“Black Water: Abyss” (** out of four) was a logy sequel to the 2007 horror thriller set in Northern Australia in which five friends (Jessica McNamee, Luke Mitchell, Amali Golden, and others) descend into a cave and find themselves threatened and terrorized by a ravenous and deadly crocodile. Good-looking and sleek cinematography from Damien Beebe fails to give this the sharpness and bite (no pun intended) that it needs. Some good kills from the crocodile provide a few jolts but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t re-watch “The Descent”, “Crawl”, or even “Crocodile Dundee” again instead.
