Bucket of Chum

This month, it's all about the BEAR necessities.

Now that that joke is out of the way, it's GRIZZLY MAY! Naturally I start the month off with one of the first and probably best JAWS clones out there, GRIZZLY (1976) which is also one of two JAWS 50 episodes this month!

Join me as I dig my CLAWS into JAWS on land

I know your pants flood just as much as mine when I mention Casper Van Dien and Nicky Whelan in a movie. So this week I checked out 2023's gator flick THE FLOOD. But is there presence enough to keep us wet, or dry us up like my humour?

Tune in now as we conclude ALLIGATOR APRIL!

Eleven years after the original movie, someone decided it was finally time to make a sequel, or remake, or name their own gator movie after it? All this and more is unclear in this week's episode of ALLIGATOR APRIL on ALLIGATOR 2: THE MUTATION (1991). Starring Dee Wallace, Steve Railsback and Richard Lynch. Is it better than the first? Is great? Listen now to find out!

Last week I looked at ALLIGATOR (1980), so naturally I had to see an even better Alligator movie with THE GREAT ALLIGATOR (1979)...right?!

Directed by Sergio Martino and starring Barbara Bach, remember, it's not an animal, it's a demon!

This months JAWS50 episode is on 1980's ALLIGATOR! And, it's also kicking off ALLIGATOR APRIL!

When Ramon (sexy name amiright?) is flushed into the sewers, left to fend for himself, year later he grows into a big mean boy.

From the director of CUJO and starring ROBERT FORSTER, ALLIGATOR is one of the best creature features to come from the JAWS craze.

The Mississippi queen here is about a dozen bull sharks, ruining everyone's time at the fishing rodeo! It's up to a rag tag group to stop them. I could copy and paste that for about 90% of the movies I watch here, but this one is fun!

We take another outing from director Misty Talley (SANTA JAWS, OZARK SHARKS) and dive in to 2017's SyFy Original, MISSISSIPPI RIVER SHARKS starring non other than DAZED AND CONFUSED alum, JASON LONDON ...

Whip out your Big Betty's and join me as we summer in the Ozarks. There's no Jason Bateman or Julia Garner, but we got buff dudes, bikini babes, and a whole lot of bull, sharks.

From director Misty Talley (Zombie Sharks, Santa Jaws) comes another fun romp in the sharskploitation genre with OZARK SHARKS!

After being excited, or at least somewhat intrigued, from the trailer react, I finally checked out 2024's SHARK WARNING!

It has bikini babes, buff dudes, and bad CGI Sharks, but is it enough to warrant a watch? Or is it a warning to avoid at all costs?

Toxic Shark? You don't know toxic until you hear my review!

This week I let my toxic masculinity out as I review 2017's TOXIC SHARK. A bunch of sexy people get butt hurt by feelings, and then a dang shark comes along to ruin everything. I think there's suppose to be an environmental message in here but I stopped paying attention until there were boobs, abs and butts on the screen.

Baby it's cold outside. And there's a god damn shark on the lose!

The fun continues with an all new episode, as I check out SNOW SHARK: ANCIENT SNOW BEAST (2011) from the director of POST APOCALYPTIC COMMANDO SHARK (2018). An earthquake unleashes an ancient beast from it's frozen prison? Or wakes it up? All these questions and more will not be answered...

One of this months JAWS50 episode, I take a look at a movie Universal sued due to copyright infringement.

Is it really that similar to JAWS?

Watch now to see how this compares to JAWS and CRUEL JAWS (1995)

Deepest Bluest, but no Shark fin hat this time. Attack of the Sequels: The Sequel Month concludes with DEEP BLUE SEA 3 (2020)!

 The third and final entry in the Deep Blue Sea franchise, super sharks take out some dumb people, something, something...Doesn't matter, this movie's special effects and comedic timing make it a formidable entry into the franchise

Year 3 of Bucket of Chum and week 3 of Attack of the Sequels: The Sequel Month is here!

This week, I FINALLY review one of the most infamous sharksploitation movies to ever grace the screen.

Poorly composited shark attacks, terrible dialogue, and bewbs, Shark Attack 3: Megalodon takes the series to new bizarre depths. Starring John Barrowman (Doctor Who, Torchwood, Arrow) and Jenny McShane (Shark Attack (1999), Shark Attack 3 brings ...

In this episode of Bucket of Chum: The Shark Movie Podcast, I sink my teeth into Jurassic Shark 3: Seavenge! And it's a Polonia movie! Sure, it’s low-budget and full of questionable creative choices, but damn it, I love this stuff. Who doesn’t want more sharks, more revenge, and more over-the-top Sharksploitation madness? This movie delivers all that—and then some. Join me as I break down the carnage, celebrate the camp, and dish o...

YEAR 3, BABY! 

As the second year of Bucket of Chum Podcast comes to a close, I’m diving back into the depths of 2024 to revisit the highs, the lows, and everything in between. From the best (and worst) Sharksploitation movies to unforgettable guest appearances, I’ll share all the jaw-dropping moments that made this year one for the books. Plus, I’ll recap the shows where I had the honor of being a guest!

Looking ahead to YEAR 3 (Holy Sh...

Based on the hit video games and TV Show THE LAST OF US, comes CHUM!

After a dumb ass loses a cooler of re-animated shark....things, well that's when things turn up to 11!

Puppet sharks, boobs and a barrel of laughs, CHUM has something for the whole family (DO NOT LET YOUR KIDS WATCH THIS, STUPID)

Cheesy effects and a ridiculous plot. But will it help subdue what seems to be an everlasting rage at terrible shark movies?

Listen now and ...

Some incident happens, and then, shark attacks? There's also some scientists for a second. One of them is played by BRINKE STEVENS...so there's that.

After doing a trailer react to APEX PREDATORS 2: THE SPAWNING, and thinking it looked like a good time, I moved this one up the schedule. Was it worth it?

Watch now to see how long I can contain my, what seems like everlasting, rage in this week's episode.

What happens when an Atomic Shark bites an influencer? She turns into a mean, mean, lady. Shark like teeth and a bad attitude won't keep her safe when her friends discover what she's become. They'll put their "skills" to good use, but who else is out there lurking around...

Also the influencer lifestyle just looks insufferable. Also also, F*ck Ron.

Listen now to hear my thoughts on one of the latest shark movies to drop in 2024.
