Rating: R Stars: Hassie Harrison, Jai Courtney, Josh Heuston, Ella Newton, Rob Carlton, Liam Greinke Writer: Nick Lepard Director: Sean Byrne Distributor: IFC/Shudder Release Date: June 6, 2025 (theatrical) There are now enough criminals-obsessed-with-sharks movies for these to qualify as a moderately well-populated subgenre. DANGEROUS ANIMALS emerges at the top of this particular food chain – and even if it were just a serial killer movie, it would still be good. We are introduced to Tucker’s Encounters battered but functioning dive cage boat, moored off a beach on the Australian Gold Coast, the big city in the background. Heather (Ella […]Read On »

Movie Review: 47 METERS DOWN

47 METERS DOWN poster | ©2017 Dimension Films

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Claire Holt, Mandy Moore, Matthew Modine Writers: Johannes Roberts & Ernest Riera Director: Johannes Roberts Distributor: Dimension Films/Entertainment Studios Motion Pictures Release Date: June 16, 2017  The original JAWS is rightly a classic, but since then audiences have learned to be wary of shark movies. SHARKNADO gonzo parody aside, they can be a cheesy bunch, with 2004’s destabilizing OPEN WATER a rare exception. Well, surprise. 47 METERS DOWN has most of the makings of a first-rate horror movie: a plausible set-up, multiple sources of jeopardy, an environment that’s terrifying all on its own, ace special effects and […]Read On »
