Critiques and Comic Relief

There are frequent jumps between numerous characters, scenes and actors, leaving some viewers feeling disoriented in a struggle to comprehend the multiple plotlines. It's an intentional choice of style that contributes to the spoof nature of the film, however, it might not be all people's cup of coffee.

The production values of this film have been deliberately low and the acting falls into the realm of questionable. In spite of the plethora of bad performances Steve Guynn shines through with his outstanding performance. He is embodying his character instead of just reciting words. This is an uncommon example of genuine acting in a sea that is filled with overblown and sloppy performances.

Shark Puppets and Bonkers Plotlines

"Sharks of the Corn" embraces its low-budget nature with affordable effects and an attractive charm. Many of the sharks are hilariously rendered by hand puppets. These add some humour to the movie. The absurd plot, that revolves around a cult of sharks' plan to resurrect a shark goddess that is where the story lets its creativity shine. However, this creativity often doesn't translate into an captivating entertainment experience.

Amateurish Cinematography, Explosions Optional

One area where "Sharks of the Corn" fails is the cinematography. The visuals and framing come in a tinier way, lacking the finesse and polish found on mainstream horror films.
