Horror fans everywhere, Bruce is coming to a new streaming platform now that the legendary Jaws film franchise has finally found its home on Netflix.
As part of Netflix’s latest monthly catalog update, Jaws, Jaws 2, Jaws 3, and Jaws: The Revenge are now available for its subscribers to stream.
Created by the legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg, the Jaws franchise has been a cornerstone of pop culture since its inception in 1975. The original film, aptly titled “Jaws,” not only launched Spielberg’s career but also established a new standard for suspenseful storytelling.
Centered around Bruce, a Great White Shark wreaking havoc on the fictional Amity Island, the movie became an instant sensation, drawing massive crowds to theaters. With its heart-pounding plot, brilliant direction, and the unforgettable theme music composed by John Williams, Jaws revolutionized the way audiences experienced fear and tension on the big screen.
The original film’s massive success paved the way for a full-fledged franchise that included sequels, each contributing to the mythos of the formidable marine predator. While Spielberg’s magnum opus remains unparalleled in its impact, subsequent installments brought new dimensions to the narrative, with bigger challenges to overcome and deadlier predators.
The addition of Jaws to Netflix offers new generations the chance to experience a franchise that has been consistently ranked among the best summer blockbusters of all time. Even though most modern audiences may be accustomed to sophisticated CGI and cutting-edge visuals, the practical effects in the first film still hold up pretty well, over forty years later.
