Blumhouse Productions’ latest horror offering, ‘Night Swim’, is now available for digital rental or purchase on all major streaming platforms. This release comes as a bit of a surprise considering its recent theatrical debut on January 5th. Rated PG-13 for its blend of terror, violent content, and language, the film promises a horror experience that’s accessible to a wider audience than is typically seen in most horror films.
Directed and written by Bryce McGuire, “Night Swim” is produced by horror icons Jason Blum and James Wan. The feature is an expansion of McGuire’s 2014 short film, showcasing his directorial prowess. Filmed in Altadena, California, and the Los Angeles region, the movie features a haunting score by Mark Korven, known for his work on “The Black Phone”.
“Night Swim” has garnered mixed reviews, holding a 22% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics have pointed out that the film’s premise might not fully support its feature-length format. However, its digital release presents an opportunity for the film to win over some new horror fans that haven’t had the opportunity to watch it yet.
