Silver Screen Weekly - What's Coming Up At The Cinema From Friday 5th January 2024

 
Our film critic and media correspondent has been looking and trawling the new releases. Here's what you can see on the big screen this week.


From Friday 5th January 2024

Night Swim (15)
Bryce McGuire directs this feature length version of his own 2014 short film in Night Swim, from Blumhouse. Starring Wyatt Russell and Kerry Condon, this supernatural horror sees a suburban family move into a new home with a pool. After renovating their new home, they soon discover that this pool has more to it than meets the eye and seems to be particularly infested with nefarious and dangerous spirits. Far more than a killer pool movie, this paranormal chiller drags you beneath the waters and constantly offers up breathless surprises to kick off 2024 at the movies.
