Crawl is a survival horror-thriller directed by Alexandre Aja, known for his work in the horror genre with films like *The Hills Have Eyes* and *Piranha 3D*.
The story follows **Haley Keller** (played by Kaya Scodelario), a competitive swimmer who is trying to locate her estranged father **Dave** (played by Barry Pepper) as a Category 5 hurricane hits their hometown in Florida. Haley discovers her father injured and trapped in the crawl space beneath their family home, which is quickly flooding due to the storm.
However, the rising floodwaters aren’t their only problem—large and aggressive alligators have been washed into the area by the hurricane and are now lurking in the crawl space. As the water levels rise and the alligators become more aggressive, Haley and her father must fight for survival in a deadly game of cat and mouse. The confined space, coupled with the relentless storm and the predatory alligators, creates a nerve-wracking and thrilling atmosphere throughout the film.
