Jaws was absolutely the first thing I thought of. So many kids suddenly developed a fear of ponds, lakes, and swimming pools because no one stopped and asked themselves if it was a good idea for a small child to watch people get eaten alive.
Yeah it was pretty realistic in some parts and B grade garbage in others but the movie overall was amazing it was the suspense and the invisible attacks and the acting chops that made that movie it scores 8.1 out of 10 all the other Jaws movies are steaming piles of doo doo though in comparisson, and the higher the number the movie the more ridiculously infantile and deranged the premise/plot gets lol to a point of the shark is now telepathically linked to the victims family it's seeking revenge on the familycand it's following them all the way from America to Jamaica to chomp someone up who just haplens to be the son of the voctims mum WTF? lmfao.
I could see one chasing you or circling you in real life especially if you whacked it over the head with something like an awe and it didn't kill it, but telepathic sharks with a axe to grind? That's when it starts to take the p@ss one drip too far haha.
But don't let that disuade anyone in any way from watching them all, they can be dark and good in certain parts, they all have character of the era they were made that by today's movie production standards makes everything today just look compketely dull/generic/plain and regurgitative un-charismatic cr@p
