Red Water aired on the Turner Broadcasting System (TBS) in August of 2003 and became one of the highest-rated movies in the station's history. The film starred Lou Diamond Phillips, Kristy Swanson and Coolio. Directed by Charles Robert Carner and produced by Michael G. Larkin and Mitch Engel, the film tells the story of a bull shark which wreaks havoc as it makes its way up a river in Louisiana.
Shot on location in Cape Town, South Africa, the production built three different sharks to depict the single bull shark in the movie. One of those became the first free-swimming animatronic shark ever used in a motion picture.
In an homage, the film uses the same Louisiana license plate Hooper pulls from a shark's stomach in Jaws (1975).
