VISUAL REVIEW
The chaos monster has always been identified with stormy waters. Think of Rahab in the Bible, Godzilla, Jaws, etc. These mythic stories speak to something primal deep within all of us. ‘Crawl’ is a wonderful ‘chaos monster’ film with a terrific performance by Kaya Scodelario. You will be on the edge of your seat.
