So this movie is related to Open Water in name only and you're skipping it. It's like saying You hated Jaws and so won't be watching Piranha! Sad. I HATED the 'first' movie too but found this pretty watchable. I don't know how well it stuck to the facts though as I'm not familiar with the story behind it.

I suppose, then, one could argue that everything has been said in fiction and everything else is a variation on a common theme dating back to before Alexander the Great.

If you thought film was a fictional medium, think again. The line between documentary and fiction has been blurred since before you and I were born.

This is an era of post-modernism. Get used to it.

looks a little too SCI FI CHANNEL ORIGINAL MOVIE ish to me, lol

Stephen Colbert is the s**te! This movie unfortunately is s**t. The first one sucked, why bother with this one?!

What a terrible cover.  It reeks of low budget dreck.  I saw the first one and expected to enjoy it, but found it quite boring and by the time the movie's suspense kicked up, it ended abruptly.  I know some really liked it, but it just didn't do it for me. Not gonna even bother with this one.  Here's hoping the Steve Alten penned "Meg" (directed by <unfortunately> Jan De Bont) will fill in the void of great killer shark movies that we have been experiencing since the cheesy, albeit very enjoyable "Deep Blue Sea" surfaced.  Anyone else ever read those books?  I'd highly reccomend em', they are exciting reads.

You're forgetting the 4th reason: buying it out of spite for threads like this.

Like someone else said, this isn't a sequel, it's an entirely seperate film which has just been renamed. As a result it may not do as well as what it should because people (many on here) believe that this is a sequel.

I enjoyed Open Water so I'll give this a shot.

Based on the short story "Adrift" by Koji Suzuki, in the Novel "Dark Water".

This isn't even a sequel really, it was a German film retitled to cash in on that forgettable film.

*yawn*

Pass. Isn't the only reason it's getting a DTV release is because it stars Eric Dane (or "Dr. McSteamy" for those "Grey's Anatomy" fans). And it just seems like a pointless retread of the first film anyway.
