The plot is developed early. Nina (Margaret Ying Drake ) is drowned in Lake Argo in the very first scene and becomes a siren drowning folks who take a dip in the lake. Not sure why it happened. Tom (Evan Dumouchel ) rents a fisherman's cabin on the lake. He has a heavy Christian background. He is from North Carolina and a mute. His throat got crushed while he was swimming, sorry can't picture it. He doesn't like water. Al (MacLeod Andrews ) is a neighbor whose husband was killed by the siren. He wants revenge and debates between the mini-Trejo machete or Maxwell's silver hammer. Meanwhile, our unlikely couple becomes smitten with each other during the times she is not trying to drown him. Tom is a good listener.
The plot is given to us fast. The two male characters are developed. We know little of the fully clothed Nina, except she doesn't wear shoes. The film was too slow for me. You could fast forward to the last 10 minutes or so. Because once the plot is quickly developed, it stays in a rut.
Guide: No swearing sex, or nudity.
