Bloody Disgusting readers know we’re a sucker for any shark-themed genre movie, which is why we’re stoked for The Requin, which stars both Alicia Silverstone (Clueless, The Lodge) and James Tupper (“Big Little Lies”) as a stranded couple being stalked by a Great White.
In the film written and directed by Le-Van Kiet (Furie)…
“There’s terror in paradise when Jaelyn (Silverstone) and Kyle (Tupper) arrive at a remote seaside villa in Vietnam for a romantic getaway. A torrential storm descends, reducing the villa to little more than a raft and sweeping the young couple out to sea.
“Suddenly, another danger appears: a school of great white sharks. With her injured husband watching helplessly, Jaelyn must battle the deadly predators alone in this tense thriller that rides an unrelenting wave of fear.”
Saban Films shares an awesome poster and official trailer for the film with news that it will swim into limited theaters and VOD platforms on January 28, 2022.
As for the trailer, it looks like a cheap rehash of Chris Kentis’ excellent Open Water, not that I don’t welcome any shark-themed survival horror into my life. Check it…
