Something in the Water (2024 film)
Something in the Water is a 2024 British survival thriller film directed by Hayley Easton Street and written by Cat Clarke.However, the hire boat, which is old and in poor shape, springs a leak and sinks after accidentally hitting reefs, leaving the group stranded in the middle of the sea, miles from land.Night falls as Lizzie and Meg grow tired and hungry, accidentally losing the buoy as a storm appears overhead.In a four-star review, Catherine Bray of The Guardian noted that "audiences hoping for lashings of graphic violence may be disappointed" but that there is "larky tension between likeable characters who find themselves plunged into a nightmare scenario."[7] Donald Clarke of The Irish Times gave the film a negative review, noting that "the characterisation is so thin and the dialogue so clunky that the thing plays more like one of those 1960s surf horrors[...]that invited drive-in audiences to speculate about which beach denizen deserved to get eaten first.
