Watch The Bay Movie Online No Survey Two million fish washed ashore. One thousand blackbirds dropped from the sky. On July 4, 2009 a deadly menace swept through the quaint seaside town of Claridge, Maryland, but the harrowing story of what happened that Independence Day has never been told - until now. The authorities believed they had buried the truth about the tragedy that claimed over 700 human lives. Now, three years later, a reporter has emerged with footage revealing the cover-up and an unimaginable killer: a mysterious parasitic outbreak. Told from the perspective of those who were there and saw what happened, The Bay unfolds over 24 hours though people's iPhones, Androids, 911 calls, web cams, and whatever else could be used to document the nightmare in Claridge. -- (C) Official Site Release Date The Bay Nov 2, 2012 Limited | |

Review For The Bay |
More coherent and thought-provoking than most 'found-footage' horror movies, this should appeal to genre fans and eco-activists alike. Nigel Floyd-Time Out
Although there are some scary moments here, and a lot of gruesome ones, this isn't a horror film so much as a faux eco-documentary. Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times
[Levinson] demonstrates he can make a shakycam found-footage horror movie every bit as fake-looking, clumsy and unscary as your average college student working on a $200 budget. Lou Lumenick-New York Post
A ripped-from-the-headlines psychological chiller that burrows under the skin with its terrifyingly local twist. Sean O'Connell-Washington Post
Like a "Blair Witch Project" for thinking adults, one that's scary in two distinct ways. Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle
The story becomes more ridiculous as it escalates, the film's over-determined ecological focus undermining any real horror movie tension. Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times
As an exercise in lo-fi shivers it's fitfully compelling, but the plot runs out long before the credits and its characters are ultimately so much scare-bait. Nick Setchfield-SFX Magazine
It's a low-budget film, but often has effective death sequences with moderately good special effects. If only we could move away from the shaky-cam storytelling, I would be so much happier. Paul Chambers-Movie Chambers
Levinson should have been far more concerned about his story rather than the method in which he presented it. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com
Even though multiple-sourced footage remains a potentially interesting way to shoot a movie, using this particular framing device really has become redundant. Alistair Harkness-Scotsman
The tension is well enough sustained, the horrors build steadily, the eco message is familiar. Philip French-Observer [UK]
Gruesome but oddly riveting. David Gritten-Daily Telegraph
Seeking to merge the conventions of found-footage horror with targeted social commentary, the film does its job with some skill ... Derek Malcolm-This is London
I am within a catfish's whisker of giving this film five stars; best to stop me before I elevate it to the ranks of Vertigo and Citizen Kane. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times
It's cleverly put together, the threat nicely revealed via various footage and is never over exaggerated to such an extent that it loses touch with reality. Henry Northmore-The List
Effective but hollow, The Bay is a minor work from a director lost at sea. Chris Blohm-Little White Lies
While effective at making our skin crawl, this eco-themed frightener can't help but feel like an unremarkable footnote in a sub-genre which peaked years ago. Why now Baz? Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor
A largely ineffective and ponderous movie that harnesses many of the worst elements of both the horror genre and the found footage trope. Ben Rawson-Jones-Digital Spy
All prologue and no pay-off, but compelling all the same, this curio plays out like Diary Of The Dead with more diaries and fewer dead. Matt Glasby-Total Film
Paranormal Activity creator Oren Peli helps that old dog Barry Levinson learn some new tricks in The Bay. Jason Buchanan-TV Guide's Movie Guide
Levinson's film proves something pretty unequivocally - any conceit, any style, be it found footage or shakycam or haunted house or whatever, can be great in the hands of a good filmmaker. Jason Gorber-Twitch
Barry Levinson makes the point that when a top flight filmmaker takes on a beaten-to-death genre -- found footage horror -- he or she can raise the bar, even if they don't reinvent the wheel. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Faux-doc "TV coverage" device isn't the most convincing. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
The film's intimate approach smartly mixes genre conventions with modern technology, and the script is just plausible enough to generate some real suspense. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
... effective and entertaining and has such a different voice than most horror movies that it should really surprise audiences. Drew McWeeny-HitFix
