For fans of David Sandberg's Lights Out, Blumhouse Productions is back with another feature based on a 2014 short film. Helmed and adapted by the creators of the original, Bryce McGuire and Rod Blackhurst, Night Swim taps into viewers' fears of the unknown and what lies beneath the surface.

Starring Wyatt Russell and Oscar-nominated actress Kerry Condon, Night Swim is about a family looking for a fresh new start after their father, Ray Waller (Russell), a former major league baseball player, is forced into retirement due to an injury. Ray convinces his wife (Condon) that the move will be good for their family and is hoping to utilize the pool for physical therapy, but a malevolent spirit haunts the depths and won't rest without dragging them down with it. In addition to Russell and Condon, Night Swim also stars Amélie Hoeferle, Gavin Warren, Nancy Lenehan, and is co-produced by James Wan's Atomic Monster and Jason Blum.

Ahead of the movie's theatrical release, Collider's Steve Weintraub sat down with Russell and Condon to talk about working in the genre and the horror community. The stars reveal which movies left a lasting impression on them, discuss why audiences love to be scared, and why the supernatural elements of movies like Night Swim and The Shining go beyond surface-level scares. Condon also shares why her upcoming series with Jon Watts, Skeleton Crew, will appeal to an audience that hasn't been targeted by Star Wars before.
