oceanic horror is a terrifying sub-genre of horror, but we rarely see any movies set in and around the ocean. why is that?

i’m so glad someone is talking about this!!

[@TummisYT]

It’s good to see fellow people of culture!

[@chepbilal9030]

47 meters down is also a pretty rad ocean movie

[@chepbilal9030]

stay away from the sequel tho

I never watched that one, I’ll check it out

[@tired_crusader901]

[@TummisYT]

[@rbdaviesTB3]

@@TummisYT It's one of those movies where people either hate it or love it - I really appreciate it for doing a lot on a comparatively small budget, setting up a creepy and moody atmosphere, and putting together a well-constructed and polished product.
All that said, I really hope you enjoy it! Another movie I would recommend that came out in the same year is 'Below', which is basically a ghost story set in the compellingly creepy environment of a submarine during the Battle of the Atlantic, leaving the cast struck between the tangible danger of a with a German destroyer stalking them on the surface, and the unknown terror of a presence that seems to have taken up residence in their sub...

@@rbdaviesTB3ohh Below sounds cool too. I’ve noticed that if a movie is considered divisive I’ll probably like it

[@rbdaviesTB3]

Bro You should check out "life of pi" I haven't watched it for so long but I remember it was beautiful
