What to say about Black Water: Abyss... There's a lot of heavy breathing. And loads of the characters shouting eachothers names. Plenty of tropes ripped straight out of the first movie - minimal crocodile, a character who is injured and becomes a burden, a pregnant character for that extra pinch of drama - but it's once again helmed by Andrew Traucki, so is it really plagiarism if he's stealing from himself?

Its not the worst killer animal film I've ever seen. There are a few tense moments, a good cast, and the choice to not show the crocodile too often is probably a good one, considering it looks dodgy as fuck when the films climax arrives, but it's a little too drawn out for my taste, and the tension isn't good enough to stop the overall film from dragging hard, and ends up being a mediocre watch at best.
