The only supernatural Jaws in the series


Apparently, the shark in this movie is the ghost of the shark that Brody killed and it's back from the dead for revenge. It killed Sean and followed the family all the way to the Bahamas to get them because it has ESP. It's very odd they would go this direction in the series and make the fourth one supernatural. I don't know how they could've possibly thought this was a good idea. Not only do I blame the writer, I blame everyone else, from the director to the producers. They should've never let this happen. It wouldn't have been as bad if the shark was an entirely different shark and not a shark that was back from the dead and going after the Brody's for revenge.

^^^^ correct - the shark is almost a weapon and in the novel(which you see the sharks POV) even he cant explain what is happening. There is a drive pushing it.

Yes,

He becomes friendly with Mrs. Brody (to her, he is a charming hotel and casino owner).
The casino in the movie, where jakes wife is a croupier on new years eve, is actually his joint.

there is a big shoot out, when hoagie attempts to make the arrest and the guys ends up escaping to an airfield. (Im sorry this is were i get blurry) But i think he gets in a plane as well, which hoagie manages to damage. (End memory Blur) He ends up crashing into the ocean by Neptune's folly (mrs brody has already taken the ship to sea to face the shark) she witnesses this and shouts to him. He pleads for her help but the Great White ends up catching him.
