Summary: exitante y emocionante!!
Comment: Una pelìcula que hizo historia en el cine documntal del buceo, siendo sus protagonistas los primeros en filmar y fotografiar a los tiburones blancos sin protecciòn alguna de jaulas. imperdible!! muy emocionante las escenas extras con el homenaje a los integrantes del equipo casi 40 años despuès. realmente me emocionò y trajo a mi mente mis memorias de adolescente que soñaba con fotografiar tiburones bajo el agua, hoy lo he logrado y publicado esas fotos en varias revistas.

Summary: Blue Water White Death
Comment: This is a great documentary. The underwater photography and action are incredible. Also, the movie is worth watching just for the cast of characters - be sure to watch the reunion of the cast in the special features part. I am so glad that this movie is available again for everyone to see. GET IT!

Summary: Blue Water White Death
Comment: This film is RARE. It is a ground breaking, historical documentry which, unfortunately, is very little known. If you are a serious diver, this is a MUST-HAVE.

Summary: Great underwater cinematography, suspense, and diving history, rolled into one!
Comment: Blue Water, White Death is a wonderful blend of action, suspense and historical underwater cinematography.
The shark encounters might seem a bit tame by today's standards, especially if you are used to watching leaping Great Whites on NG's Shark Week and other wild-life shows. But the movie was shot in the innocent pre-Jaws early 70's, when few people knew much about sharks or shark behavior.
Watching the divers fend off schools of circling Oceanic White-tip sharks off South Africa is intense as it gets. Later, in Australian waters, you feel the adrenelin pumping as the divers film from inside cages while Great Whites rake their razor-sharp, serrated incisors along the bars.
A special treat is watching legends Stan Waterman, Valerie and Ron Taylor, Rodney Fox, and the late Peter Gimbel, diving in their prime, and then seeing them today and listening to them reprise their exciting experience.
The movie is unique and belongs in every ocean lover's collection.

Summary: DON"T LET THE COVER FOOL YOU...THIS ISN'T A REMAKE OF JAWS!!
Comment: This is a documentary of people that are shark divers.
They are actually searching for a Great White shark to film.
This was filmed a couple years before JAWS hit the big screen.
but this shows how sharks pretty much dominate the ocean.
And after JAWS came out back in 1975 which upped the fear of
sharks in the American public.
Just remember these diver are pro's at what they do and have been doing this for many years.
In fact a couple of the people that's on this documentary helped in the movie JAWS.
Ever since I watched JAWS I've had a fascination with sharks.
If your a shark diver or just like to watch shark diving this is
one of the best that I've seen.
I rate this DVD a 10 from 1to10!!
