Honestly, I wasn't expecting much at all when I sat down to watch "The Reef" at what I like to call "Ye Olde Online Movie Theater." I figured there'd be a few unintentional laughs, quite a bit of gore and bad cgi plus, hopefully, a few fair maidens to ogle as I drifted off to sleep.
Boy, was I in for a hell of a shock! This is honestly one of the most intensely scary movies I've ever experienced. In fact, at several points I was literally vise-gripped onto the edges of my LazyBoy as if it was some tiny life raft barely keeping me afloat in deep, dark Pacific waters.
Think of all the times you've been in the ocean and wondered, "What's that large, dark shape coming towards me?" Is it seaweed, a big school of bait-fish, or something much more sinister? Ever get a serious chill up and down your spine during one of those moments? If so, this movie will be perfect for you if you can handle your fear.
This is, without a doubt, even with a few flaws here and there, the 2nd best shark movie ever made. In some ways, it's even better than Jaws.
It certainly didn't need any theme music at all to help create feelings of terror inside me as I watched The Reef and I don't scare easily.
