10 Overlooked 2019 Films That You Really Need To See

Crawl sees Kaya Scodelario (of Skin's Effy fame) faced with the prospect of evading the threat of a group of merciless alligators who, thanks to a freak hurricane, have held her and her father (Barry Pepper) hostage in their own home.

Yeah, it's easy to see how this one could have escaped your attention.

While not the worst premise in cinematic history, it definitely feels like the synopsis of a straight-to-Syfy animal horror feature. With that being said, it's within this b-movie expectation that this film actually becomes, well, a bit good.

The reveal that the title of the film is alluding to both Scodelario's Hayley being a swimming virtuoso and the mode of transport chosen by the terrifying beasts - when not accommodated by H2O - is a giggle inducer. Once Hayley begins to utilise her ingenuity and swimming nous, to combat the monsters, the film takes a raucous turn and incorporates everything from shower-parkour to pistol-whipping, making for a late-night romp for the ages.

Oh and, if you stick around for the credits, you'll be serenaded by Bill Hayley's See You Later, Alligator - what more could you ask for?
