Husband and wife move into a house near a canal (The Canal), and raise their kid there. One day when the husband, David, is archiving a film he finds out a murder happened in his home which is unsettling (a husband killed his wife)! David begins to believe his wife is cheating on him which she very much is, he catches her in the act and his first thought is to bludgeon the guy to death. David is able to avoid doing this but is plagued with some special visitors when he is next to The Canal. The next day his cheating wife doesn’t show up back home… Dun dun dun! “People always suspect the husband… because it’s always the husband. Every fucking time.”

They find her body in The Canal! It appears that her heel snapped and she fell in and drowned. David continues to learn more dark history about The Canal. A dark figure is also coming up a lot in his footage and in his life, David is rather haunted. He is so convinced that the bad man is coming for him that he sends his son away but then sees the dark figure over video chat! The nanny is scared and wants to leave but isn’t sure what to do. She gets attacked by an unknown force in the night and David locks her and the kid in the closet so she totally thinks David attacked her so she’s gone.

David attempts to capture the thing on film and even puts powder on his floors so that he will see the footprints left behind by whomever is in his home! The cops find a hammer with his fingerprints on it but his wife didn’t die via hammer so I don’t know that it’s fair that he’s in any trouble other than for littering. David follows the path that he found when he opened up the wall and he follows the tunnel behind his house that leads to The Canal.

He finds some creepy stuff there and his coworker tries to talk some sense into him but he just ends up feeding her to The Canal Creature. Oh, but suddenly David remembers it was him all along who killed his wife and coworker, woops! But The Canal demons made him do it and then they dragged him down with them into the depths. I guess the dad became one of the demons too because he encourages Billy to kill himself so that he can be with his parents again.
