But before 12 friends from the International High School in Prague disappear to the four corners of the earth, they intend to throw the best party of their lives. The idea to stage the party in Prague's biggest swimming pool is illegal but cool. And when Gregor, the laid-back leader of the group thinks an idea is good, then no-one else from the group objects. But what begins as the night of all nights quickly turns into a life and death struggle, as the friends come to realise that death itself is on the guest list... A mysterious masked killer sets a hunt in motion that ranges through the facility's halls and corridors. As the kids panic it begins to dawn on them that the killer must be one of them...

Critic Reviews

Pablo Villaca, Cinema em Cena
Reunindo um elenco internacional de atores medíocres (dirigidos por um estreante incompetente), o filme tem um roteiro tăo absurdo que nem mesmo a heroína acredita quando descobre o motivo por trás dos assassinatos. Imagine, entăo, o espectador.

Ryan Cracknell, Apollo Guide
A generic international version of a typical American horror film.

Staci Layne Wilson, Fantastica Daily
The Pool drowned me in boredom.

Jeremiah Kipp, ToxicUniverse.com
Director Boris von Sychowski instead opts for a routine slasher film that was probably more fun to make than it is to sit through.

Literally nothing in The Pool is new, but if you grew up on the stalker flicks of the 1980's this one should appease you for 90 minutes.
