With summer upon us, we can expect to see at least a few killer shark flicks swimming our way in the near future, most notably Jaume Collet-Serra’s The Shallows. And speaking of that film, its original title has been adopted by the shark attack flick formerly known as 47 Meters Down, which has just been renamed In the Deep.
Via Dimension Films, Anchor Bay, and Starz Digital, it will hit DVD, Digital HD, and On Demand August 2.
The underwater thriller stars Mandy Moore, Matthew Modine, and Claire Holt.
Synopsis:
Twenty-something sisters Kate and Lisa are gorgeous, fun-loving, and ready for the holiday of a lifetime in Mexico. When the opportunity to go cage diving to view Great White sharks presents itself, thrill-seeking Kate jumps at the chance while Lisa takes some convincing. After some not so gentle persuading, Lisa finally agrees, and the girls soon find themselves two hours off the coast of Huatulco and about to come face to face with nature’s fiercest predator.
But what should have been the trip to end all trips soon becomes a living nightmare when the shark cage breaks free from their boat, sinks, and they find themselves trapped at the bottom of the ocean. With less than an hour of oxygen left in their tanks, they must somehow work out how to get back to the boat above them through 47 meters of shark-infested waters.
