In 2018, “A Quiet Place” took the world by storm with its haunting story of a family surviving in a world dominated by sound-sensitive creatures. Three years later, “A Quiet Place: Day One” – the prequel to this horror franchise – has officially been released, taking audiences back to the dark early days of the invasion and the Abbott family’s arduous journey.
A World in Ruins and Silent Screams:
The film opens with a chaotic scene in a small American town. Screams pierce the air as ferocious creatures emerge, attacking brutally and spreading terror. Lee Abbott (John Krasinski), Evelyn Abbott (Emily Blunt), Regan Abbott (Millicent Simmonds), and Marcus Abbott (Noah Jupe) witness this horrific tragedy and are lucky to survive.
The family is forced to relocate to an abandoned farmhouse, where they begin their new life of silence and hiding. Lee, with his ability to communicate in sign language, along with Evelyn and Regan – their deaf daughter – train in special survival skills, learning how to move and communicate without making a sound.
