Swimfan (2002)


In Australia, one woman is killed by a male partner or former partner a week (1), but in movies like this wholly unintelligent psycho-melodrama from Australian director John Polson, it is the women who obsess and plot against and try to kill their male partners...but only for about 90-minutes before they are summarily and "deservedly" dispatched, either impaled on a picket fence, dropped from a height onto a glass table and then really properly killed by a falling chandelier, killed in a bath and then shot pointblank, or, here, in the case of Madison the psychopath who can't swim but manages logistically difficult pool sex, left to drown.
