About this product

Product Information

From the best-selling novel by Peter Benchley, Steven Spielberg directed this thrill ride of terror. During the height of beach season, the Massachusetts resort town of Amity Island is terrorised one summer by surprise attacks from a great white shark. Three unlikely partners team up to hunt down the rogue and destroy it: the new chief of police from New York (Roy Scheider), a young university-educated oceanographer (Richard Dreyfuss), and a crusty old-time fisherman (Robert Shaw). The film shoot was notoriously difficult for the young Spielberg, who had directed only one feature film before JAWS. The mechanical shark seldom operated correctly, and Spielberg was frequently forced to create the idea of terror without actually showing the shark. However, after the film premiered it went on to become the highest-grossing film of all time surpassing THE GODFATHER and becoming the first film to gross more than a hundred million dollars. Composer John Williams created the score to JAWS, which has since become a well-known theme of impending doom. Ron and Valerie Taylor were responsible for filming live sharks in Australia; their sequences were later mixed with footage of the mechanical shark.

  • Where are we going? Swimming!

    No matter how many times I watch this film it still makes me wary of the ocean depths. Since the release of JAWS there have been many shark horror/thrillers but none outshine this classic blockbuster. The casting of the actors in this movie is perfect and the fact that you don't see the shark for the majority of the film makes it all the more scary. Steven Spielberg plays brilliantly on the psychological fear of not seeing the shark and letting the viewers imagination run wild. This combined with the unforgettable John Williams music score adds to the terror making this film a true classic. *****

    A good print of the classic film. The first half has several set-piece scenes: a twee small seaside town in holiday season, shark attacks, beach mass panic, and suspense scenes, glued together by Scheider's concerned police chief, overruled by `business before safety' mayor, Hamilton. Shaw leads the Ahab-like shark hunt in the second half, aided by Dreyfus & Scheider. Two lasting cultural influences: Williams's famous Psycho-like shark theme & Shaw's `We're going to need a bigger boat'.
