SHARKS IN VENICE IS OUT ON DVD
10.14.09I first brought you news of Sharks in Venice nearly a year ago, and I’d be remiss if I didn’t follow up to inform that you can now own it on DVD and Blu-Ray and possibly laser disc, the format of kings. As you can see from the trailer, this movie has literally everything: sharks, treasure, Stephen Baldwin, sharks, machine guns, boats, Italians, sharks, motorcyles, chainsaws, sharks, and sharks. And might I add, critical acclaim?
[From an Amazon user review] Ah, Venice. The gem of Europe with it’s swimming pool colored water, incompetent police force, and English-speaking citizenry who occasionally string together a many as two or even three simple Italian words together just so you know you’re in Italy. And how could one forget the roaring man-eating great white sharks patrolling the surface in broad daylight that nobody ever sees and ignores even when they tear through a gondola or two and then spend two minutes chomping at minuscule floating bits of bait while one wonders where the rest of the person they are supposedly eating is? Either way, the populace simply report these people as missing and the police do their best to assure everybody that it was just a boating accident even when there is no evidence of a boating accident aside from the occasional gnawed torso floating around. Because they wouldn’t want tourism to go down, see? Personally, I’d go to Venice right the hell now if there was a chance I’d see a great white shark eat a dude. Now what’s REALLY scary is all of those boating accidents.
And if you act now, you can buy Sharks in Venice bundled with Yeti and Warbirds for just $35.97. How awesome would that be?? You’re right, Stephen Baldwin, there is a Santa Claus.

Think the sharks are bad in Italy? Try getting the crabs…
I thought Chodin was exclusive to FilmDrunk.
If the solution to this problem isn’t introducing genetically modified octopi to the canals, then I ain’t interested.
I’m glad everyone is taking this time away to mourn Captain Lou Albano.

I thought Polanski didn’t know how to swim.
You’re gonna need a bigger baguette.
I thought most loan sharks came from Italy anyway.

This is a metaphor for Puerto Ricans in Brooklyn.
Sharks in Venice only want fair treatment.
Hath not a shark eyes with a nictating membrane that activates to protect them when they attack?
If you prick them, do they not bleed and cause a feeding frenzy?
If you dangle an appendage over the side of a gondola, do they not bite the fuck out of you?
Soundtrack provided by Great White. This will be the only time it’ll be acceptable to yell ‘fire’ in a crowded theater.
There are sharks in Sicily too, you just never hear about them because of all the moped accidents.
The first thing a Shark in Italy does to its victim is to bite off his hands, that way he can’t call for help.

I officially call thumbs down on this one since everyone knows that there are no ethnic minorities in Italy.
How the hell else am I supposed to know who’s going to get eaten first?
