The Beach House

Boasting sweaty, shaky camerawork and a firm grasp on tone, Brown’s grisly indie horror flick is yet another piece of work that feels unexpectedly suited to our times.

There’s some interesting and serendipitous overlap between the film’s central horror and our present Covid-19 crisis...

As the audience's avatar, Liberato catches the requisite sense of growing despair and fear as the nature of the threat rolls in slowly like a foamy tide.

What “The Beach House” has going for it is dread, a feeling that rides along with it from its opening frames to the horror parable’s final image.

...has confidence in its ability to create strange little tensions out of ordinary moments.
