Deep Water (2016)

“A disturbing murder unearths long-forgotten crimes.”

Plot

In the sun-kissed, wave-lapped locale of Bondi, the gruesome discovery of a young man's mutilated corpse in a beachfront apartment thrusts Detectives Tori Lustigman and Nick Manning into a chilling investigation. Is this a tale of domestic violence gone awry, a botched robbery, or an act of gay hate crime? As the detectives delve deeper, they unearth a sinister reality - the murderer is using the local app, THRUSTR, to procure unsuspecting victims. The race against time begins, for every user is a potential prey and the killer could strike again at any moment. The plot thickens as Tori and Nick stumble upon a shocking revelation - a string of unexplained deaths, 'suicides,' and disappearances spanning from the 80s to the 90s. The eerie, ritualistic nature of these killings echoes the brutality of their current case, suggesting a chilling connection. It seems that up to 80 potential murders of gay men in New South Wales have been overlooked, many linked to unpunished gay bashings by youth gangs. Could these past incidents be the result of shoddy police work, apathy, or something far more malevolent? Haunted by the unresolved disappearance of her own teenage brother, Tori becomes inexorably drawn into the case, her professional fascination morphing into a personal obsession. As the detectives meet with survivors of the past unresolved crimes and reopen cold cases, they are convinced that their current bloodthirsty killer is linked to the past. Their relentless pursuit of truth uncovers critical evidence leading to the serial killer, revealing a hidden past marred by bloodshed. The stakes are high - relationships, careers, and lives hang in the balance as Tori and Nick inch closer to the truth. Their determined quest promises closure to the victims' families, bringing both past and present killers to justice and unearthing a chilling narrative of hate that had been buried beneath the sands of Bondi's beach.
