Films like Raging Sharks.

Raging Sharks (2005) reads as Neutral, breathless, measured horror / sci-fi, inventive in texture. Ambivalent, mid-stakes, cold. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
