Alamo Drafthouse has released a collection of “Jaws” 50th anniversary merchandise, including a shark-shaped popcorn bucket.
JAWS 50th Anniversary Popcorn Bucket – $45
The limited edition bucket was released for pre-order online but is currently sold out. It’s a plastic sculpture of the famous shark’s head, with a mouth that opens and closes to fill with popcorn. It’s approximately 11 inches by 8 inches by 6 inches.
Fans can sign up to be notified if/when the popcorn bucket restocks. It may also be available in person at Alamo Drafthouse locations.
Alamo Drafthouse’s other “Jaws” 50th anniversary merchandise includes a charm, T-shirt, hat, and innertube — perfect for their Jaws On the Water experience. Alamo Drafthouse will also host a Jaws Movie Party and Jaws in Concert, the latter on Martha’s Vineyard, where “Jaws” was filmed.
Universal theme parks will soon have “Jaws” 50th anniversary merchandise, including a shark-shaped sipper. Universal Orlando Annual Passholders can currently pick up a complimentary “Jaws” magnet.
“Jaws” was released in theaters on June 20, 1975, based on the 1974 novel of the same name by Peter Benchley. It was directed by Steven Spielberg and stars Roy Scheider as Chief Martin Brody, Richard Dreyfuss as marine biologist Matt Hooper, and Robert Shaw as shark hunter Quint. It grossed $476.5 million during its initial release, making it the highest-grossing movie of all time up to that point.
