One of my favorite flicks to watch during the summer 🦈
Based of the novel by Peter Benchley, many speculate that he got the idea from the 1916 shark attacks in my home state of New Jersey. There’s also a debate of which type of shark was responsible for these “attacks”. The great white, as depicted in Jaws, or a bull shark, which is able to hunt in both fresh and salt water. I’ve lived by the ocean most of my life and understand the “risk” when I decide to take a dip in the home of another creature regardless of how terrifying they’re portrayed as. #hallowsevehorror #jaws #stevenspielberg #peterbenchley #1975 #70shorror #summerhorror #royscheider #robertshaw #richarddreyfuss #horror #horrormovies #1916sharkattacks #amityisland
