Synopsis

When a monstrous freak tsunami hits a sleepy beach community, a group of survivors from different walks of life find themselves trapped inside a submerged grocery store. As they try to escape to safety, they soon discover that there is a predator among them more deadly than the threat of drowning--vicious great white sharks lurking in the water, starved for fresh meat. As the bloodthirsty sharks begin to pick the survivors off one by one, the group realizes that they must work together to find a way out without being eaten alive.

Trivia

The film began shooting in Queensland, Australia in September 2010 and wrapped just prior to Christmas 2010. On January 3, 2011, the post-production was moved to Singapore where it continued for several months.
Three different Pomeranians were used in the movie to play Heather's dog, Bulli - one for swimming, one for barking, and one for running.
The film was released on DVD in Australia on January 16, 2013 without the "3D" subtitle as Bait; it was only released in 3D on Blu-ray.
