2007 ·1h 39m · ★ 6.3 (751)

When a group of tourists stumble into the remote Australian river territory of an enormous crocodile, the deadly creature traps them on a tiny mud island with the tide quickly rising and darkness descending. As the hungry predator closes in, they must fight for survival against all odds.

Why it matters

A tense eco-horror thriller that pits humans against Australia’s deadliest predator in claustrophobic riverine isolation.

  • Greg McLean (Wolf Creek) channels his knack for visceral survival terror into a sun-scorched nightmare of crocodilian menace.
  • Practical effects and animatronics bring the titular rogue croc to terrifying life—no CGI crutches here.
  • Anchored by solid performances from Michael Vartan and Radha Mitchell, balancing suspense with grounded human drama.
  • For fans of nature-run-amok horror and the slow-burn dread of being trapped with a remorseless apex predator.
