The 3rd type of Shark Movie Poster: HANDS!!!

Previously I'd compared the two types of Shark movie posters (see the gallery HERE.) 

But here's another poster trope:  HANDS GRASPING FOR DEAR LIFE. 

The hands are always caucasian. And they frequently belong to men. (Otherwise the poster will show the woman in her bikini.) 

KINDERTRAUMA observed that GREAT WHITE's hand is the MORTUARY hand. (It appeared again on a book cover.)

KEVIN & MATT GEEK OUT ABOUT SHARK MOVIES

Thursday August 8th @ 8:00pm

at VIDEOLOGY 

308 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn NY 

Kevin and Matt Geek Out about SHARK MOVIES! is an obsessive look at dozens of classic (and some not-so-classic) movies from JAWS toSHARKNADO and almost everything in between. The hosts revisit the all-but-forgotten pre-JAWS films (dating back to the 1930’s). They sink their teeth into JAWSPLOITATION knock-offs, the sanctioned sequels, cable-TV documentaries and more contemporary CGI killer shark movies. Kevin and Matt also dissect the films that tried to be the next big blockbuster by substituting a Great White with a giant alligator, a man-eating octopus or a killer grizzly bear. Plus they showcase jaw-dropping clips from films that feature gratuitous shark scenes in non-Shark movies. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Shark geek-out without looking back at the hit TV show that literally jumped the shark.

Kevin and Matt were special guests at Martha’s Vineyard for JAWSFEST 2012. They’ve also presented their shark show at Boston’s Geek Week Comedy Festival, The Brooklyn Observatory and the 92Y Tribeca.
