    The 3-D action-thriller Sanctum, from executive producer James Cameron, follows a team of underwater cave divers on a treacherous expedition to the largest, most beautiful and least accessible cave system on Earth. When a tropical storm forces them deep into the caverns, they must fight raging water, deadly terrain and creeping panic as they search for an unknown escape route to the sea. Master diver Frank McGuire (Richard Roxburgh) has explored the South Pacific's Esa-ala Caves for months. But when his exit is cut off in a flash flood, Frank's team--including 17-year-old son Josh (Rhys Wakefield) and financier Carl Hurley (Ioan Gruffudd)--are forced to radically alter plans. With dwindling supplies, the crew must navigate an underwater labyrinth to make it out. Soon, they are confronted with the unavoidable question: Can they survive, or will they be trapped forever?

TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Ioan Gruffudd performed his own base jump stunt, which he described as his favorite part of the shoot.

In an unfortunate coincidence, Agnes Milowka, one of the film's diving doubles, drowned after running out of air shortly after the film was released.

Ioan Gruffudd was the only member of the cast to be a fully qualified diver before the film began shooting.

At one point Richard Roxburgh asked the art department if they could lighten the load of the pack that he has to carry for most of the film. The next morning they presented him with the reduced weight pack, telling him that they'd managed to take 2 kgs off the total weight. Of course, they hadn't bothered doing anything at all but Roxburgh was convinced that they had.

All the underwater sequences were shot in a large water tank at the Village Roadshow Studios in Queensland, Australia.

Popular Dialogues

"[last lines] Josh: I never knew my father, but I found him in that cave. He was a hell of a fella, once you got to know him."

"Josh: Assumption *is* the mother of all fuck-ups."
