Written and directed by Andrew Traucki and David Nerlich, BLACK WATER is a chilling crocodile thriller, inspired by the true story of two friends who were stranded up a tree in a flooded river, whilst the crocodile that had just killed their friend lay in wait below.

A hit at this year's Cannes Film Festival, BLACK WATER is a tense, thrilling adrenaline filled account of a happy family outing that goes horribly wrong. Set in the mangrove swamps of Australia, BLACK WATER features real live crocodiles, used for the first time in a film of this nature, and pitted against them is newcomer Maeve Dermody, who puts in a riveting performance as unlikely heroine Lee.

Grace (Diana Glenn), her boyfriend Adam (Andy Rodoreda) and younger sister Lee decide to take a river tour whilst holidaying in Northern Australia. As they drift into a mangrove swamp their boat is suddenly capsized and Jim, their guide, disappears. Realising they've been attacked by a crocodile, they manage to climb to safety up a tree. Stranded in the flooded mangrove swamp with a hungry croc below, how will they make it out alive?

Two many peopel Survive in this movie. lol

Agreed. It was a low budget film. Which you can tell 'cause they spend so much time in the trees. ;) But it was really tense and worked well. It was really more psychologically frightening than a ton of gore because the majority of the time you couldn't see the croc, nor could the characters.

Note to self: bring an armored mini-sub when fishing in a mangrove forest.

i like silly ass thrillers like this it's two hours of escape from your daily bulls**t @ work or school or whatever you get to laugh @ the silly ass people doing typical silly ass stuff, and you get to yell @ the screen and say obvious stuff like GET OUT OF THE WATER! or dont get into the water! you dumb girl! or etc.. etc.. and there is always a few sexy ass wet t-shirt or topless scenes in these horror thriller flicks. htats enough for me to pay for a typical thriller.
