Who is the first victim of the shark in the film?
In the wake of the tragic death of his father, Martin Brody, Sean, portrayed by Michael Caine, meets a devastating fate while attempting to clear a log from a buoy along the tranquil shores of Amity Island. This shocking incident occurs during the buoyant Christmas season, where the joyful cheer of the holidays overshadows the cries for help—a haunting contrast that intensifies the mournful silence. In the chaos, Sean’s boat is wrecked, and his lifeless body is pulled into the depths by an unseen predator, further deepening the island’s sorrow.
Amidst the community’s grief, Martin’s elder son Michael, played by Lance Guest, arrives with his family—his wife Carla and their adorable five-year-old daughter Thea. Coming from the Bahamas where he works as a marine biologist, Michael hesitates to suspend his vital research, much to the dismay of Ellen, Martin’s widow. However, Thea’s endearing nature gradually wins Ellen over, leading her to decide to join Michael and Carla in the sun-kissed paradise of the Bahamas for some much-needed healing.
The warmth of island hospitality soon turns into an unexpected bond between Ellen and Hoagie, the charismatic pilot who ferries them back to Amity for the festive season. As they immerse themselves in holiday festivities, Michael introduces Ellen to his companions Jake, played by Mario Van Peebles, and Louisa, Jake’s wife. This burgeoning sense of camaraderie offers them a means to cope with their recent loss, stitching together the fragmented pieces of their lives.
Sadly, the tranquility doesn’t last long. Just days into their Christmas celebration, Michael’s crew, including Jake, stumbles upon an uninvited guest: a great white shark, reminiscent of the very creature that had haunted Amity in the past. Their discovery stirs a mix of fascination and concern, especially for Jake, who sees it as an opportunity for groundbreaking research in the warm Bahamian waters. Michael, however, is acutely aware of the potential risks and begs Jake to keep their findings under wraps from Ellen.
As darkness envelops the island, Ellen begins experiencing vivid nightmares of a shark attack, her instincts telling her that danger is lurking close by. The plot thickens when Jake decides to attach a tracking device to the shark, using bait to draw it in while inserting the tracker with meticulous care. The following day unfolds into a close call as Michael barely escapes a surprise attack by the shark while navigating the eerie ruins of a sunken vessel.
Meanwhile, Thea is off exploring with her friend Margaret and her mother Carla when their cheerful outing is heartlessly interrupted by the sudden appearance of the shark. As Carla flaunts her latest artistic creation, the sinister predator strikes without warning, claiming Margaret’s mother in a harrowing assault. With Thea out of harm’s way, Ellen courageously embarks on a mission to confront the beast, her fierce maternal instincts compelling her to protect her family.
In a shocking revelation, Michael learns from Carla that he was aware of the shark’s presence all along, causing his emotions to boil over like a potent stew left on the back burner. This discovery propels Michael and Jake into action, coordinating with Hoagie for an aerial endeavor to locate Ellen and subdue the aquatic menace wreaking havoc on their lives.
As they scour the shimmering waters, Hoagie shares Ellen’s living nightmare—that the very shark that claimed Sean is now hunting her family. Upon finding Ellen, Hoagie expertly maneuvers the plane to the water’s surface, instructing Michael and Jake to undertake a daring swim to her rescue.
However, their efforts are quickly dashed as the shark drags the plane into the depths, taking Hoagie with it. Stricken with grief, Michael and Jake labor to construct an electrical device intended to disorient the fearsome creature. When Jake readies himself for a face-off with the monster, the shark retaliates in a frenzied assault, its powerful jaws mere inches from him.
Just in the nick of time, Jake activates the device, thrusting it into the shark’s maw as the creature drags him down into the abyss. Utilizing the electrical impulses, Michael delivers a desperate onslaught intended to inhibit the beast’s aggression. The shark writhes in pain, its body violently emerging from the water in a frantic display of agony.
Amid the chaos, Ellen takes control of her sailboat, her mind racing through visions of the horrors she faced when the shark targeted Thea, and the tragedy befalling Sean. In a gripping culmination, she seizes her moment of vengeance; ramming her boat’s damaged bowsprit deep into the shark’s tender flesh.
Originally, the film depicted the shark succumbing to its fatal wounds and disappearing beneath the waves—a chilling reminder of its brutal reign. However, the international and DVD versions reveal a more explosive finale, where the shark’s mangled body plunges to the ocean floor in a climactic spectacle.
In this alternate conclusion, Michael grapples with the cries of Jake, who is gravely injured yet clinging to survival. As Hoagie heroically returns Ellen to the shores of Amity, the surviving characters are left to contend with the heavy emotional toll their underwater ordeal has exacted on their lives.
