Open Water	comment	Open Water is a 2003 survival horror thriller film written and directed by Chris Kentis, starring Daniel Travis and Blanchard Ryan.Daniel Kintner and Susan Watkins (Travis and Ryan) are a thirtysomething couple who go on a scuba-diving vacation to help improve their relationship, as their busy lives do not allow them to spend much time together. However, an accidental miscount leads to the crew of their boat leaving without them while they're out on a dive. The couple's realization that they've been stranded at sea gives way to the even more horrifying realization that they're not alone in the water, which is filled with sharks.The film is based on the true story of a married couple who were lost at sea under the same circumstances.A sequel, Adrift, was released in 2006. It was not initially intended to be a sequel, but the similar premise gave them the idea that changing the title would be more marketable.A second sequel, Open Water 3: Cage Dive, came out in 2017.
