Jaws 2 is coming to 4K UHD this summer. A fitting release date considering the fact that the film itself takes place over the summer on Amityville Island. Of course, in the sequel we begin to see a little bit of the nuttiness of the franchise. For example, this sequel sees a shark out looking for revenge. An interesting way to take things that pretty much breaks into the realm of sci-fi.
The description for Jaws 2’s 4K UHD disc breaks down like this:
“The horror is far from over as Roy Scheider, Lorraine Gary and Murray Hamilton reprise their iconic roles in Jaws 2. Four years after the great white shark terrorized the small resort of Amity, unsuspecting vacationers begin disappearing in an all-too-familiar fashion. Police Chief Brody (Scheider) finds himself in a race against time when a new shark attacks ten sailboats manned by teenagers, including his own two sons. The same heart-stopping suspense and gripping adventure that enthralled movie audiences throughout the world in Jaws returns in this worthy sequel to the original motion picture classic.“
