First image from Shark Night 3D arrives online

The first image from Shark Night 3D has been revealed online.

With a title like that, the new film from David R. Ellis ( Snakes on a Plane ) was never going to be a tough sell.

The picture features star Sara Paxton (of The Last House on the Left remake) being taunted by the titular underwater beastie.

It's a commonly-acknowledged truth that sharks have great cinematic potential (as Jaws proved for posterity), so here's hoping that Ellis delivers the pulpy, B-movie thrills that were sadly absent from Snakes on a Plane .

Here's that image:



The plot sees a bunch of college students head down to a lake house in Louisiana's Gulf Bay, where they're terrorised by a series of shark attacks.

It's a simple enough premise, that should hopefully result in some rollickingly-good Saturday night fun.

Shark Night 3D is set to land in the US on 14 September 2011, and a UK release should follow soon after that.
