Night Swim
There have been many movies about haunted houses. Now, here is one about a house with a haunted pool. Marco…
The Waller family moves into a new house. They unexpectedly discover there is something supernatural about their backyard pool. The husband/father Ray is recovering from a baseball injury & finds the pool therapeutic at first. But then, one by one each family has a bizarre incident involving the pool. Things escalate at the big pool party that the Wallers throw for their new friends & neighbors. Events are tied to something supernatural & possible demon possession but things don’t make a lot of sense. The plot is about as murky as the infected pool water at times. By the end, sacrifices have to be made to save the day. This one is more suspense & creepy than horror. Who will die & who will live? Can they cover up the evil in the backyard? …Polo!
Alien gives it 2 “toy boat” stars out of 4.
