Night Swim

Movies that start as short films have been around in showbiz for a while. Following in the footsteps of shorts like Lights Out, Mama, Smile, and Saw, we now have Night Swim. It's based on a 2014 short film by Rod Blackhurst and Bryce McGuire.

Night Swim tells the story of Ray Waller, a once-promising baseball player forced to retire early because of a neurological condition. Ray, his wife Eve, and their kids, Izzy and Elliot, move to a new house, hoping for a fresh start and a calmer life.

Their new place is pretty big, with an impressive swimming pool in the backyard that hasn't been used for 15 years by the previous owner.

Ray uses the pool for his physical therapy and as a fun spot for his kids. But once they start using the pool again, strange and scary things begin happening to Ray's family, caused by some mysterious presence.
