You gotta be f***ing kidding. Strong thalassophobia warning!
"Whalefall" is a film adaptation of Daniel Kraus' 2023 novel of the same name, and a teaser-trailer was released just hours ago. Now, before we jump to any conclusions, let's just remember that we don't know the movie. It might turn out to be... whatever.
But this is hands down the most terrifying film trailer so far, ever. Sure, there have been attempts, but this one goes all the way. It's everything scuba divers ever dreamt of, and it's everyone's worst nightmare - in breathtaking, dynamic detail and action, the actual thing, 100% convincing, you're literally "in there".
Forget about "Tentacles", "20 Leagues Under The Sea" and "The Meg" - these two minutes alone immediately set a new standard for what animalistic undersea terror looks and feels like.
And, if this is just a teaser-trailer, then, OMG, what else does the movie have in store...?! It remains to be seen if it can keep up with this outstanding little preview. But, congratulations to the director, effects crew, editor, and everyone else involved, this chunk bitten off of "Whalefall" is already a huge success.
