As someone who has endured the swampy marshes and hurricane-prone dystopia of Florida, I can safely say that Crawl is not so much a complete work of fiction from two legendary horror veterans, but rather, a sort of worst-case scenario film which takes the dangers of hurricanes and alligators, and mashes them together.
