What happens

Ghost Shark is a 2013 American supernatural horror comedy film directed for the Syfy television network by Griff Furst. With Furst joined by Paul A. Birkett and Eric Forsberg for screenwriting, the film premiered on Syfy on August 22, 2013. Despite being panned critically, the film attracted attention on social media due to its fantastical premise. Websites such as Vulture commented on moments from the film. A similar film, Ghost Shark 2: Urban Jaws, was released on July 1, 2015 following positive reception of a faux trailer posted to YouTube in 2010. The two films are unrelated, other than both being films featuring killer sharks. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
