Movie synopsis

From the best-selling novel by Peter Benchley, Steven Spielberg directed this thrill ride of terror. During the height of beach season, the Massachusetts resort town of Amity Island is terrorized one summer by surprise attacks from a great white shark. Three unlikely partners team up to hunt down the rogue and destroy it: the new chief of police from New York (Roy Scheider), a young university-educated oceanographer (Richard Dreyfuss), and a crusty old-time fisherman (Robert Shaw). The film shoot was notoriously difficult for the young Spielberg, who had directed only one feature film before JAWS. The mechanical shark seldom operated correctly, and Spielberg was frequently forced to create the idea of terror without actually showing the shark. However, after the film premiered it went on to become the highest-grossing film of all time--surpassing THE GODFATHER and becoming the first film to gross more than a hundred million dollars. Composer John Williams created the score to JAWS, which has since become a well-known theme of impending doom. Ron and Valerie Taylor were responsible for filming live sharks in Australia; their sequences were later mixed with footage of the mechanical shark.

ws is 30 years old. This scary blockbuster film is celebrating it's 30th anniversary with a special 2 DVD set and 60-Page Commemorative Photo Journal. It is an excellent DVD set for the fan of the scary film from Steven Spielberg.


One DVD features the film, in Dolby Digital 5.1 Audio and includes the Original Theatrical Mono Audio Track. It also includes deleted scenes and outtakes and from the set: A never-before -available interview with Director Steven Spielberg.

The second DVD features the making of JAWS, a two hour documentary featuring interviews with Steven Spielberg, Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider. It also includes JAWS Archives: Production photos, storyboards, marketing JAWS adn the JAWS phenomenon. <P> The real fun of this new release set if the Limited Edition 60 Page commemorative Photo Journal. It includes color photos of classic scenes ("You're gonna need a bigger boat") and scenes from the making of JAWS.


This movie has endured the test of time and is an all time classic film. It is suspenseful and scary and keeps you glued to your seat, even after viewing it time and time again.

Starring Roy Scheider as Chief Brody

Robert Shaw as Quint<BR Richard Dreyfuss as Matt Hooper

Fish Story Is A Whopper

Created: 15/11/06
3 decades after it's release, still one of the best of all time. Seeing this as a kid, I had nightmares that my bed was floating in the ocean, and Jaws was out there going to get me. Just remembering the horror parts are enough to make me cringe, but seeing this movie again recently made me realize what a good story and what an excellent cast this movie brought with it. Roy Scheider will forever be remembered for the man who killed Jaws. What's amazing is the movie is scary, and you don't even see the shark for like the whole first hour of the movie, and it's still compelling. And the part where Richard Dreyfuss checks out that ship and the decomposed head pops out, I jump every time I see that. Extra deleted scenes, and the Making of Jaws are worth watching, even though no extras are needed to enjoy this classic.

A great suspense movie with alot of extras.

 | Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.

This movie came out when I was in high school. The picture and sound quality is much better than the original. Both are available on this disk. This is a classic thriller that is a great addition to anyones collection. There are a ton of extras. Including a two hour documentary on the making of Jaws. You get a lot for your money on this video. I think anyone would be satisfied unless you do not like fish or suspense. You may never swim in the ocean again. Plesant dreams.
