A trailer for an upcoming horror flick called Night Swim has been released. Produced by James Wan at Atomic Monster and Jason Blum at Blumhouse the new horror flick comes from Bryce McGuire who has based their sophomore feature film off of their 2014 short film by the same name.
A former major league baseball player, forced into early retirement by a degenerative illness, moves into a new home with his family. Secretly hoping, against the odds, to return to pro ball, Ray persuades Eve that the new home’s shimmering backyard swimming pool will be fun for the kids and provide physical therapy for him. But a dark secret in the home’s past will unleash a malevolent force that will drag the family under, into the depths of inescapable terror.
The trailer focuses on the daughter in the family, Izzy, and a young boy having a swim, at night. They're played the age old classic pool game, Marco Polo, when the boy slips out of the pool, leaving Izzy alone and calling out to no one. Let the creepiness and jump scare ensue. It gives you what you expect and what you want out of a horror flick from Wan and Blum. Scares, scares, scares.
Night Swim is listed as Coming Soon. As more news comes out we will share it with you here.
