It’s been a while since I have put together a ‘7 Things’ list but while watching some of “All is Lost” on Saturday it got me thinking about films which will actually make you scared to go into the sea and maybe of the water in general. I certainly wouldn’t fancy a small boat in the sea at all!
Didn’t quite make the list – Titanic I thought this would be the most obvious choice so decided to not include it in the 7 films.
All is Lost
Poor Robert Redford pretty much showing why you should never do this alone.
Perfect Storm
A rough ride for Clooney and Wahlberg in this one!
Jaws
This really does make you think twice about going in the water!
The Guardian
Rescue swimmers jumping in the water to save people when no-one else will
Captain Phillips
Being taken hostage and not having any help close by!
Hard Rain
A big storm in a town which begins to flood, with guns and bad guys involved!
Life of Pi
Losing your whole family and life in a shipwreck and managing to survive?
What films would you have on this list?
Let's Go To The Movies 
One could argue ‘Frozen’: You lose your parents and/or your monarchs.

I’d never thought about that!

Castaway! You’d be stuck there forever. Sharknado? Haha, jk . . .

Great list. I will throw The Reef in there. It is an Australian shark thriller. Instead of CGI, they edit genuine shark footage into the film. It sounds clunky, but believe me it is terrifyingly done.

Oh that sounds like such a good idea to add to the suspense!

I’d recommend the British Titanic movie, 1958’s A Night to Remember and a disaster flick The Last Voyage: poor Dorothy Malone is trapped under tons of metal from a boiler exploding on a cruise ship and she’s gonna drown unless hubby Robert Stack can find a way to save her.

Nice list here. I loved All is Lost because it showed how one little bump in the road (or in this case, the ocean) can screw you over irrevocably. That film definitely made me weary of going out for a seemingly nice boat ride.

That is very true! Nothing good ever seems to come out or from being in the water!
