It’s been 50 years since Steven Spielberg’s Jaws terrified audiences and redefined what a summer blockbuster could be. Even after decades of shark thrillers and over-the-top horror movies, Jaws still reigns supreme as the scariest shark movie ever made. From Deep Blue Sea to Sharknado to The Meg franchise, countless films have tried to capture the same fear, but none have stood the test of time. Spielberg’s mastery of suspense, practical effects, and grounded storytelling made Jaws more than just a monster movie...it became a cultural phenomenon.
