Below

Below (2026) arrives as a mystery steeped in salt air, suspicion, and the kind of coastal quiet that can hide almost anything. Set in a small Newfoundland town where everyone knows everyone—until they don’t—the film draws its tension from the thin line between local legend and lived reality.

After unsettling encounters in the water and a growing sense that the shoreline is no longer safe, a hardened fisherman finds his family pulled into the center of a widening threat. The mystery isn’t only about what’s in the ocean, but what fear does to a community that relies on one another to survive harsh weather, hard work, and long-held grudges.

Josh Hartnett anchors the story with a weathered, watchful presence, while Mackenzie Davis brings a grounded intensity that keeps the film emotionally tethered as the town’s nerves fray. Charlie Heaton, Rohan Campbell, Kaleb Horn, Willow Kean, and Ruby Stokes round out a cast built for secrets, second-guessing, and the uneasy feeling that every conversation has an undertow.

What makes Below compelling is how it treats the sea as more than a setting—it’s a living boundary that the town depends on, yet can’t control. The film’s mystery thrives on incremental dread: strange signs, shifting loyalties, and the question of whether the real danger is a creature offshore or the choices made on land when panic takes hold.
