SNAKES ON A PLANE director’s next film could be UNTITLED 3D SHARK THRILLER (literally)

Oh, few things give me as much joy as watching the edited for television version of SNAKES ON A PLANE. Director David Ellis may be giving us another film to mock on basic cable with his upcoming shark thriller, but first he has to come to some sort of agreement with Relativity Media on its title.

Ellis' SNAKES ON A PLANE hit the cinemas under its working title, and that is what he is hoping for with his Untitled 3D Shark Thriller, or shall I say UNTITLED 3D SHARK THRILLER?

In my mind, I can already see myself saying to the ticket counter attendant, "One ticket for the 4:30PM showing of the UNTITLED 3D SHARK THRILLER, please."  'm guessing film marketing wasn't a popular area of study for Mr. Ellis. The film was sold overseas as SHARK NIGHT 3D, but Relativity Media executives aren't particularly fond of that title either. Is there a more appropriate title for this film out there than UNTITLED 3D SHARK THRILLER or SHARK NIGHT 3D? I hope so. Too bad JAWS was already taken.

UNTITLED 3D SHARK THRILLER follows seven vacationers as they spend the weekend at a lake house in the Louisiana Gulf. Their getaway quickly becomes a nightmare as they encounter several fresh-water shark attacks.

Based on that synopsis, I feel like there should be some better options for the film's title than the two currently on the table. I'm not even remotely interested in this film, but I have some ideas floating around in this brain of mine.

What do you think, dear readers? Can you come up with something better than UNTITLED 3D SHARK THRILLER? If so, we'd love to see it in the comments section below.
