Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, Academy Award-winning director Barry Levinson and newbie writer Michael Wallach give us The Bay, a found-footage frightener about water-bred parasitic invaders that consume human inside out.

Peep it:

The film’s synopsis reads:

The quaint seaside town of Chesapeake Bay thrives on water; it is the lifeblood of the community. When two biological researchers from France find a staggering level of toxicity in the water, they attempt to alert the mayor, but he refuses to create a panic in the docile town.

As a result, a deadly plague is unleashed, turning the people of Chesapeake Bay into hosts for a mutant breed of parasites that take control of their minds, and eventually their bodies.

A cross between Jaws and Animal Planet’s “Monsters Inside Me,” the film stars Kristen Connolly (Cabin in the Woods), Kether Donohue (Pitch Perfect), Lauren Cohn (The Hitcher), Will Rogers (Nancy, Please), Stephen Kunken (Wolf of Wall Street), Frank Deal (Bourne Legacy) and Jane McNeill (“The Walking Dead”).

Roadside Attractions will release The Bay in theaters and VOD on Nov. 2
