The Real-Life Shark Attack That Inspired The Reef Stalked
A New Wave of Shark Films
The Reef Stalked, a recent addition to the genre, is based on a real-life shark attack.
The film follows the story of a group of friends who are on a diving trip when they are attacked by a great white shark. The attack leaves one of the friends dead and the others traumatized. The film is a chilling reminder of the dangers of swimming in shark-infested waters.
The Reef Stalked is the latest in a recent wave of shark films. In the past month, over 100,000 people have visited theaters to see shark movies. This surge in popularity is likely due to the success of the 2016 film The Shallows, which starred Blake Lively as a surfer who is attacked by a great white shark.
The popularity of shark films is also likely due to the increasing number of shark attacks in recent years. In 2017, there were 88 unprovoked shark attacks worldwide, the highest number in more than a decade. This increase in attacks is likely due to a number of factors, including climate change, overfishing, and the increasing popularity of water sports.
While shark attacks are rare, they can be deadly. The Reef Stalked is a reminder of the dangers of swimming in shark-infested waters. If you are planning on swimming in the ocean, be sure to be aware of your surroundings and take precautions to avoid being attacked.
