The Great White Southern Sardine

With filmmakers desperately trying to think of a way to cash in on the phenomenal success of Jaws, they have discarded, reluctantly and one by one, the ideas of using a whale, an octopus, an unsmiling dolphin, a hunchbacked herring, a ghetto tadpole, an 18-foot tapeworm, and a gap-toothed rat with water wings.

Finally Wonder Brothers (“If It’s a Good Picture, It’s a Wonder!”), smartly realizing that today the gimmick needed is politics, has come up with a thriller about a Great White Southern Sardine, named the Primary Moby, who, attracting swimmers with his dazzling smile, either swallows them whole or smiles them to death.
