AI-written drivel about a possessed swimming pool that resorts to loud noises and cheap tricks to try and stay entertainingly scary for its intended adolescent audience. Devoid of any real merit, Night Swim only succeeds in wasting your time. Give it a miss, it's not even funny-bad, it's just offensively cookie cutter and cliché.

This is that typical January horror release where a studio decides to cash in on the underdeveloped tastes of teenagers, which is something Hollywood has been doing for almost as long as the genre has been invented (so don’t hate me, we’ve all been taken advantage of at some point). It’s just another dumb, uninteresting possession movie with some of the worst editing and use of sound I’ve seen in a horror movie in a while. Lots of schlocky scares, dreadful lines and terrible performances. I will admit that there were a couple of neat visual choices between the bad camera pans and cheesy CGI, for example I liked some of the underwater shots. Besides that it really stinks, skip it.

2/10

Blumhouse horror is a weird brand, especially when it comes out in January/February (in this case a SWIMMING movie in January). They are often derivative of some horror trope, usually PG-13 to bring kids to the movie theater, and spotty execution. "M3GAN" was one of the rare good examples in 2023, but that still was PG-13 and a Chucky derivative. "Night Swim" was not good. The production quality is what we have come to expect from Blumhouse, but this plot/concept is just nonsense. Long story short, it is just a very bland horror film that will only appeal to people with a very limited horror palate. Happy to have only streamed it for "free" on Peacock.

Rating: 1/5 - 55% - Skip

Glad I skipped this one in the theater. Wasn’t expecting much and it still managed to disappoint.

Not very scary, and I didn't want to have a house with a swimming pool anyway. ;>

‘Let's make a haunted movie but it can't be a haunted house, so let's think outside the box’

‘I've got an idea how about a haunted swimming pool’

Shitty movie with a shitty premise. Not scary and what a dreadful ending like someone died and there's zero emotion. Creators just use Ghosts as an excuse to make shit up.

Like a conversation with a goose: nonsensical and silly.

Before the movie started, I thought there's no way this could be a movie about a haunted backyard swimming pool but then the Blumhouse logo floated onto the screen and I realized what I was in for.

Some genuine moments of suspense but most of this movie is as all wet as a goose's ass.

An okay storyline with a decent amount of jumpscares but the reason it doesn’t get a higher rating is due to the fact that it loses the pacing part way through and it’s not helped by Wyatt Russell not being the best actor…

A boring uninspired movie purely made to generate profits for the studios. It wasn't even bad in a good way. Just a dull movie with bland characters.

Cheesey horror. The ideas scared me, but the movie didn't do much. It didn't really make a lot of sense, but I am sure their planning number 2, 3, 4, and 5. The potential was there, but it just didn't feel full enough. The cgi was terrible, and the camerawork could have been a lot better. The acting and the dialogue were plain, but I don't blame the actors. All in all, it's worth it if you're watching it with friends, but probably not if you're watching it alone.

I felt so many vibes, and nither one was good, as a horror movie it's a joke. Mix some plots of some other scripts and "ohh ok we've a movie", or in this case a mess wicth even the title makes sense.

This was close to being a good film. I don't think they nailed down the "evil spirit" well enough -- I think it could have been tightened up a fair bit to make it really spooky rather than just feeling like an old episode of Goosebumps.

[spoiler]The spirit wasn't consistent, for one thing. Its actions were random at best. Every character immediately knew that the Pet Semat... er... SWIMMING POOL was a vampire, and they easily won as soon as the filled in the pool. Anti-climactic, and honestly, did anyone feel bad about any of the injuries or deaths other than the girl right at the start?[/spoiler]

This is funny bad, so it wasn’t actually a terrible watch. Wyatt Russell as an actor, to me, feels like he’s far beyond this type of movies. Jump scares galore and not a single one works. This ones best watched at home drinking with friends or not at all.

This movie is absolute trash. I feel like I’ve lost brain cells and my IQ is down 50 points from having watched this horse manure of a film. Avoid it at all costs 1/10.

It's a horror movie about a swimming pool and I wasn't expecting much, but man, this manages to be worse than I expected. They're even using AI to write a movie script, but that's not possible.

Started out solid, so I had a feeling a startling drop off would occur. Did it ever. From decent suspense and foreboding to start to complete inadvertent parody. Barely bothered to watch the last bit. 3.7

An absolute achievement.

I haven't felt less scared watching a horror movie in a while. January horror movies are making a cheeky comeback. Killer swimming pools? Brilliant.

I can't believe The Baron from Dune is haunting a fucking swimming pool lol.

It doesn't start out bad, but then the family starts fooling around, if it's the pool, it's just the pool.
