What happens

Spring Break Shark Attack is a 2005 joint South African-American made-for-TV thriller film. It was the brainchild of executive producer J.J. Jamieson, who wrote the initial story and sold it to CBS. The teleplay was written by James LaRosa and directed by Paul Shapiro. The film stars Shannon Lucio, Riley Smith, and Justin Baldoni, with Kathy Baker and Bryan Brown. After television release in the United States, the film had a limited non-US theatrical release, before going to DVD. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
