Is there such a thing as a 'prehistoric goblin shark'?

Yes. Although the species dates from 125 million years ago, Goblin sharks (Mitsukurina owstoni)) are still found in ocean waters around the world. A poorly understood species, goblin sharks seem to be slow-moving bottom-dwellers, feeding mainly on fish, mollusks, and crustaceans, unlike the ferocious, man-eating goblin sharks depicted in the movie. A photo of a goblin shark can be seen here.

What is 'Malibu Shark Attack' about?

When an underwater earthquake releases prehistoric goblin sharks and sets off a giant tsunami along the southern California coast, Malibu Beach lifeguards Doug (Remi Broadway), Heather (Peta Wilson), Pete Chavez (Warren Christie), Barb (Sonya Salomaa) and her boyfriend Bryan (Nicholas G. Cooper), plus ditzy community-service teen Jenny (Chelan Simmons) are stranded in a half-submerged lifeguard station hundred of yards from where a crew of four rival construction workers Colin Smith (Jeff Gannon), George (Mungo McKay) (beard), Karl (Evert McQueen), and Nancy (Renee Bowen) are stranded in a flooded house. With ferocious goblin sharks circling around them, lifeguards and construction workers have to band together to kill the sharks in order to get to dry land.
