JAWS Documentary : Sharks Still Got it!
MehJAWS is a classic horror film that scared all of us out of the water and inspired film makers ever since. Now there is a documentary coming that brings together not just the whole crew of the film, but also all the great horror filmmakers and SFX people who have been inspired by it in a great new DVD called "The Shark is Still Working" Here is a clip from it of Eli Roth talking about how JAWS inspired him.
There have been several documentaries about the making of JAWS that describe the trials and tribulations endured by Steven Spielberg and his cast and crew while filming JAWS. The Shark is Still Working is about what has happened in the 30 years since JAWS was released. Narrated by Roy Scheider, the documentary shows how JAWS has changed pop culture, how it changed the film industry, how it affected the public perception of sharks, and how it inspired many filmmakers and fans.
Last June, JAWSFest '05 (the 30th Anniversary Celebration of JAWS) was held on Martha's Vineyard, and was attended by over 3000 fans from around the world. In the beginning, The Shark is Still Working was to be just about JAWSFest and JAWS fans, but it evolved into a much bigger project, including interviews with Steven Spielberg, Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, John Williams, and other cast and crew involved with JAWS.
