movie, Night Swim

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, it’s “Night Swim,” your annual January horror movie from the folks at Blumhouse.

“Night Swim” occupies the same spot on the calendar that “M3GAN” held a year ago. And while nothing could ever possibly reach that film’s gonzo heights or cultural significance, everyone seems fully aware of the supremely silly premise they’ve signed up for here. It’s about a pool ... that eats people. Producers Jason Blum and James Wan, both horror titans, once again show they know how to freak audiences out while maintaining a sly sense of humor. We’ve seen inanimate objects get anthropomorphized for thrills and chills before in the form of “Rubber” (about a homicidal tire) and “In Fabric” (about a homicidal dress). But a pool just seems so relaxing, so luxurious, that the idea of it turning on the very people who seek its soothing embrace provides an inspired twist.
