The Bay

A high-tension, action-packed shark thriller from director Phil Volken (Extortion, Dead Sea). Phil has an excellent record of crafting thrilling, scaled-up indie genre movies on water. His latest, the ocean survival thriller Dead Sea, was theatrically released by Vertical in the USA and hit the top 10 on Netflix in 16 countries when it debuted in September 2024, generating 7 million new viewers per week.    

THE BAY stars Francesca Eastwood (Live Fast, Die Laughing, Old ($90M worldwide box office), The Vault, Netflix’s Final Girl), and Dani Oliveros (CBS series S.W.A.T., Skill House) as American tourists who charter a boat to visit a gorgeous bay, known for its inspirational beauty, off the coast of Thailand. But they quickly find themselves in deep trouble when their boat is rammed by a giant shark and begins sinking, miles from shore. With only one tiny life raft between them and their two local guides, played by Alexander Wraith (Dead Sea, Greystone Park) and Ta’imua (Truth Be Told), and the boat sinking ever deeper into the shark infested waters, they realize that the most dangerous predators may not be those under the surface, but on the boat itself.
