In 1975, Jaws forever changed the way we look at the ocean and kept many people from getting into water of any kind for quite some time. The story is rather self-explanatory, but it goes something like this for the uninitiated: When a young woman is killed by a shark while skinny-dipping near the New England tourist town of Amity Island, police chief Martin Brody wants to close the beaches, but mayor Larry Vaughn overrules him, fearing that the loss of tourist revenue will cripple the town. Ichthyologist Matt Hooper and grizzled ship captain Quint offer to help Brody capture the killer beast, and the trio engages in an epic battle of man vs. nature.
