Plot: When a massive hurricane hits her Florida hometown, Haley (Kaya Scodelario) ignores evacuation orders to search for her missing father (Barry Pepper). Finding him gravely injured in the crawl space of their family home, the two become trapped by quickly encroaching floodwaters. As time runs out to escape the strengthening storm, Haley and her father discover that the rising water level is the least of their fears.
My Movie Review: The movie is a suspenseful tale of father and daughter trapped with crocs! Crawl is a creature feature that will surprise you in more ways than one put in a familiar setting old house basement flooded by massive hurricane produce a thrilling unpredictable scenarios:) What a great tease in the trailer and what's good about that it highlights scene to look forward and doesn't ruin the thrill unlike other movies it delivers on what it promises with refreshing arc! I love that it doesn't hold back in being brutal and bloody when it needs to be makes it realistic like the family in the store getting ATM machine' thought one will survive but all killed by gators! Kaya Scodelario is a bad-ass survivor tricking those savage alligators may not an easy task as she conquer them in the floodwaters and raise to the occasion to save his father in every turn:) The cinematography is superb you can feel the storm intensity as the rain pour in a small town and alligators in action on the rising flood level add fear from the sewage to the house tension:)
Movie News: Alexandre Aja delivers plenty of bite-sized fun in this literal monster in the house horror-thriller. Crawl is a snappy, little B-movie that preys on people’s most primal fears and instincts when comes to surviving against bigger deadlier animal. Deftly directed by Alexandre Aja, Crawl is perhaps more general audience-friendly romp from the horror director than even his gory but giddy remake of Piranha. A good chunk of Crawl takes place in the basement or crawlspace of Dave’s home which instantly begs for suspension of disbelief as I don’t believe houses in the Florida Keys are known to even have either but hey movies and Aja makes sure to milk every inch of that dark, dingy space for maximum nerve-wracking effect. Aja masterfully ratchets up the claustrophobia of being trapped in such a seemingly inescapable setting as well as the fear of not knowing what might be lurking around you in the dark or in the water. If you’re afraid of ever running into a wild animals then Crawl will make you hope you never do:0)
