Waterborne

About This Movie

Waterborne is a curious blend of drama and horror set against the backdrop of a small, seemingly idyllic country town. There's something unsettling about the atmosphere, especially as the local ranger stumbles upon this mysterious algae infiltrating the water supply. The pacing has a good build-up, tension slowly creeping in as night falls, and you get a sense of dread that’s palpable. The performances, while not overly flashy, have a grounded feel that enhances the story’s realism. Practical effects are used effectively to depict the town's descent into chaos, which is refreshing in an age of heavy CGI. It’s distinct in how it combines environmental themes with personal struggle, leaving you pondering long after the credits roll.

Interesting take on environmental horror.Atmospheric build-up with strong local performances.Practical effects create a sense of authenticity.
