Shopping with family: The crisps remains on shelf, even batteries of toy car. The strict “no” of parents, underlined with a resolute hand movement, is not a pedagogical measure but a sheer survival instinct. Silently, family sneaks through small supermarket, only essentials ends up in shopping basket. When parents (John Krasiński, Emily Blunt) and ir three children, four-year-old Beau (Cade Woodward), eleven year old Marcus (Noah Jupe) and teenage daughter Regan (Millicent Simmonds), step onto street, she receives roaring silence outside. The world looks like extinct, remnants of a formerly intact civilization line streets of small town in upstate New York.

John Krasiński’s Third directorship a quiet Placeetabliert with his opening sequence an all too familiar post-apocalyptic scenario: a newspaper headline gives a vague indication that something has roused mankind. But really troubling of se first few minutes is oppressive silence and nasty premonition that even slightest noise could have deadly consequences. Krasiński and Blunt, also married in real life, play alert parents in permanent Survivalmodus. Thus, when in middle of forest suddenly toy of youngest cuts through silence ( little one has secretly let batteries go), it is already clear that this excursion will not go out lightly – a feeling of eternity before a lightning-fast creature becomes Naked horror of parents snatching boy.

It reveals some of America’s sensitivities when a horror film after anor storms US charts. Last year, racism satire turned out to get out all performance predictions at box office, in summer Stephen King filming made it most successful horror film of all time – in a sense as a replica of horror clown in White House – and Last weekend, a quiet place with Black Panr ousted only blockbuster of year that surpassed commercial expectations, from top of movie charts. Even Black Panr has already drawn some profound political essays in USA. It is no coincidence that underestimated horror film once again proved to be a trump card for Hollywood. When nation crisis, horror is close to grasp. The last big wave with degenerate slashers and precarious zombies experienced US cinema in 1970s, to wedding of Vietnam and Watergate.

The merits of horror film can be studied at a quiet Placebesonders beautiful, you don’t even have to try politics. Krasiński proves to be a profound connoisseur of genre mechanics – which was also true for Jordan Peeles get out. A quiet Placeetabliert early on what threat is and how to fend for it. The film plays a year after Beau’s death, Evelyn is pregnant again. The obvious question of how to attract a baby in a world where even faintest noise can be fatal is constantly vibrating – answer is as pragmatic as it is brilliant. A quiet place draws his suspense from problem of how to deal with this limitation in everyday life.

The Abbotts have set up in complete silence in a forest hut and adapted organization of ir family accordingly. They communicate in sign language, which y have probably done ir whole life, because Regan is deaf and dumb. The film owes its most memorable horror moments to its handicap in a noiseless world. The teenager is in his defiance phase, bloodthirsty aliens – fleshed almond bread fractals full of pulsating muscles and tooth reinforced body openings – are nothing against puberty.
In principle, a quiet place is about how one can be good parents to his children, while it is actually about bare survival. No wonder that Krasiński – Trump Hin, Trump – has struck a nerve with audience. His film is staged as efficiently as a B-movie (almost 90 minutes), with gorgeous obscene-slimy monsters and most beautiful mute “jump scares” of film history.
