Picture the sun setting on the bay as boaters and kayakers gather together for a fun filled evening while watching an outdoor movie with friends and family. The feature film was “Jaws.” They, like most of us, have seen this movie time and again, but it seemed like fun to watch once again. Everything was perfect until the sun went down and these guests found themselves right in the middle of the action. It was the scariest outdoor movie experience ever.
The stage was set for this unexpected turn of events by placing an inflatable outdoor movie screen on a helicopter barge. The barge was placed in the bay where all the boaters could get a good view of the main attraction. The other outdoor cinema equipment was boated out into the water along with a generator. The plan was to show the movie “Jaws” to all of the people who were coming. The outcome of the evening just goes to show how the location of an outdoor movie can make all the difference in the world.
As the day was coming to a close, boaters and kayakers began to arrive. Each was positioning themselves where they would be able to kick back and relax while enjoying the show. All were encouraged to have a great time and enjoy the water while watching. The sunset was beautiful as the theme song from “Jaws” began to play across the bay. The music grew in intensity and rumbled across the water in an eerie sort of way that truly began to set the scene for what guests could expect.
Watching this well-known film took on a whole new meaning that evening. As everyone watched the movie unfold, they became very aware of being in the water themselves. The music continued to set everyone just a bit on edge. As the movie played on, it finally reached the intense shark scenes that it is so famous for. That’s when the thrills began.
A swimmer strapped on a shark fin while no one was paying attention and got in the water. They waited patiently for those terrifying scenes where Jaws comes exploding up out of the water towards the characters in film. This is when the swimmer made his rounds, scaring unsuspecting boaters as they noticed the fin circling about. Guests were left with the feeling that they had just been thrown into the movie itself.
As with any good scare, all were left laughing at themselves for how they reacted to the stunt. Friends and family teased one another, and everyone had a whopping tail to tell when they got home. By the end of the evening, all agreed that this was the scariest outdoor movie experience ever.
