The Devil’s Mouth review – Amazon’s shark thriller gives us just about enough to chew on

A group of holidaying friends get trapped in a cave system with a bull shark in a solidly entertaining b-movie lifted by a toxic central friendship

We’ve officially reached maximum shark movie this year, with around six released so far and even more on the way and so the drop of yet another one, in the middle of Shark Week, begs a number of questions: is it in any way essential? Will anyone ever come close to matching what Steven Spielberg achieved with Jaws or, more realistically, Renny Harlin with Deep Blue Sea? How junky are the shark effects? And most importantly, at least for those of us watching the majority of them, is it more of the same or is there an attempt to do something even slightly new with the swim, stalk, slash formula?

Trying something a little different is in itself extremely hit-and-miss because while I appreciated last year’s unusually striking Dangerous Animals for smartly inserting a serial killer into the mix, the addition of a hurricane to this year’s Netflix one-star dud Thrash meant that the film was both a terrible shark horror and a terrible disaster thriller. In recent months, we’ve seen Harlin return to the subgenre with Deep Water weaving in a plane crash and this week’s Antonio Banderas-starring Above & Below adding a drug cartel which makes the week’s other shark movie, Amazon’s gen Z-led offering The Devil’s Mouth, seem somewhat quaint in comparison. The special ingredient here is something a little less grandiose, but more potentially intriguing: a toxic friendship. It’s a movie that asks the rare question: what if you finally came to terms with how awful your best friend is just as a bull shark starts picking you off?

Silent Hill Townfall: the series is coming to Scotland, but what fresh horrors will it bring?

An amnesiac loner arrives in a remote town for who knows what reason … this may sound familiar but this time we’re on a remote Scottish island and surprises lie in wait

A man washes up at the harbour of a small coastal village, his memories vague, an eerie sea fog rolling in all around him. As beginnings go, this couldn’t be more Silent Hill – an amnesiac loner drawn to a remote town for who knows what reason. But this time, we’re not in the Pacific Northwest of the original games or the Japan of last year’s excellent Silent Hill f. We’re on an island off the northern coast of Scotland, and it’s 1996. Lead character Simon Ordell knows this place, but isn’t sure how – and why does he have an IV cannula stuck in his hand?

Announced back in 2022, Townfall is the work of Glasgow-based studio Screen Burn, previously responsible for tense horror adventure titles Stories Untold and Observation. Like Silent Hill f, it moves the setting far out of Silent Hill itself: St Amelia is a fishing town, inspired by St Monans and dozens of other seafront towns the team visited and extensively photographed.

“Kazuyoshi Miura recently scored in the Emperor’s Cup at the tender age of 59 – is he the oldest goalscorer in football history?” asks Terry Winter.

What makes a good wedding these days? I say flirting and chaos, but not three days in a French castle | Rachel Connolly

Modern weddings seem to have become all about the spectacle – although, if you do take the opulent route, I still want to come

Am I allowed to start a column about weddings by saying I don’t know exactly what I think about weddings and marriage in general? Well let’s see.

One thing I do know: I really like attending weddings. I love to go as a valued guest, to see close friends in love and watch dads I have known for many years gruffly and fearfully breach the dancefloor. But I also love to go as a totally minor guest (the better for people-watching) and collect anecdotes about who, from the various overlapping families, hates who. People will just tell you these things, especially if your presence is quite random. I like to see the freshly single sporting their revenge dresses and haircuts and physiques. I like to witness and partake in the abundance of flirting. I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad time at a wedding.

Where all 20 Premier League clubs should strengthen before the season

Manchester United and Arsenal need midfielders, Liverpool should sign a winger and Chelsea require a goalkeeper

By Opta Analyst

Declan Rice was worked to the bone by Arsenal last season, playing 4,456 minutes in all competitions. This showed at points during the World Cup, when the midfielder’s body looked on the verge of breaking down. Arsenal need high-quality reinforcements in the centre of the pitch so Rice can occasionally have a rest. Christian Nørgaard struggled to get on to the park last season, with Mikel Arteta seemingly not trusting in the former Brentford captain. An extra midfield option could prove crucial to Arsenal retaining their crown.
