holiday, refuses to put the island on a business-killing shark alert. But after

Mayor reopens the beaches, despite the warning from visiting ichthyologist
Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) that the attacks were probably caused by a far more
formidable Great White. And soon, they come face to teeth with the enemy.
