Shark Movie Buffs Will Love These Posters

Shark movies have thrilled and terrified audiences for decades, from the iconic suspense of Jaws to the jaw-dropping action in The Meg. If you’re a shark movie buff looking to add a touch of nostalgia and cinematic excellence to your home, Displate’s extensive range of metal posters will help you make waves in your home decor. 

With eye-catching designs and incredibly sharp prints, these posters perfectly capture the thrill and excitement of your favorite shark movies. Let’s dive in and explore posters you are sure to love.

1. Jaws (1975 – 1987)– The Classic That Started It All

Let’s kick off the list with the ultimate shark movie that set the standard for the genre – Jaws. This film didn’t just redefine the shark movie genre; it became a cultural phenomenon, influencing films for decades to come. The film’s success led to three sequels, each building on the legacy of the original.

The iconic theme music, memorable quotes, and heart-pounding tension turned Jaws into not just a movie, but a cult classic. 

2. The Meg & The Meg 2 (2018&2023)

Now this next one is perfect for any shark movie buff looking to showcase their love for jaw-dropping, larger-than-life action. 

The Meg (2018) introduced us to the colossal, prehistoric Megalodon, a shark unlike anything the genre had seen before – making even the largest great whites look like goldfish 

A poster from this series will bring a splash of epic proportions to your wall, perfect for fans who love the intense, action-packed side of shark films, a perfect addition to the wall of any shark buff, whether it be a games room, cinema room or even a living room area.

3. Sharknado (2013)

This 2013 cult classic gave us a whole new type of shark terror—a tornado filled with man-eating sharks that wreaks havoc on land. And the Sharknado poster is just as chaotic as the movie itself; it perfectly captures the absurd, high-energy nature of the film. 

The bold design, with the shark in front of a stormy backdrop, screams disaster movie with a comedic twist. It’s a must-have for any shark movie buff who loves a blend of action, chaos, and humor. 

4. 47 Meters Down (2017)

This 2017 film takes shark horror to terrifying depths—literally. 47 Meters Down is a classic shark movie (yes we’ve said pretty much all of them are classics, but it’s true right?). 

Perfectly capturing the eeriness of deep water with the relentless fear of something lurking below, this poster captures the very essence of what makes shark movies so captivating.

5. The Shallows (2016)

If you’re looking for a more intense, survival-focused shark movie, The Shallows is a great pick, plus, it stars the one and only Blake Lively. 

The poster is simple but effective, showing the lone surfer facing off against the massive predator in crystal-clear blue waters. Not only does it capture the movie’s suspense and drama, but it also adds an adrenaline-charged vibe to the space of your choosing.

6. Open Water (2003)

Let’s go back to the early 2000s for this next one. Unlike the other movies, Open Water is the ultimate survival horror film that is actually based on a true story, making it all the more terrifying.

The movie’s slow-burn suspense sets it apart from some of the other shark movies, where the character is stranded in the middle of the ocean after a scuba diving trip goes wrong. 

The poster reflects that sense of helplessness, with the character surrounded by nothing but water – and the threat of sharks. Its minimalist design speaks to the film’s raw, unsettling horror, making it a chilling addition to any collection.

7. Shark Night (2011)

For fans of shark horror mixed with summer fun, Shark Night delivers all the bloody thrills you’d expect. If you’re a fan of creature-feature horror and love the mix of thrills, suspense, and a touch of summer nostalgia, a Shark Night poster is the perfect addition to your space. 

It’s more than just a piece of art, it’s a conversation starter perfect for any entrance hall, dining room or even bedroom, if that’s your thing.

8. Shark Tale (2004)

While most shark movies are filled with thrills and terror, Shark Tale brings a fun, family-friendly twist to the genre, and is one of our posters that really is perfect for any age.

This colorful and vibrant Shark Tale movie poster features a famous quote from the movie, and is a real asset to any young shark buff’s bedroom or gaming space – whether it’s an upcoming birthday or simply time to redecorate, it’s perfect for those who love sharks but aren’t necessarily looking for scares.

9. Sharktopus (2010)

Last but not least on our list, for those of you who thought Sharknado was wild, wait until you dive into Sharktopus. This 2010 movie combines two of nature’s most fearsome creatures—sharks and octopuses—into one, over-the-top monster. 

Lucky for you (or not, if you prefer the gore and suspense of a classic shark movie cover), this poster is a more playful and bold design version of the film. This kind of poster is perfect for collectors who love shark movies with a fun, tongue-in-cheek style, or for anyone looking to add a pop of color and cinematic nostalgia to their space.
