Great white sharks attack a fishing charter, ramming a hole in the ship’s hull. With the shoreline miles away, those aboard are forced to fight for their lives before they are either drowned or eaten alive.

Why it matters

A tense survival thriller that plunges into primal fear with relentless great white shark attacks and claustrophobic isolation at sea.

  • Practical shark effects and underwater sequences deliver tangible dread beyond CG spectacle.
  • Fans of creature features and sea-bound horror will appreciate the tight setting and escalating peril.
  • The film’s lean runtime keeps tension taut, though character development takes a backseat to thrills.
  • For viewers craving a straightforward man-versus-nature nightmare, this one bites hard and fast.
