Infinity Pool (2023)
While indulging in an exclusive island getaway, novelist James Foster (Emmy winner Alexander Skarsgård from Big Little Lies) and his wealthy wife Em (Cleopatra Coleman from Rebel Moon) break the rules and venture beyond the resort grounds. But a tragic accident leaves James facing a zero-tolerance policy for crime and a horrifying choice – execution, or, for a hefty sum, watching himself die instead…
As Gabi, their seductive and mysterious guide through an unfamiliar world of hedonism, violence, and surreal horror, Mia Goth (X, Pearl, Suspiria) was nominated for the 2024 Critics Choice Super Award for Best Actress in a Horror Movie.
Along with Skarsgård, Goth was also nominated for Best Performance in a Leading Role, Drama at the 2024 Canadian Screen Awards, where Infinity Pool was up for Best Picture, and both Achievement in Direction and Original Screenplay for Brandon Cronenberg (yes, he’s the son of legendary horror auteur David Cronenberg).
Not released in South African cinemas, the adults-only horror boasts an 87% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Time Out hailing it as “one hell of a twisted ride… damn-near unmissable and, from a safe distance, addictive as all hell.”
