The CinePearl Take
The film’s standout is its lead, a relative unknown who delivers a quietly ferocious performance, conveying dread with a single glance. Director Alex Ren’s pacing is deliberately slow‑burn, allowing the ocean’s silence to amplify each jump‑scare. At its heart, Chum asks uncomfortable questions about humanity’s exploitation of nature, making the horror feel both personal and global.
