Friends exploring a remote cave system in Northern Australia find themselves threatened by a ferocious crocodile. An adventure-seeking couple, Eric and Jennifer convince their friends Yolanda and Viktor to explore an uncharted cave system in far North Australia, with the help of the unpredictable Cash as their guide. The five spelunkers abseil into the deep mouth of the cave as a storm approaches, none are worried by the forecast, knowing they'll be safe underground. But when the caves are flooded, they become disoriented and tensions rise as they struggle to find a way out. But dank air and rising water are the least of their worries as they discover the storm has also brought in a hungry and territorial predator. (Universal Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)

Pleasantly above-par for the standards of the genre. Fast pace, effectively used settings, solid characters and a firm director’s hand in the approach to the predators, which never become ridiculous or unnatural. It doesn’t matter in the end who will survive (we know it anyway) and the last 10 minutes didn’t really need to be there, but the tension is effective, the deaths demand the imagination of the viewer and the last-second escapes make your stomach turn. You can’t ask anything else from it. 60%
