Chompfest 2024 The owner of the site asked me to participate in Chompfest with Baron’s shark reviews and I was more than happy to; with the first film Meg 2: The Trench. I didn’t know what other shark movie to pick as Jaws was already done. Baron suggested I do a review of a non-shark…


DOA: Psycho Shark (2009) – By Baron Craze

CHOMPFEST 2024 CASE NUMBER #100 This is a movie I like to use that noun very loosely when describing this outrageous smelly carcass laying on the shores of the DOA graveyard it could not manage to flounder itself into an open grave. It officially lacks any semblance of what a movie is, a series of…

Up From the Depths (1979) – By Baron Craze

CHOMPFEST 2024 After the incredible success of the Steven Spielberg’s Jaws [1975] the animals attack (aka: nature’s revenge/environmental horror) began appearing in every facet all for the b-movie market where low budgets reigned supreme and so bizarre storylines were in abundance. There was no shortage of films even if one limits themselves to the sea-fearing…
