‘Deep Blue Sea 2’ Is Now Filming

1999’s shark film Deep Blue Sea has always been one of my favorites, in fact it made on our 15 Great Films Set In Water list earlier this week. Back in 2009 we got our hopes up Warner Bros. announced that that a sequel was in the works, only to have it stall. With the recent success of films like The Shallows and 47 Meters down, shark movies are on the radar. Now, news has come that Deep Blue Sea 2 has swam into production and is currently filming in Cape Town. Darin Scott, behind films like Tales from the Hood, Menace to Society II, and From a Whisper to a Scream, will be in the director’s chair. Aquaman’s Michael Beach is set to co-star.

Dive Into These 15 Aquatic Horror Films Set in Water

It’s that time of year again; the temperature is rising, and thoughts of waves, sandy beaches, exotic locations, or the local watering hole are filling your daydreams. While the water looks calm and inviting, it would serve you well to remember that just below the surface, nightmares are lurking. And we have a list of great films to remind you of that. Jaws (1975) When a giant great white begins to attack people in the waters of a small island community, the police chief, a marine biologist, and a grizzled fisherman set out to hunt it down. Jaws is a true classic that will never be outdone (that’s my opinion). Recently a deleted clip, deemed to graphic for the film, has surfaced. You can watch it HERE. The Shallows (2016) The Shallows stars Blake Lively as Nancy, a woman surfing alone on a secluded beach when she is attacked by a Great White and stranded just a short distance from

Dive Into The New Shark Filled Trailer For 47 METERS DOWN

With summer approaching, many people’s thoughts are drifting to warm sandy beaches and the cool waters of the ocean. For some, thoughts of what might be lurking before the surface, sharp toothed, hungry sharks, are there in the backs of their minds. Of course, the season wouldn’t be complete with a summertime shark film to bring those fears to life, like the upcoming shark thriller 47 Meters Down (aka In the Deep) which has a brand new trailer. Mandy Moore and Clair Holt star as sisters cage-diving. When their boat leaves them stranded in an observation cage, they are trapped on the ocean floor, surrounded by Great Whites.
