How can we not end this list with the classic of classics? Released in 1975, Jaws is considered to be one of the most popular films in the world. as the very first blockbuster in the history of cinema. Realized by Steven Spielberg, this is what it is all about. of his third feature film. An undeniable classic of horror, the feature film hastraumatized a whole generation of ocean spectators. High-end entertainment, Spielberg has fun with the spectator's nerves and imagination via a first part full of suggestion, playing on the primary fear of the unknown and absence. The shark never appears, the threat remains abstract, making it dangerous because it is universal, global and above all invisible. Then the second part is a surge of controlled action and violence, but which has inevitably become a little old-fashioned. because of a cardboard shark.
