When two of the surf crew are replaced at the last minute with girls - the heat is turned way up. The one single girl on board - SAM - enjoys the attention. She has Bull and Rob wrapped around her finger. The frustrated, psychotic, Bull soon decides, "she'll get what she's asking for" and molests her. Outraged, the others abandon him on an island, but the ever-determined Bull returns, and takes control of the boat. He attacks the crew and holds them hostage. He harasses Sam and tortures the others. It's a nightmare battle of wits, on board the yacht, as the four imprisoned friends must survive the fury of the psycho at the helm.

Critic Reviews
-
Peter Galvin, sbs.com.au
On one level, it's pure visceral filmmaker, a necessary bloodletting, and yet, it feels a little phoney and not quite right. By movie's end, the characters no longer feel real -- they're just figures, playing a movie game.
-
Leigh Paatsch, Herald Sun (Australia)
So when Caught Inside finally descends into an expected them-versus-him free-for-all in the final act, it is Oxenbould's wickedly wonky way with an improvised line that keeps the whole thing fresh.
-
Erin Free, FILMINK (Australia)
It's a solid effort all round, but this really belongs to Ben Oxenbould whose brilliantly unhinged performance makes this a truly thrilling experience.
-
Andrew L. Urban, Urban Cinefile
It's the 'powderkeg thriller' template
-
Louise Keller, Urban Cinefile
Caught in the web of its own making and delivers what is strictly formulaic cinema
