A monster movie from Creator/TheAsylum, ''Two-Headed Shark Attack'' is the first film in a series (including ''Film/FiveHeadedSharkAttack'') where mutant aberration giant sharks with multiple heads and ramped up aggression stalk ocean-faring groups of bystanders.
!!Tropes in the movie:
* ActionGirl: Kate starts out just willing to place herself in the vicinity of the shark to help people, but during the final showdown, she swims between the two shark heads so that neither can get her and then stabs the shark several times with a piece of wood.
* BrainyBrunette: The three most intelligent students, Kirsten, Dana, and Paul, all have dark hair. Dana and Paul seem to know the most about aquatic wildlife, while Kirsten is the most level-headed about planning how to survive the shark attack.
* DirtyCoward: Cole never hesitates to put distance between himself and the shark, even when it means putting his friends in worse danger than they were before (like driving off in a boat that someone else was going to use to escape danger).
* HappilyMarried: Professor and Mrs. Banish enjoy working together, look out for each other when things get dangerous, and [[spoiler:have a peaceful LastKiss as they wait for the approaching shark to devour them.]]
* ThoseTwoGuys: The two constantly frustrated yacht crewmen who speak little English share most of their plot role and screen time.
