Part of me did indeed enjoy it for being the cheesy monster movie that it is. As far as low budget creature features go today, Hammerhead: Shark Frenzy is a perfectly watchable B-movie.
One of the main reasons that I enjoyed the heck out of Mansquito review was because they put the monster front and center in all its cheesy glory and allowed it to go berserk. Whereas Mansquito gladly embraced its B-movie nature, Hammerhead: Shark Frenzy plays out in a self-conscious fashion, as if it were made by people unwilling to fully revel in its B-movie nature.
Despite being called Hammerhead: Shark Frenzy , the only thing really frenzied about the Hammerhead sharkman is the rapid fire editing they used every single time it appeared. A lot of monster movie keep the look of the monster obscured until the finale of the film.
The makers of this movie seem to be trying to obscure the look of the monster even when it appears onscreen. By the end of the movie you come to realize that except for a few very brief long shots of the CGI creature swimming in the water you never ever got one solid full body view of it.
Mad scientist Dr. King Jeffrey Combs, hamming it up with the kind of zeal that would make Vincent Price smile lures his forming colleagues to the uncharted island in the Pacific where he has been conducting highly questionable genetic research involving the use of shark DNA in finding a means by which to specialize human stem cells in order to cure diseases such as cancer sharks are seemingly immune from disease.
