Overrated

Rating: 5/10 (11 April 2018)

Started well. Very atmospheric, suspenseful, the usual 'things jumping out at you' scares, but it just went downhill at the end. Blind aliens can hear a sparrow fart at 200 metres, and attack with great speed & strength. They seem to have some kind of sonar, with basic spatial awareness to navigate around houses, but cant tell when someone is slowly backing away from them. They can hear a glass break from god-knows where, but cant hear someone breathing quietly from 20 centimetres away.
And the people KNOW that loud, constant noises, like a bubbling creek or waterfall, or living underground, can cover up normal noise like talking. And then choose to live in a big open farmhouse with no attempts at sound-proofing. And go everywhere in bare feet, because that makes more sense than nice strong shoes wrapped in cloth.
And then, they have a complex setup of fireworks setup to distract the aliens that find their farm, & draw them away, which the kid has to run through the alien-riddled field & set off. Rather than a tape-player on the other side of the field connected via a dozen extension cords. Or a bell on a string. Both of which could have been set-off from within the house.
And finally, the indestructible aliens that live by tracking sound are made vulnerable by sonic feedback from a tiny hearing aid.
Honestly, the whole ending was a bit like 'Signs' meets 'Mars Attacks'
