Black Water

[Hunter Rider]

Synopsis:
Grace, her boyfriend Adam and her younger sister Lee are on holiday in Northern Australia and decide to take a river tour with Jim, their guide. As they drift into a mangrove swamp their boat is suddenly capsized and Jim disappears. Realising they've been attacked by a crocodile, Adam drags Grace to the safety of a tree whilst Lee clings on top of overturned boat. Adam and Grace frantically try to manoeuvre Lee and the boat to the tree but it is firmly stuck. Stranded in the flooded mangrove swamp, the tree holiday makers must work out what to do to survive. They must somehow elude a man eating crocodile, reclaim their overturned boat and get back down river alive. But will they make it?

I've been hearing good things about this one.

 

[Hunter Rider]

From the trailer it certainly looks much better than the recent killer Croc movies, more of a tension based movie than a "Lets put shots in that our budget doesn't cover and so they look like crap" movie

I wonder what parts are true.

Hope its good

I saw this tonight, I thought it was very good, plenty of tension and great atmosphere. the budget is clearly very low but the director gets some great shots that create some adrenalin rush moments. the 3 leads are all good and feel very real, the 2 actresses in particular do a great job with Maeve Dermody as the stand out performance.

8/10

Highly recommended if you like the genre.

holy crap that trailer looks great!

is it being released in the US?

I saw this too a while ago. It was okay. Started out interestingly, but the second act bored me to sleep.

3/5

I'm hoping Rogue is better.
