Screaming Sunday - Crawl

Movie rating: 79/100
Plot:  Against all logic, the competitive swimmer, Haley (Kaya Scodelario), drives into the mouth of a furiously destructive Category 5 hurricane on a collision course with her hometown of Florida, to check in on her estranged father, Dave (Berry Pepper). There, in their weather-beaten house amid a rapidly sinking and alligator-infested town, Haley and her father find themselves trapped in the labyrinthine mess of their flooded crawl space, where a merciless pair of six-metre predators is silently stalking them. Now--as Haley and Dave are gasping for air in the claustrophobic basement--only their will to survive can help them stand a chance against the scaly adversaries' powerful jaws. Can they escape without getting eaten alive?
The heroes: A girl, her father and his dog.
The antagonists: Bloodthirsty alligators. And seriously, the Hargans and Pennywise have nothing on those toothy motherfuckers. They are savage.
Best scene: Honestly the whole movie is a bit over 80 minutes long and it's a series of exciting and very well done scenes.
Oh-oh something's not right line: There's two of them!
What makes it so great? First of all, let's get the most important thing out of the way - the dog is FINE. You can safely watch it, that little sweetheart is OK in the end. Crawl had a relatively small budget and didn't have screenings in advance for critics. In spite of that it is, right after Midsommar and Ready or Not, both one of the best and best looking horror movies of the year. It looks really stunning, the sound design is top notch and while the story is very simple, thanks to short runtime and likable heroes, the film is a lot of fun to watch. Compared to its budget it went on to earn a lot of money and got great reviews, so we are probably getting a shitty sequel to it in the future.
Morbid trivia: This movie was inspired by a true alligator event from Hurricane Florence.
Scare factor:  - 3/5 evil pumpkins - the jump scares that are here are really fucking great. Jump scares get bad rep but they are so well executed in this one you can't possibly dislike those moments.
Gore factor:- 3/5 bloody Leatherfaces - there are some gruesome kills in this movie.
Is there a twist? No, it's very straightforward.
Unsuitable for: People who live anywhere near alligators.
Repercussions: Fear of alligators and of Florida (even bigger fear than the one you should already feel, that is)
