In Hollywood, Blumhouse Productions is leading the charge in horror. Whether they’re handing the creative control over to emerging filmmakers or teaming up with directors like M. Night Shymalan and James Wan, the company’s commitment is to original stories and low budgets, opting to “give that money to the filmmakers so they can execute on the story.” For Blumhouse’s first big studio film of 2024, Night Swim, Collider’s Steve Weintraub spoke with executive producer and BH Vice President of Feature Film Development, Ryan Turek, about what slate of movies they’ve got cooking up for the upcoming years.
First up is Night Swim, a horror that spotlights writer-director Bryce McGuire for his feature debut, based on a 2014 short he worked on with co-director Rod Blackhurst. Expanding on the original four-minute short, the Blumhouse film stars Wyatt Russell (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier) and Oscar-nominee, Kerry Condon (The Banshees of Inisherin), as Ray and Eve Waller, a young couple who move their family into a new home. Ray is a former major league baseball player, recently forced into retirement due to an injury, who believes the move and the sparkling backyard pool will be good for them, and provide him with physical therapy in hopes of returning to the big leagues. Just below the surface, however, their home and pool hide dark secrets, and a sinister force is waiting to drag them down with it.
During their conversation, inspired by the film’s promise to ruin swimming pools for a new generation, Turek shares the influential horror movies that led him to a career dedicated to celebrating the genre, from Fangoria to co-creating DreadCentral, to the offices of Blumhouse. The producer shares his passion for filmmaking as well as updates on some of Blumhouse’s most anticipated projects, like M3GAN 2.0, the Five Nights at Freddy’s sequel, The Black Phone 2, and the video game adaptation in the works, Dead by Daylight.
