If you need a few extra scares in your life after watching Night Swim in theater,s then check out these five horror movies that are just like it.
Home is where the haunt is, although we can’t remember the last time that anyone had a haunted swimming pool like the one in Night Swim. The new horror thriller by writer and director Bryce McGuire stars Wyatt Russell and Kerry Condon as Ray and Eve Waller, with Amélie Hoeferle and Gavin Warren as their children, Izzy and Elliot Waller. Apparently, the Waller’s new home is a real fixer-upper, at least in the supernatural department. But they may want to stay out of the water if their pool really does have a ghost in it.
While there aren’t a lot of films with the exact same premise as this one, there are a lot of movies like Night Swim that share thematic similarities. There’s always something bumping in the night in these horror flicks, so you may want to watch them at home with the lights on.Evil Dead Rise (2023)
Evil Dead Rise is not a typical haunt since the decrepit apartment building isn’t filled with ghosts or spirits. Or at least it wasn’t until young Danny (Morgan Davies) brought home a demonic book called The Naturom Demonto, which had been hidden away in a sealed-off area below the building’s parking structure. Once Danny plays a recording from the book, all hell breaks loose, and the Deadites return to Earth.
Danny’s mother, Ellie (Alyssa Sutherland), is the first to fall under the Deadite’s influence, and she relentlessly tries to slaughter her children and her sister, Beth (Lily Sullivan). Now, Beth and her nieces and nephew are trapped in the building by a literal demon, and Ellie’s final form is one of the most unsettling things in any of the Evil Dead flicks.
