Jaws is one of the greatest horror films of all time and the undisputed champion of ocean terror. After all, who isn't afraid of sharks? The practical effects continue to strike fear into our hearts to this day, looking as fresh and terrifying as the day the film was released. Of course, it'd be criminal not to mention the legendary performance of Robert Shaw as the fisherman Quint and his infamous U.S.S. Indianapolis speech. This film will forever be a horror staple, scaring us out of the water for decades to come.
