Is this movie a remake of The Happening?!

Rating: Null/10 (27 December 2018)

Seriously is this movie somehow is connected to M. Night's The Happening? Did the writer of the novel took permission from M. Night that he will write it just like M. Night's movie but with slightly different thing "we put not one but TWO pregnant women in one room".
I don't say this is a bad movie but what bothers me is that people really HATED The Happening but it seams they liked this movie... "something in the air make you say random things and then you will kill yourself, how ridiculous"
I REALLY liked The Happening I thought it was creepy and unique.
