Something in the Water (2024)

Something in the Water (2024)

After surviving a violent attack, a young woman recovers and decides to attend the destination wedding of a close friend on a Caribbean island. A pre-wedding girls' day out turns into a fight for survival when a shark attack strands them miles from shore and with no means to call for help. Something in the Water is a 2024 British survival thriller directed by Hayley Easton Street and starring Hiftu Quasem, Natalie Mitson, and Nicole Rietsu Setsuko. With a primarily female cast, Something in the Water begins as a festive girl movie and then evolves into a cautionary tale about a fight for survival. Unlike most other shark movies, Something in the Water focuses more on the women's struggle to stay together and seek help, with the threat of the shark being one of many other challenges. Unlike many other shark survival movies, Something in the Water isn't as bloody as you would expect and focuses more on the threat of isolation and the will to survive. A much better movie than the other shark movies on my watch list, Something in the Water is a slow-burn survival movie that may not appeal to some, but makes for a great thriller.

Great White Waters

Great White Waters

A businessman who is running drugs through his legitimate company hires a team of mercenaries to recover some lost packages, but the team finds their package in shark-infested waters. Great White Waters is a 2025 action movie produced by The Asylum and directed by  Anthony C Ferrante. Great White Waters is better made than most Asylum films and features a solid plot involving the retrieval of sunken drugs. However, the movie falls apart when the shark attacks turn into the absurd, and you end up with some low-key Sharknado-style silliness. The director Ferrante helmed the first Sharknado movie for The Asylum, so it's no wonder this thriller sinks into the abyss of absurdity when it could have easily been a decent thriller. Angela Cole and Ashton Leigh have great roles, but the goofy ending wastes their efforts.
