It did, via the crazy guy’s drawings.

The drawings were just that, drawings. I would’ve liked to see it in the flesh. Not on paper.

b/c you can't reach beyond a "Godzilla vs. Mothra" type of film?

The film, imo, is metaphorical. It's more than some big and bad scary creature, PP. Can you see that?

It's an interesting story but very hard to execute on film, especially the part when they fell in the river. How on earth would they be able to survive that trek to the school in that climate while wet?

Didn’t love the ending. All the people happily frolicking in the blind school’s green space made it look like a horror film that suddenly morphed into a Hallmark special.

Sandra is almost 30 years older than her love interest and that makes her a hero to me.

I liked the novel much better. The strategy of never showing what the threat really is worked great in the book because the author, Josh Malerman, did such an amazing job of establishing setting, and also the tension and torture inside the characters' heads. Ever since I learned that it was being made into a movie, I was curious about how these details could possibly be rendered to screen, and I see that, no, it was not possible to transfer what the author created to movie form.

My fave book by Malerman, though, is A House at the Bottom of A Lake. This one would be impossible to make into a movie, but I encourage anyone who likes to read to try it out.

I’m excited to see it - if only because I liked A Quiet Place and it reminds me of that.

loved it

loved the symbolism, the intense scenes, and the acting

Read the book.

I assumed the blind people can farm or forage safely.

I liked it. It kept me entertained while I ran on my treadmill anyway.

Horrible

I didn’t like that they never showed the creatures.

Just watched it today. I liked the ending but wasnt thrilled with it. How are they going to survive?
