Lifetime Movie Network is set to captivate the minds of the viewers with its upcoming movie 'Deep Blue Nightmare' starring Michael Madsen and Paige McGarvin. The story revolves around two young women, Sarah (Paige McGarvin) and Meghan (Juliana Destefano), who travel to a deserted island for a photo shoot. However, their lives take a U-turn when they are attacked by an aggressive great white shark.

The plot is somewhat identical to movies 'Jaws' and 'Deep Blue Sea'. 'Jaws' is regarded as one of the finest films of this generation and featured a great white shark terrorizing innocent people. Meanwhile, 'Deep Blue Sea' was also a moderate success at the box office.
