Crawl (2019, dir. Alexandre Aja)

A student and her estranged father are trapped in a house full of alligators during a hurricane. A tense and fun single-location horror thriller that makes the most of its excellent effects and actors, wringing every last sliver of tension from its gleefully B-movie premise. Recommended.
