Storyline

The Nereus is a fifty-year-old Ice Breaker, salvaged by an idealistic crew on a mission to catch illegal fisherman. On chase, the crew find themselves well off-course and bearing down on a body mysteriously floating in the middle of the Devil’s Sea. Superstitious or not, the team soon discovers they’ve rescued a deadly creature feeding on the lifeless body. Their new mission—kill or be killed and preferably before they hit land.

    A crew of women stuck on the high seas with some thing

    An icebreaker vessel in the far Pacific with an all-female crew rescue a stranger from the ocean and are then forced to fight for their lives against an unknown enemy while a massive storm looms.

    Dead in the Water (2018) is a TV thriller/horror that combines Dead Calm (1989) with Alien/Aliens (1979/1986) and maybe a little bit o Ghost Ship (2002). While its not as good as any of those flicks, its not bad. The movie was shot on an actual vessel, a small one, but the surrounding sea is cartoonish CGI and its too obvious.

    If you can get past that, the actresses are all convincing and the script builds some suspense as the truth about whats really going on is slowly unveiled....

    I love me a boat horror, but I've seen this exact thing done so much better, so many times, that I just couldn't bring myself to find any real joy in Dead in the Water.

    Final rating: - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product.
