WATCH LIST

SHARK WEEK

Sink your teeth into this week's Top V, where danger swims just beneath the surface. From animated antics to true-story terror, these annual Shark Week picks offer a mix of camp, suspense, and unexpected depth.

1. Capsized: Blood in the Water (David R. Ellis)

   Based on a true survival story, this thriller drops you into open water with a stranded crew and a circling predator. Equal parts harrowing and haunting, it's a survival-at-sea horror, with no land in sight.

2. Shark Tale (Rob Letterman)

   A fishy twist on mob comedies, this animated cult classic dives into an underwater world full of flashy visuals and hilarious one-liners. A star-studded cast - Will Smith, Angelina Jolie, and Jack Black deliver a tale that’s more fun than fear.

3. The Shallows (Jaume Collet-Serra)

   Blake Lively vs. great white! This thriller proves that survival is a solo sport. Visually stunning and pulse-pounding, it’s a modern, high-stakes take on (wo)man vs. nature.

4. Shark Night (David R. Ellis)

   This blood-soaked, B-movie slasher meets shark horror flick is pure 00's nostalgia. College friends, a lake house, and genetically modified sharks!

5. Under Paris (Xavier Gens)

   When a massive shark infiltrates the Seine River before a major triathlon, all hell breaks loose in this French eco-horror. Part creature feature, part climate warning, it's a stylish modern spin on the shark genre.
