    A Quiet Place

    so what exactly are they hiding from in this movie? only clues we have from the trailer is strange claw marks I think you can rule out Vampires. Werewolves. and/or Ghosts my guess is either zombies or an Alien-like creature but that sounds too predictable I just hope this doesn't end up being another Blair Witch/Village stink Bomb

    Crackheads. If they know you're there and you make a sound, they'll want to mow your lawn for 3 dollars.

    So, im pretty sure this is stolen from an old horror short story i read in....... fangoria maybe? If i find it ill post it.
    But if it is, its a demon monster of some kind.

    Hopefully it's some sort of Eldritch abomination.

    I'll give this a watch. I've seen the trailer a few times and it did indeed intrigue my interest.
    I can't explain why, but it seems like it would be good to see in the theater!

    Great movie. The lack of dialog really did get to me after awhile. Given its premise, there are a few jump scares in the beginning, but not too many.

    They aren't hiding, but they are trying to avoid making any noise; since the creatures attack anything making noises. Hard to describe what the creature looks like. Movie is pretty good, but nothing special.

    Like, so many people out there were trying to track this down. And it just...got delivered on a tweet. What the hell.

    saw it Friday night TBH the creature looks like some type of Demon/Alien monster there are three of these creatures in the movie the only weakness these things have is they cant stand high pitched noise basically high pitched static from a radio petty much makes them vulnerable the film ends on a cliff hanger after the first creature is killed possibly setting up for a sequel if this one makes enough money

    Really good movie, definitely the best this year, in terms of horror.

    It's pretty decent as far as creature horror goes, but I had a few issues with the survivalibility aspects of the family at times. Some seemed rather well thought out, while others seemed to be kind of randomly or superficially prioritized. It's still a fun movie though, and i'd easily recommend it.


    Spoiler...
    Why go through the trouble of going barefoot through all of this? Apparently nobody thought of using foam cushion or comparable padding of some sort tied or fixed to the bottom of shoes as a sound buffer. I think this approach would've been even quieter than going barefoot. Call me old fashion, but post apocalyptia is really no place to be going shoeless for any length of time.

    Also, nobody seemed to use rocks or other throwable items on any kind of consistent basis as decoy devices. How would this not be your number 1 go-to device in most every situation where you're pitted against blind creatures that only act on sound. I'd have had no less than a dozen throwables on me at any given time.

    I understand the sign language aspect throughout the flick due to the daughter being deaf, but they kind of over played it a bit. Soft whispers or speak probably would've been fine in most situations when you consider how much noise they usually made shuffling around the place on a daily basis. I don't think a soft low voice face to face would've pied pipered any creature action.

    The mother hides out in the bathtub but doesn't have the sense to close the bathroom door? Apparently the creatures have an aversion to peeping into showers because that's where the mother finally ended up. Maybe she crawled to the shower after the creature left as a final hiding place waiting for help. Either way - her not closing the bathroom door to begin with was kind of stupid.

    The daughter is free to wander off like that? She might not have been allowed - but it does kind of seem like there was little effort to keep stricter tabs on the chillins whereabouts at all times.
