Toxic Shark

If you are after a comedy that actually makes you laugh out loud, Toxic Shark is available in the US on Amazon Prime Video and Fawesome right now. It knows exactly what kind of film it is from the opening scene, and never loses that thread. With 100 viewer ratings on TMDB, this is not a title flying under the radar. Kabby Borders sets the tone, and the rest of the cast matches it scene for scene. Start it on Amazon Prime Video whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, Toxic Shark is worth clearing space for. Sharp writing and a well-matched ensemble are what separate Toxic Shark from the crowd. A tropical singles retreat takes a terrifying turn when guests realize a poisonous shark is infesting the surrounding water. Not only will it rip apart its victims, but it also uses projectile acid to hunt - in and out of the water. Kabby Borders and Christina Masterson lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2017. Toxic Shark earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Toxic Shark is a strong candidate. If you have run out of similar titles to watch, this is a strong next pick. The complete film is available and best experienced without too much prior knowledge of where it goes. Kabby Borders sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
