The premise

Many years ago, hundreds of locals and tourists were massacred by giant man-eating sharks in the infamous 1916 Jersey Shore attacks. But that's just a legend... or is it? It's a holiday weekend on the Jersey Shore and, unbeknownst to anyone, underwater drills have attracted dozens of albino bull sharks to the pier. When a man goes missing, TC (The Complication), Nookie and friends fear the worst and plead with the police chief to close down the beach. It isn't until a famous singer is eaten alive during a performance on the pier that the shark hunt begins. Now, the Preppies must work together with the Guidos in order to save the Jersey Shore and its inhabitants from another vicious slaughter.

Horror Vault's take

When underground drilling stirs up a swarm of albino bull sharks off the New Jersey coast, a group of street-tough locals find themselves dismissed by authorities even as bodies start disappearing. Blending Jersey Shore culture with gleefully absurd creature-feature chaos, this TV movie leans hard into its campy premise and never looks back. Rival social cliques must set aside their beef and team up before the summer crowds become an all-you-can-eat buffet for the deep's most vicious predators.
