So what is it about this type of film that has attracted audiences and even earned millions of dollars for nearly a century?
Sharks are the inspiration for many horror films
Horror and thriller movies about sharks have been around for nearly a century.
To date, no shark movie has made as much as Jaws in 1975. With only $9 million in production costs, the movie grossed nearly 53 times more, and is one of the most profitable monster-themed movies.
The image of `shark hunting people at sea` has inspired to this day, with dozens, even hundreds of large and small shark movies produced each year.
Many low-budget works but `huge` revenue
Besides Jaws, a number of successful and highly rated shark films have contributed to making this genre of film attractive and attracting audiences.
It was not until 2018 that the birth of The Meg officially brought the shark movie genre back to the title of `blockbuster` since Jaws.
But before meeting The Meg’s super monster Megalodon again, the audience will have the opportunity to meet an equally scary and terrible ocean legend.

Black Monster is set in a Mexican coastal town.
The appearance of a giant, bloodthirsty shark in the deep sea, through layers of black oil, makes the characters of Black Monster panic and struggle.
