They already made that movie! It was called A Quiet Place!it was about monsters&sense of hearing!
Oh what a brilliant idea,let’s make monsters sight based instead oooooo we’re Hollywood we’re fucking brilliant ??
Consider this a "the book was better" argument of sorts.

Let's not forget about 'The Silence'.
prevnextMy biggest issue with so many people calling Bird Box a ripoff of A Quiet Place (aside from BB being released 4 years before AQP) is that AQP is 100% a ripoff of Tim Lebbon's novel The Silence. Change the setting, keep everything else and it's literally just The Silence.

A mixture of things.
prevnextBirdBox was a mix between a ripoff of the happening a ripoff of the mist and a ripoff of a quiet place

Rip-off question or not, still worth watching.
prev"Stay silent. Stay alert. Stay blindfolded." I was ready to cast #BirdBox aside as A Quiet Place ripoff. What I found was harrowing & tense movie.1 of #SandraBullock's best roles in a long time. If the 2 kids don't pull at your heart strings check to see if you have a pulse. pic.twitter.com/0GJayXxj44
