Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus!
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009This is a real movie. I shit you not.
Released direct to DVD on May 19, 2009, it “stars” Lorenzo Lamas and Debbie Gibson (yes, that Debbie Gibson). The basic premise seems to be that the titular prehistoric giants were frozen mid-battle in an iceberg only to be released from their suspended animation ten million years later when a pod of confused whales collides with said iceberg after being driven off course by the detonation of an experimental sonic weapon by the military. The unthawed sea monsters resume their fight, obviously, and God help any submarine, airplane, or suspension bridge that gets in their way. Debbie…I’m sorry, Deborah Gibson plays the plucky oceanographer who somehow saves the day.
At least I think that’s what this movie is about, but does it really matter? A Carcharodon megalodon fights a gigantic octopus!
(p.s. the octopus would totally win.)
