VOD: Deep Blue Sea 2 (dir: Darin Scott, 2018)

"This is bad.  This is really bad."

Nearly two decades on from the daftly enjoyable B-movie antics of the original (cinema) film, this pale, cheaply-mounted re-tread disappoints.  .  The single new plot development idea involving the shark attackers is mostly squandered through repetitive and limply-realised sequences, as the effects budget is clearly saved and employed for certain sequences.  Overall, this is a slow, thinly-drawn movie and the no-name cast offers little of interest.
