The film that made Steven Spielberg's reputation as a moneymaking director is also still a stone-cold classic of aquatic horror. Like William Friedkin's film The Exorcist, it is the template for all scary shark films going forward. Filmmakers, including some of the ones who directed the film's sequels, are still searching for the magic that Jaws still has.

Based on a popular Peter Benchley novel, it has the advantages of a great cast, including Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, Robert Shaw, Murray Hamilton, and Lorraine Gary. Even the actors in the smaller roles do excellent work, which goes a long way toward explaining the movie's gigantic success. This year is the 50th anniversary of the release of Jaws, originally unleashed at the box office on June 20, 1975, just in time for summer.

In the inevitable sequel, Chief Brody must protect the citizens of Amity after a second monstrous shark begins terrorizing the waters. Steven Spielberg did not return as director, and French director Jeannot Szwarc took the helm. Murray Hamilton, as the venial mayor of Amity, and Lorraine Gary, as Ellen Brody returned to the cast.

Jaws: The Revenge is a sequel to Jaws 2 and advances a storyline where the events of Jaws 3 never happened and takes place in the Bahamas, after the vengeful shark follows the Brody family to tropical waters.
