Newborn twins Ezekiel and Evangelina Cavoli played unnamed Baby Abbott. Everyone on set was very nervous about putting the babies in the padded box, but the parents were supportive and the scenes were shot as quickly as possible to minimize any possible risk. See more »

The corn plants in the fields are green at day 472. This means they were planted in the current season. They have a full silo of corn, so there is no reason they would have needed to plant an entire field of corn to feed their small family. Also the perfectly aligned rows imply that they were planted by machine, which would have been extremely loud. See more »
The main title appears after about nine minutes, created to look as though it is made from sand, and is the only on-screen credit aside from the opening production logos. See more »
A Quiet Place starts with racking up the tension which doesn't let up in a nerve shredding 1hr 25. The premise is simple, we get no back story as to why the family have to stay silent, but within 5 minutes with an unexpected moment we can see what the consequence of making noise is. From then on our focus is on this one family as they strive to stay safe in what seems like a helpless situation.
I enjoyed this film immensely. I found it to be nerve shredding and so tense to watch i had to try catch my breath a few occasions as i had been holding it so long. It is the silence for a majority of the film that makes this work and i was grateful for a silent cinema hall (this i will go back to) I found myself caring for the characters (rare in horror) and hoping for a positive outcome. It also doesn't suffer from an overlong run time and imo is not for the mostpart predictable.Those who like a decent movie monster i feel will be pleasantly surprised i believe as well.
Those who are looking for gory in your face horror may struggle to engage and i think coming back to my point earlier if you end up in a hall full of restless noisy people filling the silence the tension will somewhat be lost.
A solid 8/10
