'Piranha' Is the Best 'Jaws' Ripoff, According to Steven Spielberg
Steven Spielberg changed cinema (and his career) forever when he made Jaws. The movie — about a professional shark hunter aiming to take down a great white shark that has been attacking beachgoers — was a major hit in 1975. Together with Star Wars, the film is credited with establishing the modern Hollywood business model, where the focus is on ensuring high box-office returns from action, adventure, horror, and comedy films with high-concept premises. Such films are normally accorded a summer release date, placed in thousands of theaters, and advertised heavily.
