Plot
A group of wakeboarders is attacked and devoured by a two-headed great white shark. Meanwhile, Sea King, a Semester at Sea-like ship led by Professor Franklin Babish and his wife Anne, hits a dead shark, which becomes lodged in the boat's propeller, damaging the hull and causing the boat to take on water. The two-headed shark then attacks the boat and breaks the radio antenna, preventing the ship co-captain Laura from summoning help. Babish and the students use a dinghy to take shelter on a nearby deserted atoll, while Anne remains on the Sea King with Laura and the ship's crew, Han and Dikilla. Laura is ripped in half by the two-headed shark.
Meanwhile, Babish and the students explore the atoll. Assembling in an abandoned fishing village, they search for scrap metal to repair the boat.
