the original? please tell me they haven't remade it? some movies should NOT be allowed to be remade IMO.
i watched it once and NEVER AGAIN, i grew up in ballina basically IN the surf and to this day i still hum the theme when i am swimming, it scares the hell out of me.
also i've had 2 brushes with sharks, first one i was swimming all day only to have them call everyone out of the water as a 3 meter tiger came along the shallows ! they knew it was there @ 100 meters off the beach but felt that was ok !!!!!!!!! ( @ 1979 )
next i was on my surfboard when a fin was coming STRAIGHT for me, there were no waves, mid set, so i put my feet up on the board LOL thinking i was safe now ! , the fin disappeared and next minute right next to me at a massive speed...........jump a dolphin right over me for fun, FFFFFFFFFF i sh*t myself, caught the next wave and it was weeks before i went back in.
the problem is ballina is a fishing trawler town, so the sharks follow them back, thats why so many attacks compared to byron. byron no fishing, most of it is national park ( to state the obvious this includes the bay)
