Open Water
A vacationing couple must battle panic and relentless sharks after their boat abandons them in open water, fighting to stay alive long enough for rescue.
“Scream all you want.”
Synopsis
Two divers find themselves stranded at sea without a boat, surrounded by nothing but water stretching for miles in every direction—unless they look downward, where something lies beneath the surface.

Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
