    A Quiet Place is one of my favourite films. From the beginning I tried to predict the end of this film, but I made a mistake.

    Yeah, I like that it brought something new to the genre, standing out from the mush that are horror movies today.

    But! What can you recommend from these films like A Quiet Place?^_^

     

    The movie Hush, has basically the same concept of having a deaf person as a protag. Replace the monsters with a serial killer and you have that. Its pretty good albeit not as much as A Quiet Place IMO.

    I only know Spanish and English, though in my defense I can read a fair amount of French and can understand it if the person speaking it talks slowly and simply

    Kinda

    Have you heard of Duolingo? I've heard it's good but I have yet to try it

    I know a bit of Spanish. In fact, our language (Tagalog) was influenced by it. We still use words like mesa and eskwela (from escuela). Also to be fair a few words occur in both languages so you could say they are very slightly similar.

    Also yes, I do use Duolingo :wink:

    I've forgotten a lot. I lived in Frankfurt, Hanau, and Gilda as a youth (1983 to 1988). And as an adult, I lived in Bad Kreuznach, Germany for almost 2 years...

    Trilingual, already learning my fourth language, German! Any tips? :D

    Unfamiliar about the educational systems in your respective countries but currently in eighth grade/high school. Unsure about what to take but leaning on engineering possibly aerospace. Also, I hope to go to space in the future, possibly even an astronaut

    Though given the sign language, do they have subtitles, or is it just obvious gestures ?

    They have subtitles. When I watched the movie, I was scared to eat popcorn lol. Be warned, I had my heart racing during the first few minutes of the movie (maybe it's just me being really easy to scare, I had low expectations when it started.)

    Clearly I haven't watched any horrors for too long...

    They cannot scream. That alone makes for an interesting movie :wink:

    Not bad, but they should just live  on/near the river or the waterfall.

    I wonder how the monsters can filter out the sounds they've made when they move or learn when a specific sound is from the environment and not from their prey. One would think at least some of them die during a thunderstorm or when they encounter cliffs and stuff. Also they don't seem to be intelligent, as from what I've seen they don't have a brain, or at least one that is capable of higher thought and learning.

    Seems pretty tense given they can absolutely crank the music at any given moment.

    Yep. I was scared a few times during scene changes from really quiet to really loud because of the music or from the scene environment. Also I really like the way the soundtrack matches the scene perfectly and they only have music during certain times but absolute silence during others. The fact that there is very little vocal dialogue is really cool as it amplifies the little sounds in the environment and the eerie silence; you also don't find movies with that little dialogue.

    I have travelled around my country but there are still a few places to go. I don’t really know but I’d prefer to go to other countries rather than travel around here. Here we just have beaches and forests :P and there are basically only two seasons here: wet and dry so it’s not much fun. 

    I have been to Hong Kong and Singapore on vacation with my family and I really enjoyed it. Basically going to every theme park and museum we could go to. Singapore is a really high tech city and it was only when I got there that I remembered some people drove on the left side of the road. We went to Sentosa and the Singapore Flyer. In our stay at Hong Kong we went to Disneyland (it was my first time since we don't have it here) and it was awesome. We really experienced the culture there and the food was amazing.

    I really hope to visit other countries in the future. Possibly places with snow (yes I've never experienced snow) and just lie on it. I hear Japan is a really good place to travel to so thats where I would travel if I could.
