The premise
Based on true events, Grace, her boyfriend Adam, and her younger sister, Lee, are on holiday in Northern Australia when they decide to take a tour down a river. As they drift into a swamp, their boat suddenly capsizes. Stranded in the flooded swamp, the three tourists must figure out what to do to survive as they realize they are being watched through the black water.
Horror Vault's take
When a casual river tour in Australia's remote Northern Territory goes catastrophically wrong, three tourists find themselves stranded in a flooded mangrove swamp with nowhere safe to go. Something large and patient is circling beneath the dark water, and every decision they make could be their last. Drawing from a real incident, the film leans hard into grounded, low-budget terror rather than Hollywood spectacle. The swamp itself becomes as much of a threat as the predator lurking within it.
