Review of Crawl

Crawl (I) (2019)
6/10
A: alligators all around
15 May 2024
One of the many horror flicks about nature running amok depicts a swimmer and her dad besieged by alligators during a violent hurricane. Alexandre Aja's "Crawl" has a lot of the things that we tend to see in these sorts of movies - and it's rife with factual errors - but Aja knows how to pace it right and maintain the ideal level of tension. After watching the movie, you'll probably want to avoid Florida at all costs. Hell, the rising sea levels just might make the state look like what the movie depicts.

Oh, and props to Maurice Sendak for writing a book whose title inspired my review's title. The book got incorporated into the 1975 TV special "Really Rosie".
