Quite unrealistic that 4 unbound people couldn't figure out a way to jump one pretty much unarmed man.

Well acted, beautifully photographed movie with great characterization by Ben Oxenbould.

Not sure why this has such terrible ratings...this is a perfect example of why I don't trust IMDB ratings.

There are some really terrible films on Amazon Prime, but this is definitely one of the worst. 90 minutes of pure idiocy.

What might appear to be a low-budget surfer-dude movie with sex, skin and stupid plot turns out to be a well-scripted, tightly told and well acted suspense film with plenty of sexual tension and a truly disturbing portrait of "the-killer-among-us". Best thing about CAUGHT INSIDE is it's in every respect believable.

This story has been done to death but as Aussie movies rarely disappoint I was sure we might have something interesting to watch but ohhhh how wrong I was.For a start you can hardly hear or understand much of what is happening as the sound control is awful, I actually had to turn up the graphics equaliser voice section on my surround sound amp so that I might be able to make the vocals out a bit better but even so the mumbling acting was not something my amp was going to cure.

Crazed raging psycho Bull (a genuinely scary, intense, and convincing performance by Ben Oxenbould) terrorizes a handful of surfers on a yacht. Director Adam Blaiklock, who also co-wrote the engrossing script with Joe Velikovsky and Matt Tomaszewski, relates the gripping story at a brisk place, firmly grounds the premise in a credible everyday world, draws the believable characters with real depth, and gradually builds the suspense to a nerve-wracking fever pitch in the harrowing last third.

"Caught Inside" (2010) is an Australian psychological thriller about a group of surfers who sail to a remote island paradise for vacation. A couple of women join the expedition at the last moment and a series of events turns the holiday into a torturous adventure.

I saw this on the first public screening so there were cast and crew there and the mood in the room of the general public in attendance was very supportive which made it for a very enjoyable experience on the whole. Though Ben Oxenbould's performance is the stand out for me, the rest of the cast are also incredibly good and deserve much praise.
