🦈 5-Headed Shark Attack: When One Shark Head Just Isn’t Enough

5-Headed Shark Attack

If you thought a single shark was terrifying, try imagining one with five heads.

Released in 2017, 5-Headed Shark Attack is a wildly over-the-top sci-fi horror movie from The Asylum — the same studio known for cult classics like Sharknado. This installment continues their proud tradition of ridiculous creature features, this time featuring a genetically mutated monster tearing through the waters around Puerto Rico.


šŸŽ¬ The Premise

Marine researchers and beachgoers find themselves under siege when a mutated five-headed shark rises from the depths of the ocean. With its heads arranged in a starfish-like pattern and a thirst for blood, this apex predator is more than just a threat — it’s the stuff of absurd nightmares.

As the death toll rises, a team of scientists and law enforcement must band together to stop the unstoppable… preferably before it grows a sixth head.


🤯 What Makes It So Wild

  • Five Heads, One Body, Endless Chaos: The design of the creature defies logic — which is exactly the point. It’s ridiculous, terrifying, and kind of hilarious all at once.

  • Beach Horror Meets Sci-Fi Absurdity: Think Jaws on a lot of energy drinks. The plot barely takes a breath as the shark goes on a rampage.

  • Campy Fun: With dialogue that makes you laugh (sometimes unintentionally), and CGI that’s gloriously low-budget, it’s perfect for fans of “so-bad-it’s-good” cinema.

🦈 Interesting Facts

  • This film is the third in The Asylum’s Multi-Headed Shark Attack series, following 2-Headed Shark Attack (2012) and 3-Headed Shark Attack (2015).

  • The monster actually evolves mid-film — giving ā€œgrowing painsā€ a terrifying new meaning.

  • Despite being a low-budget film, it found a strong cult following, especially among fans of Sharknado-style chaos.


šŸŽÆ Is It Worth Watching?

If you enjoy serious, character-driven storytelling with rich themes and realistic tension… this probably isn’t your movie.

But if you’re looking for a wild, brain-off ride with outrageous monster action, over-the-top performances, and the kind of plot twists only a five-headed shark can deliver — 5-Headed Shark Attack is your next movie night hit.
