Open Water (2003)

SYNOPSIS: Abandoned in the middle of the ocean wile scuba diving, Susan & Daniel (his real name!) realize they are not alone and fight to stay alive... and afloat! Based on TRUE EVENTS!
HIGHS: Ghetto Ben Stiller forgets his mask. Guide: You can't go diving without your mask" Ghetto Ben: Thanks for that, Travis"
LOWS: Home video recording quality - so "Dead Meat" it's scary. No equal opportunity nudity - full boob shot but no dong - Sammy's sad :(
MEMORABLE LINES: Daniel "Damn, those fuckers stung!" Those jellyfish!
MORE HIGHS: Sharks are scary!
NOTES: This is what happens when you make a film with no "Honey Wagon". Combines indy credibility with commercial viability. (They said that!)

Sammy: 3/10
Johnny: 4/10
Sian: 5/10

Sharks scare me more than any other monster. Therefore, by default, this is by far the scariest movie EVER! Second on that list? Deep Blue Sea staring Sameul L. Jackson, Thomas Jane (The Punisher!?!) and LL Cool J (!?!) where DNA altered sharks become bigger, smarter, faster and meaner. In that order
