Back in July 2004 I rented a movie called The Pool. I hailed it in the old forum as a “superb B-slasher.”
And you know what? It holds up. I’m watching it right this second. This is my second all-time viewing.
Also, HOLY SHIT! Super young Isla Fisher and James McAvoy are in this!

Yeah, excellent film with a cast who became huge!

I really wish this would've had some better artwork for the video releases (maybe even something that sort of rips something else off). Sales would've been bigger and a sequel could've happened.

Yeah, I always thought a sequel was a shoe-in, but... :-(

Yeah, I always thought a sequel was a shoe-in, but... :-( With DTV slashers in the early 2000s, it was all about that cover art, baby! BM's hockey-masked, chainsaw-wielding maniac suckered me in -- and I'll be eternally grateful. Granted, the silky-blue art on the U.K. release would've done it, too.
