It may not be the one you expect, but it's one that will stay with you.
The Big Picture No genre of film gets a reaction from its audience quite like horror does. Whether it's a wholly original story or based on some tragedy from real life, horror makes us jump, cover our eyes, and even laugh as a way to let go of that anxious tension. When we leave the theater or turn off the TV, however, we usually feel some sort of release, because what horror does better than even comedies do is give us a way to work through our own troubles and leave them behind.
'Open Water' Is Based on the Case of a Real-Life Couple To understand Open Water, you must first understand where it came from. The Chris Kentis film is based on the last days of Americans Tom and Eileen Lonergan. In 1998, the couple took a trip to Australia for what should have been one of the best holidays of their lives. The plan was to go scuba diving and explore the Great Barrier Reef, one of the most beautiful sights in our world. They never returned home.
'Open Water' Haunts Audiences With the Unknown Five years later came a film about those events titled Open Water. It doesn't aim to be one-hundred percent accurate. For one, the names of the couple are changed, going from a married couple to a boyfriend and girlfriend named Daniel Kintner and Susan Watkins . Like the Lonergans, they go scuba diving, only to get left behind. When they come up from the water, the boat is gone, and they are all alone.
