The Requin (2022)
The Requin is a suspenseful survival horror film directed by Le-Van Kiet, set against the stunning but perilous backdrop of a tropical paradise.
The movie stars Alicia Silverstone and James Tupper as Jaelyn and Kyle, a couple who decide to take a relaxing vacation at a secluded beach resort. However, their idyllic getaway quickly turns into a nightmare when they are stranded in the middle of the ocean after their boat capsizes during a violent storm.
As they struggle to survive, they find themselves in increasingly perilous conditions. The vast, empty ocean becomes a deadly trap, and their hopes of rescue dwindle with each passing day.
But the real terror begins when a massive, predatory shark begins circling their makeshift raft, relentlessly hunting them. Jaelyn and Kyle must rely on each other and their wits to navigate the unforgiving sea, all while fighting the crushing fear of being prey to the predator lurking below the surface.
The tension builds as the couple’s relationship is tested to its breaking point, with each passing moment escalating the psychological and physical strain.
The Requin combines thrilling survival elements with terrifying underwater sequences, capturing both the isolation of the ocean and the primal fear that comes with being hunted by one of nature’s most formidable creatures. The film is a claustrophobic and intense ride that explores themes of desperation, survival, and human resilience in the face of overwhelming odds.
