Excludes superhero/supervillain movies
Movies, TV shows and episode written by Michael Crichton (1942-2007) or adapted from his work.
Short films and derivative works based only on characters or locations created by Crichton (e.g. 'Jurassic World' or the 'Westworld' show) are not part of this list.
For good measure I also included the movie "Physical Evidence" that Crichton did not write but direct.

The Best LIST!!!!
Best Movies of the Decade
Movies taking place mostly underwater with monsters.. there are fewer of these than you’d think. If you know of any that are missing please let me know.
A selection of talassophobic movies.
Thalassophobia is the fear of deep bodies of water such as oceans, lakes, rivers or even pools. That phobia includes just being in deep bodies of water, the fear of the vast emptiness of the sea, being trapped underwater, or aquatic creatures lurking below in murky waters.
In general it is not the fear of the ocean itself even but the vastness and emptiness of it and how small we are compared to what might be in it, which can include the fear of man-made objects or just giant things unter water in related sub-phobias.
In other words, this list consists of movies with a deep-sea horror vibe or maritime movies with a strong emphasize on isolation and survival under or above water that might trigger thalassophobia.
No genertic aquatic creature features, martime movies, submarine movies or movies with a sinking ship included that otherwise are not ocean centric. Also no shorts and documentaries.
Though not all movies set in the ocean or another body of water trigger thalassophobia. For example phobics have no problem watching "Avatar 2" (mainly because of all the clean water).
