Swimfan is the epitome of early 2000's suspense/thriller films and I love it! This was available on HBO Max when I recorded this and now you can watch it on Cinemax or rent or buy it from Amazon. The film stars Jesse Bradford and Erika Christensen with the plot of the movie being that a high school senior with a promising swimming career has a one-night stand with consequences. So let this film be a lesson to everyone, in the words of Anna Kendrick in Pitch Perfect, "Make good choices." I think everyone will either have forgotten who else was in this film or will be surprised by who else was in this film, maybe both. 

The Swimming Pool (Original Recipe from thelosttikilounge.com):

Ingredients

• 1 1/3 oz White Rum
• 2/3 oz Vodka
• 1/3 oz Blue Curaçao
• 2/3 oz Cream of Coconut
• 1/3 oz Sweet Cream
• 1 1/3 oz Pineapple Juice
• 1 Fresh Pineapple Wedge
• 2 Maraschino Cherries - with stems if possible

Directions

1. Pour all ingredients into a shaker - apart from the Blue Curacao. Then add enough crushed ice to show above the surface of the liquid.
2. Shake vigorously for around 20 seconds to ensure the cream is fully mixed, strain and pour into a chilled Hurricane or Highball glass filled with crushed ice
3. Then, carefully pour the Blue Curaçao over the drink so it filters down through the cocktail. If it continues to sit on the surface, give it a very slight stir, just enough to help it dissipate, but not enough to blend it in.
4. To make your garnish cut fresh pineapple into a wedge (leave the outer skin on for a nice contrast), place two cherries onto a cocktail stick and push into the pineapple, make a slit in the bottom of the wedge and place onto the side of the glass.

Drinking Game (Tumblr.com, this was a mix of two different drinking games):

Drink when...

• Anyone swims/goes in the pool.
• Someone’s full name is mentioned, ie: “Madison Bell,” “Ben Cronin,” etc.
• The swim meet and/or Stanford is referenced, the scouts are shown.
• Christopher Dante shows up.
• Anyone is injured and/or dies.
• There is shitty rock music playing.
• There’s a dude in a speedo on screen.
• Anything sexual happens.
• They say, “Ben.”
• They say, “Madison.”
• Madison shows signs of insanity.
• Madison is a bitch.
• Similarly, drink anytime someone says, “bitch.”
• You see evidence that this movie was made in the early 2000s.
• Someone says, “swim” or, “pool.” (Buuulge)
• You see a computer screen.
• The technology is outdated.
• Take a Shot every time Madison tries to kill someone (spoiler alert).
