Rating: B-
To the film’s credit, this is not just a shark swimming around with a Santa hat on its fin [even if that’s obviously the hook]. Nor is the IMDb explanation entirely accurate – “Trying to survive the family Christmas, Cody makes a wish to be alone, which ends up backfiring when a shark manifests and kills his entire family” – because the makers, perhaps surprisingly, put genuine effort into creating a back-story. Teenage, aspiring comic artist, Cody (Miller, channeling the young Edward Norton) acquires a pen that makes whatever he draws, come to life. Unfortunately, the first thing he uses it for, is his “Santa Jaws” strip, about a vengefully festive shark. She soon starts munching her way through his family: for obvious reasons, he has great difficulty in getting anyone beside schoolmates Steve (Tran) and Jena (Cummings) to believe him or help defeat the threat. Not least since Santa Jaws can only be harmed by Christmas-themed weapons…
