I feel like Open Water doesn’t get enough credit. It’s a solid movie that kept me holding my breath. I’m terrified of the ocean, so that probably plays a part. Haha. I didn’t know much about the real story though. Tom and Eileen Lonergen’s disappearances rocked the Australian scuba industry and inspired a truly scary film in my opinion. What do you think? Did you know about the true story?
