Deep Sea Horror Movie?

PixelChef · 12 Feb 2013 at 21:09

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good horror movie based deep under the sea? Something like deep sea diving or submarine etc. I'm aware that there are plenty like this but as I understand, most of them are rubbish.

I've always had a fear of the sea, so I think something like this would really get to me.

Sphere is the only one which springs to mind. It's arse.

However, deep rising is good fun, although not strictly within your requirements.

I wouldn't really call it a horror film, but what about The Abyss?

Deep Blue Sea maybe?

try Sanctum or the cave

Agreed on Deep Rising, even though it isn't exactly underwater.

Closer to actual requirements, you want Deep Star Six and Leviathan.

Thanks for the suggestions. Judging by the trailers they all look like they have the potential to be good, however they are mostly low rated on IBDb! I was hoping for a highly rated one, maybe that does not exist

I will watch some of them and judge for myself

Below (2002). Seem to remember it being based on a WWII submarine.

DeepStar Six. Saw that film 100s of times as a kid. Would love to re-watch it now, looks terrible lol

The Abyss?

The Abyss is just too slow. It's moderately redeemed by the special edition, but sadly that's even longer (hard to believe that's possible).

Hilarious, scary monsters, lots of guns and guts. Hot bird.

Another vote for Deep Blue Sea. The 1999 version.

I loved Deep Rising

Leviathan was also fun.
