Stay clear of the water this summer as yet another shark horror movie is on the way, but this one looks a little too familiar

You may want to stay out of the water this summer, as yet another shark horror movie is on the way, and this one looks simply terrifying.

Netflix has shared the first look at the upcoming shark horror movie Thrash. The images, posted on Twitter by the streamer, show Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor in the water screaming and watching a shark swim towards her, as well as stars Djimon Hounsou and Whitney Peak sheltering from destruction in the remaining stills.

Directed by Dead Snow’s Tommy Wirkola, the synopsis for Thrash reads, “When a Category 5 hurricane decimates a coastal town, the storm surge brings devastation, chaos and something far more frightening: hungry sharks.” The cast also includes Alyla Browne, Stacy Clausen, Costa D’Angelo, Amy Mathews, and more.

If that description sounds a little familiar, that is because it practically follows the same premise as 2019 horror thriller Crawl but swaps the swimming beasts. Starring Kaya Scodelario, Crawl follows a woman and her father who get trapped during a hurricane and face a giant Crocodile that has broken into their house, amongst the floodwater. It also bears resemblance to the 2012 shark movie Bait, which sees a flood invite sharks into an Australian supermarket.

Thrash has had quite the journey to the streamer. The film was first titled Beneath the Storm and was set for a theatrical release by Sony. Then, the title was changed to Shiver until it was pulled from Sony’s theatrical release schedule altogether. However, luckily, Netflix then picked it up and called it Thrash.

However, Thrash has some competition this year, as Deep Blue Sea director Renny Harlin’s upcoming shark movie Deep Water will hit screens in May, plus, Netflix has a sequel to its hit 2024 fin-tastic movie Under Paris in the works, too. There is also an orca-led horror flick coming soon titled Killer Whale, which will see the ocean’s other mighty fish get a taste for human flesh.

Thrash hits Netflix on April 10. For more, check out our list of the best shark movies, or keep up to date with upcoming horror movies heading your way.
