Nestled deep in the most uncharted part of the Sea of Cortez in Baja Mexico sits a tiny Island you will
not find on any map. On this Island is a volcanic crater that forms a lagoon. During certain times of the
year, when the tides and moon are just right, massive schools of fish in a crazy feeding frenzy, will chase
churning bait balls into this shallow lagoon which is better known as Lago de Sangre… the Lake of Blood.
“Shallow Water” follows a small group of hardcore fishermen and adventurers who are trying to find

However, once they team up with a pair of fellow explorers and find the Lago de Sangre, they also
discover something they don’t expect… They realize very quickly that they’re not alone. One by one,
members of the expedition seem to mysteriously disappear…

Tension builds within the group, eventually pitting them against each other. Meanwhile, a prehistoric
creature lurks around them in the shallow waters, carrying out its primordial instincts to feed…
