47 Meters Down

What with The Meg 2 (Electric Boogaloo) coming out, as well as another Shark Week series of specials surfacing this August, I'm reminded of my own favorite shark movies, one of which is 47 Meters Down: Uncaged.

Uncaged is the sequel to the original 47 Meters Down, which is pretty good.

But while the original had two barefoot women scuba divers, Uncaged has a far larger group of them, and they all go diving in their bare feet as well.

But Uncaged also has a better, more exotic storyline, with these young BF women diving in an underwater cave system that contains the ruins of a Mayan city.

They also have to contend with these terrifying sharks that inhabit the submerged cave system. Living as they do in the dark, these sharks have evolved into albinos with milky white eyes.

And the sight of these snow-white sharks emerging from the murky gloom is pure nightmare fuel.

So yeah, The Meg is a lot of fun--I enjoyed the first film, at least. But give me movies with barefoot women battling sharks every time.
