Om den här filmen

If an inexplicable feeling of dread overcomes you . . . don't ignore it. The residents of this small coastal town do and regret it when a freak tsunami traps a group of them inside a supermarket, where they soon find they are not alone. Their only company, besides each other, is a pack of hungry killer sharks. Starring Alex Russel (Chronicle, Wasted on the Young), Xavier Samuel (Anonymous, Twighlight: Eclipse), Phoebe Tonkin (TV's The Secret Circle), and Julian McMahon (TV's Nip/Tuck, Red).

At first, you may not think mutch of BAIT; with it's cliche character tropes, an 'Asylum'-like scenerio, and a low budget that would normally add up to a crappy movie. However, BAIT, was obviously made with passion and enthusiasm and plays to it's disadvantages. The cast and crew knew what sort of movie they were making and created a fun creature feature that is genuinely enjoyable. They use their FX budget wisely, balancing the CG and practical FX so as not to destroy the shark's believability and the story's tension. Sit back and just go on auto pilot for a couple of hours and enjoy BAIT.

This is actually something that might happen in real life. Well except some crazy man parts, but world is a crazy place. I like how the sharks look realistic and how they know so much about sharks too. I love the plot twist, rollercoaster of emotions, and that it kept me at the edge of my seat. I want to watch this again.

It's not Hollywood grade. It doesn't have that refined spit and polish. But it's well shot, good action, fast paced. Of course it has some bad CG moments but that comes with the territory. Fun movie! If you like these sorts of films, you'll enjoy BAIT! :-)
