One of my favorites Deep Blue Sea, a shark thriller starring Samuel L. Jackson, opened July 28, 1999. It is proof that a black guy can survive a horror movie. That was L.L. Cool J, not Jackson, who had one of the most surprising deaths in the film.
It was a breakout role for Thomas Jane. Director Reny Harlin had directed Cutthroat Island just a few years before.
Although it received mostly lukewarm reviews when it opened, Deep Blue Sea is considered one of the best shark movies of all time.
