Rising Tide

About This Movie

Rising Tide is an intriguing blend of drama and thriller, weaving a rather tense atmosphere around a group of friends on Lindisfarne. The setting itself is almost a character, with its ghostly reputation and the isolation that comes with it. The film captures that carefree holiday vibe, but it quickly spirals into something darker—a real sense of dread starts to creep in. The pacing feels natural, reflecting the ebb and flow of their interactions, but once the tension builds, it’s relentless. Practical effects are used to enhance the unsettling moments, making them feel grounded rather than fantastical. The performances are decent, especially from the lead, who brings a genuine sense of fear and uncertainty. It's less about jump scares and more about the creeping anxiety of what lurks just beneath the surface.
