Quiet Terror, what more could you want???

Rating: 9/10 (7 April 2018)

I don't believe I've ever felt so much emotion with terror while watching a horror thriller in my life unless I count Jaws. I still can't go into the water at the beach to this day after seeing that incredible film way back in 1975.
Now back to this brilliant film that showcases the directing talent of John Krasinsky who also shares a co-writing credit & stars in it along with his wife in real life, Emily Blunt, who plays his character's wife in the movie. It's a swift punch to the gut from the get go & from then on, I was submerged into a post apocalyptic nightmare on a farm, (& of course, the woods), that literally scared the daylights out of me for the rest of the movie. The high tension woven throughout the story was so extremely intense, I actually covered my eyes & ears at times, even with it being a relatively quiet film. Just goes to show that you don't have to use a deafening soundtrack to make a successful scary movie..
