot, the absence of nazi's, Ray Winestone's  "Jonesy!"

 

........ah sod it!

I feel the same way when entering a cave and wondering about a large boulder trapping me inside. 

 

Though given our current form maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing?
