3/info/shark" target="_blank">Shark 3/info/attack" target="_blank">Attack 3: Megalodon is the second sequel to 3/info/shark" target="_blank">Shark 3/info/attack" target="_blank">Attack, released in 2002 direct-to-video. The film is notable for featuring John Barrowman, who later found fame in popular shows such as Doctor Who and Torchwood. Barrowman has said in an interview on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross that he only did the film for the money (on QI, he claimed it paid for his first house), and was rather embarrassed when a clip from the film was shown. Actress Jenny McShane from the first 3/info/shark" target="_blank">Shark 3/info/attack" target="_blank">Attack film has a starring role, albeit as a completely different character.
When two researchers discover a colossal 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark's tooth off the Mexican coast their worst fears surface - the most menacing beast to ever rule the waters, Megalodon, is still alive and mercilessly feeding on anything that crosses its path. The film is also notable because certain clips from it have become popular internet memes due to the unconvincing special effects, size-changing 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark, and bizarre dialogue.
Plot
A group of divers are installing a power cable at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, when a 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark swims up and kills one of them. Six months later, lifeguard Ben Carpenter and his partner Esai drive out to sea to catch some lobster. While diving, Ben finds a broken power cable with a large 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark tooth stuck in it. After he pulls out the tooth, he is caught by two other divers, and soon goes back to land. Later he posts a description of the tooth online, but he does not find a matching 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark tooth on the internet. Cataline "Cat" Stone (who is named after a cat) gets the message, finds him and looks at the tooth. She believes it to come from a Megalodon.
Ben meets with his friend Chuck Rampart, who tells him he intends to take a look at the broken power cable. Ben tells him about the 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark. Later, the animal kills two people who use a waterslide in the middle of the night. The next day Cat and her partners go out on a boat to find and tag the Megalodon, which is revealed to only be a small one. The 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark shows up and smashes into their boat. Davis films it while Cat hooks a camera onto the sharks dorsal fin. The Megalodon leaves and later kills a man who is playing frisbee on the beach with his dog. Ben finds the man's severed leg and informs Cat about the 3/info/attack" target="_blank">attack; she in turn tells him about the Megalodon, additionally saying that it's a miniature version of the beast. Angry that she lied to him, he leaves.
The next day Ben, Cat, Davis and another partner go out to kill the 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark, which they find out is heading toward a nearby resort. They manage to drive it back out to sea, where it kills several more people. Ben tries to get his boss, Luis Ruiz, to close the beaches. Ruiz says he will, and then tells Ben to kill the Megalodon.
The crew goes back out to sea to kill the 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark for good. Ben stabs the animal, which in turn begins ramming the boat, knocking Davis out cold. Cat goes into the cabin to get her shotgun, but the Megalodon bursts into the boat, trying to eat her. Ben comes to her aid, beating the 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark with a bat. Cat grabs her gun and shoots the 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark, killing it. Afterwards, Esai arrives on his speedboat, when suddenly, the first 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark's enraged mother, a large Megalodon, surfaces and swallows him and his boat whole. The 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark then capsizes the boat, and swallows Davis and his friend in one bite. Ben and Cat are rescued by a helicopter and leave. Ben shows Ruiz the 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark tooth, but his boss still refuses to close the beaches. Later Ben and Cat go over to Chuck's house, loading a torpedo into Chuck's midget submarine.
The next day, Ben and Chuck go down in the submarine. The Megalodon attacks a yacht, slamming into it a couple of times, knocking several people overboard. They escape to two large safety rafts. Ruiz steals a woman's life jacket and jumps off the yacht, only to be swallowed whole by the 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark, as is one of the rafts. Tolley attempts to escape on a jet ski, but he ends up driving straight into the Megalodon's wide open jaw. Chuck then goes into the water and tags the 3/info/shark" target="_blank">shark. Ben eventually launches the torpedo, which succeeds in destroying the creature. Ben swims to the surface with Chuck and climbs into the raft. They all celebrate their success, but elsewhere, another Megalodon is shown swimming near a shore, hinting that there might be more of these prehistoric creatures.
