Interesting concept, HORRENDOUS writing, choices, and acting

Rating: 1/10 (12 December 2018)

The very first scene sets the entire mood of the movie -- a series of incredulously terrible decisions. This continues painfully so throughout the entire movie, and has you actively wishing for the death of the ENTIRE cast. How can anyone, as stupid as these people are, have survived for so long? Truly incredible.
Knock-off monsters from Half Life that attack sounds no louder than trees rustling? I can.... kinda stomach that.
The decisions made by the entire cast? Absolutely mind-mindbogglingly terrible and irritating.
The sound level that the creatures react to has absolutely no rhyme or reason. There obviously isn't a decible limit, it seems to only be "story-arc driven sound effects" that they react to. HOW DO THEY KNOW? And how/why they even react to it in the first place...... Well, don't expect this movie to have any semblance of intelligence behind it.
Oh, and make sure not to disturb the precious sand! PRECIOUS SAND that is unaffected by: rain, snow, wind, continued walking, or even falling leafs... somehow..... Who wrote this, and then who green-lit this, and then who focus-grouped this? How were all of these people so BAD at their job?
