The hero and this other guy are gunned-down in the end by the cops and gov't hitmen.

One movie that I wouldn't mind seeing rebooted if they changed the ending, maybe do it a bit more ala Capricorn One that somebody is able to beat the government at their own game, and live to tell about it.

I've had the ending of this movie stuck in my mind for a long time without remembering the name. Thank you for reminding me. Great ending.
Also, you yell "barracuda," everyone says "huh?" You yell "shark" and we've got a panic on our hands on 4th of July.

You yell Barracuda, ferocious, huh? what?
Bert Freed was in that-he was Columbo before Peter Falk. Similar kind of appearance, persona.

Murray Hamilton should have had a cameo on it somewhere so he could say: "Ferocious? Huh? What?"

Saw this so long ago I'd forgotten all the subplots mentioned above. I've snorkeled next to barracuddas twice with no problems, I assume they were used as scapefish to cash in on the $ucce$$ of Jaws, although they have attacked people, it's very rare.

Does this have any connection with that 80's music group 'heart'? they had a song named barracuda.

Yeah. Decent enough ecological message flick, more of a conspiracy thriller than a killer animal feature. The only thing I really like about it is the ending.

It should have been that someone in the movie said "Barracuda" and then Murray Hamilton peers around a corner and says: "huh? what?"
A skilled computer guy could probably do an amusing fake with existing footage.

I admit I never heard of this one before, so I caught it on YouTube the other night. Overall, I wasn't really impressed by it. For what few "horror attack" scenes there were, they were not excitingly or suspensefully done; no real thrills or chills. Much of the acting is pretty wooden. The only names I recognized in the cast were Bert Freed and Cliff Emmich.
On the plus side, certain aspects of the story were intriguing, especially the "shady government conspiracy" plotline. And that ending was quite surprising. But as Toasted Cheese accurately pointed out, the horror stuff got left behind, making the overall story disjointed.
