Beneath (2013, dir. Larry Fessenden)

A mismatched group of graduating high-schoolers are trapped on a boat on a lake by a ferocious fish. Fun little Jaws emulation with some mythic touches. Well-sustained given its premise, small scale and its limited resources, and played commendably straight, tho really for genre fans only. Mark Margolis pops up in welcome support.

Here’s the trailer.
