The year 1977 was prime time for Jaws rip-offs, and this Italian import assembles some aging Hollywood legends (John Huston, Shelley Winters, Henry Fonda, Claude Akins) to jazz up its tale of a killer octopus that targets a Florida seaside town popular with tourists. The plot involves shady building techniques being used in the construction of an underwater tunnel, a spectacularly ill-timed boat race, and trained killer whales. It owes a lot to Jaws, but also has some of its own campy charms, like uneven dubbing and rubbery special FX. (Streaming on Prime Video and MGM+)
