Tide

The film constructs its dread from a dual threat: the relentlessly rising tide and a primordial menace lurking beneath the sand. It relies on the visceral fear of being swallowed, both by nature and by something far older, using the setting itself as a character of quiet malice.

What lingers after the credits is a palpable sense of unease, a reminder that the most familiar ground can become a trap. A lean, mean exercise in coastal horror. — MovieFinder Editorial
