The Beach House (II) (2019)
7/10
A creepy low budget horror film ruined by the runtime n abrupt ending. Was it the Thermophiles? Naegleria fowleri or guinea worms?

This cud have been a good 45 mins short film a la Neil Blomkamp's short film like Zygote n others but i dont know y the filmmaker filled it up with tedious scenes n boring chit chat. A young man takes his girlfriend to his dad's beach house to spend some quality time and finds it peaceful when they dont encounter any neighbors around but they r surprised to encounter an older couple inside their house. The four fellas smoke pot n enjoy the nite with music but r unaware of a mysterious infection spreading around. The film starts off slow but keeps u engrossed as one gets curious to kno what is the reason of the infection n how it will end. But many will get annoyed as the reason is never explained properly apart from the turbulence inside the ocean causing the organisms to come up. Another very annoying thing is the abrupt ending. The fog scene n the trees getting bluish is a bit silly. There is a very creepy scene that will have ur skin crawling, a la Guinea worm... I liked the film as i love reading about microorganisms n a fan of movies based on infections but i will not recommend it as it has nothing new to offer, suspense n tension is missing n forget about any kills.
