Spring Break Shark Attack (2005)

The strangest thing about Spring Break Shark Attack is that the movie is mostly void of sharks. Instead it concentrates much more on partying at spring break and the blue collar townie who falls in love with the college girl.

Danielle really wants to go to spring break with her friends, but her dad says there are too many guys there who only want one thing. Sweet virgin Danielle is used to be pushed around by everyone, but she somehow manages to lie to her parents and go to spring break.

Unfortunately her dad is right and she is an easy mark for uber tool JT who slips her a roofie, which he later tries to blame on all round good guy and can't afford to go to college townie Shane, who works at his mother boat rental business.

Danielle's friends are idiots because after she passes out at their house party - which is attended by 100 people they don't even know - they leave her alone in the bedroom which is at the top of a staircase in the living area and doesn't even have a door. Way to protect your friend, losers! Danielle drunk dials her dad and apologizes for defying him. Daddy races down to spring break even though he has no idea where she's staying.

In other side plots, Danielle's brother is a marine biologist who is working on a machine that repells sharks and a local businessman is chumming the waters to draw sharks away from his hotel on the beach the next town over.

Danielle and her friends have a wacky hat montage, which pretty much tells you everything you need to know about this film.
