When a mysterious sea creature begins to terrorize a small Newfoundland town, a hard-bitten fisherman and his family must fight to protect their close-knit community from an unseen threat. As fear spreads through the coastal settlement, the lives of everyone in the village hang in the balance, forcing ordinary people to confront the terrifying unknown lurking beneath the waves.

Created by Jesse McKeown, the series unfolds with a deliberate, tense pacing that builds an atmosphere of creeping dread and isolation. The stark Newfoundland landscape enhances the moody, chilling tone, making the coastal setting feel both beautiful and deeply menacing. Through grounded performances from Josh Hartnett, Mackenzie Davis, and Charlie Heaton, the narrative explores community bonds and survival against impossible odds, grounding the supernatural elements in raw human emotion.

Long after the final credits roll, the chilling sense of isolation and the lingering mystery of the deep water will stay with you.
