Bait 3D is a 2012 3D disaster horror film directed by Kimble Rendall based on the screenplay by John Kim and Russell Mulcahy.

[3] It featured Sharni Vinson, Phoebe Tonkin, Xavier Samuel, Julian McMahon, Cariba Heine, Alex Russell, Lincoln Lewis, Alice Parkinson, and Dan Wyllie.

The film centers around a group of people who try to escape a grocery store, submerged as a result of a freak tsunami, while being hunted by bloodthirsty great white sharks.

As Rory boards into the ocean to set a buoy, a great white shark appears and kills a man in the water.

While stocking shelves with Naomi (Alice Parkinson) he sees Tina with her new boyfriend Steven (Qi Yuwu) returned from Singapore.

In the supermarket, a young woman, Jaime (Phoebe Tonkin) is caught shoplifting, and temporarily evades the security guard by meeting up with her boyfriend Ryan (Alex Russell), who also works at the store.

The tense situation eventually escalates, and Doyle's partner appears and shoots assistant manager Julie (Rhiannon Dannielle Pettett).

Doyle's partner is killed by the flood and the survivors are forced to take shelter on top of the shelving units in the store.

Steven volunteers to shut off the power and the others dress him in crude armor made of shopping carts/shelves to protect him from the shark.

Naomi is pulled from the water as the shark devours Kirby, catching its jaw on the hook and ensnaring itself in the trap.

Josh kills the shark with the taser as Doyle wires a truck jammed in the entrance to explode, breaking a hole in the debris and freeing them.

[8] Production of a sequel called Deep Water, about a plane en route from China to Australia crashing in the Pacific Ocean, was scrapped in March 2014 due to "uncomfortable similarities" to the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.
