Great White Swipes!





The movie Jaws was a blockbuster! It left a mark on our culture which resonates well into the modern day. Here are some swipes of the classic poster art imagery.





The satire mags of the day had a good time spoofing the image.




The movie Piranha and its spawn did not forget their point of origin.


The movie Tremors was originally titled Landshark and that inspiration is evident in the poster.







Even comics find a way to remember the great white shark.
