Jaws (franchise) about a great white shark terrorizing a beach resort. After various revisions and rewrites, Benchley delivered his final draft in January 1973. The title was not decided until shortly before the book went to print. Benchley says that he had spent months thinking of titles, many of which he calls "pretentious" such as "The Stillness in the Water" and "Leviathan Rising". Benchley regarded other ideas, such as "The Jaws of Death" and "The Jaws of Leviathan", as "melodramatic, weird, or pretentious." According to Benchley, the novel still did not have a title until twenty minutes before production of the book.
The Reef (2010 film) can hope for is 30 screens, which is what you get for Australian films, unless you make something like "Australia"." The film was released straight-to-DVD in the United Kingdom in January 2011. The film received positive reviews from critics, achieving a score of 79% on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics praised the use of actual shark footage, as opposed to special effects, in the film, as well as the directing and acting. Crikey described "The Reef" as "an unnerving winner: tense, twitchy and frighteningly entertaining." Numerous horror review sites gave the film a thumbs up comparing it with "Jaws" and "Open Water".
