THRASH Trailer Looks Like CRAWL and SHARKNADO Had a Baby

It’s hard to figure out what Netflix was aiming for with this movie—it definitely doesn’t feel scary. Combining a hurricane, sharks, and a pregnant woman is an odd mix, and the trailer mostly shows glimpses of the sharks, not full attacks. Plus, using the ‘Baby Shark’ song just ruins any attempt at a serious tone.

To be honest, the trailer starts off okay. As someone who grew up in Florida, I know hurricanes are genuinely frightening. Sharks are less so, but we’ll accept them for the sake of the movie. While the basic idea is a bit over-the-top, it’s not terrible. The problem is how it’s presented – it just doesn’t quite work. It’s hard to tell if Thrash is meant to be a comedy, but it definitely looks ridiculous. About halfway through the trailer, we see a very pregnant Phoebe Dynevor actually giving birth during a shark-filled hurricane – it’s a completely absurd scenario. And you’d expect to see more sharks in a shark movie, maybe they’re trying to build suspense.

The sharks in this movie are definitely an improvement over those in Sharknado – thankfully, they don’t fall from the sky! Even though the movie doesn’t take itself seriously, I think it could still attract a dedicated fanbase. Sharknado proves that – people love it despite (or maybe because of!) its over-the-top nature. So, Thrash has a lot to live up to. You can watch Thrash on Netflix starting April 10th.
