Exceeded Expectations by a Lot
Of course I wasn't expecting much based upon viewer reviews and ratings, but Blumhouse? Sure, why not?
Also, I happen to find swimming pools scary - at night - when the lights are off. Dark water, you know? When you can't see what's down there! So this film had a built-in fright factor for me without doing much other than just showing the scary backyard swimming pool.
The premise was somewhat unique and I found it intriguing. It kept me guessing and the constant uneasiness did its work on me. I never got bored, never got lost, and never looked away.
For a somewhat low-budget film, this is well done. The cast is quite good all around and I found the dialogue and relationships believable. It's worth a watch if you like cheesy, gritty horror.
