"Night Swim: A Polarizing Plunge into Haunting Waters"
TL;DR Summary
"Night Swim," a new horror film from Blumhouse, presents a unique and silly premise—a pool that devours people. Directed by Bryce McGuire, the film plays with suburban banality and ancient evils, creating tension through sound design and camera work. Despite some overreliance on jump scares and a less intriguing reveal of the entity behind the terror, the film offers laughs and features strong performances, particularly from Wyatt Russell. "Night Swim" is now playing in theaters, offering a blend of horror and humor with a touch of suburban critique.
