I guess Hammerhead passes for a Father's Day special? Combs saw the
shark/human creature as his son...

forgettable movies like this, Sabato or Lorenzo Lamas?)  But the real
treat for this popcorn movie today has got to be the premiere of
Hammerhead: Shark Frenzy, starring non other than Jeffrey Combs of
Reanimator and Star Trek fame.  Combs is back in the role as a
creepy little scientist with a decidedly strange bent. This time he's
playing with sharks. Here's a bit on the movie:

http://www.scifi.com/hammerhead/
When he began fusing shark and human DNA, his colleagues laughed at
him.  Now his creation is taking his revenge, and they aren't laughing
anymore. The plot revolves around a scientist performing illegal stem
cell research to find a cure for cancer. After the transfer of shark
cells into a human test subject, the ill man gets well again, and it
looks like the treatment was a success. But the experiment goes wrong,
and the test subject transforms into a mutant beast. A monster half
shark half human. The attempt to hush up the experiment and keep the
monster in a safe place fails, leading to a series of horrible events.
The original title for the movie was Sharkman.

I'd stay around and watch it for a laugh, but I I'm more into bats
today. Off to the theatre now...

didn't rise (sink?) to at least the level of enjoyable camp...
