Show Notes
Dead Calm is a 1989 Australian psychological thriller directed by Phillip Noyce, starring Nicole Kidman, Sam Neill and Billy Zane.
A couple sailing the Pacific to recover from personal tragedy encounter a stranger adrift on a sinking vessel — and what follows is one of the most tense, claustrophobic cat-and-mouse thrillers ever made.
Shot almost entirely at sea, it launched Nicole Kidman to international attention and proves you don't need a big budget to deliver genuine, white-knuckle suspense.
Watch Dead Calm on Fetch — and for the best experience, get it up on a big screen Hisense TV.
