If the new documentary Sharksploitation over on Shudder left you itching to revisit some shark attack classics, Netflix has you covered this September with the entire Jaws franchise.
Jaws, Jaws 2, Jaws 3, and Jaws: The Revenge are swimming back to Netflix on September 1.
It all began with Steven Spielberg’s horror classic in 1975, an adaptation of Peter Benchley’s same-titled novel that has been keeping people out of the water for almost 50 years now.
The late Roy Scheider’s heroic character Martin Brody survived the events of the original film and returned in 1978 for Jaws 2, once again saving Amity from another killer shark.
The franchise returned in 1983 with Jaws 3D, which brought the shark attack terror to SeaWorld in Florida. The film centered on Martin Brody’s sons, with Dennis Quaid starring as Michael Brody. Jenn Adams recently wrote an appreciation for Jaws 3D here on Bd, writing:

Our latest The Bottom Shelf DVD and Blu-ray round-up features Jaws 2, Jaws 3-D, Jaws: The Revenge and Chuck Norris...
With Shark Week arguably America’s most beloved religious festival and the unprecedented worldwide cultural impact of Anthony C. Ferrante’s acclaimed Sharknado trilogy showing no sign of letting up, who could deny the necessity of the Jaws sequels finally getting a Blu-ray release?
The immediate answer is obvious (well, anyone), though this belated look at Jaws 2, Jaws 3-D, Jaws: The Revenge and Jaws 5: The Sharkening was, for this writer at least, a nostalgic journey through a world where morbidly obese fish bear grudges, Michael Caine fights a script far deadlier than any marine predator and where lines such as “Weld that sonuvabitch” are somehow deemed passable.
Generally considered the best of the sequels, perhaps Jaws 2 holds a special place in the heart of the reader who,...

Exclusive: Producer and former Baywatch star Alexandra Paul and Meyers Media Group (Mmg) have announced the casting on the spoof spy in the run-up to Cannes.
Mmg represents world rights to The B Team and makes its production debut. The company is working with Joseph Cohen of American Entertainment to arrange financing.
UK filmmaker Chris Cottam will direct the fictitious romp about TV actors from a cancelled show who reunite to take down an arch-criminal.
Years after the show was used by the CIA to gather intelligence during promotional tours at the end of the Cold War, the Agency is blackmailed by a villain and discovers he loved the old show.
The Agency summons the actors to get close to the evil-doer and take him down. The conceit of the film, styled in the vein of Austin Powers and Johnny English, is that the show was Baywatch. The B Team will feature original cast members playing their real-life...
