A Quiet Place, a newly released horror film is about sound-sensitive monsters that hunt humans. The film centres around a family trying to stay alive by living as silently as possible. It is directed by John Krasinki who plays a lead role alongside his real-life wife Emily Blunt. The script has very little dialogue and lots of dramatic tension. With USD 50 million opening, Paramount Pictures’ A Quiet Place scored the second best domestic debut of 2018.
But, the movie is unlikely to be great for cinema popcorn sales, as people have been shaming other movie-goers for snacking on food items or even breathing too loudly. The silent movie is making people aware of the noises that they normally make in a packed movie theatre. People are sharing their experiences of watching the movie on Twitter and it is hilarious.

Saw a quiet place. Was really good apart from some dude loudly eating nachos for the first 20 min. The movie is (you guessed it) quiet so we all could hear every mash of his chewing.

A heads up - if you go and see ‘A quiet place’ at the cinema, don’t buy any snacks. I managed about 3 kernels of popcorn throughout 🍿 ❌

People also celebrated the film for using a real-life deaf actress Millicent Simmonds for the character to play the daughter. Scott Beck, co-screenwriter of A Quiet Place said, "She came to set and taught everyone sign language. It was really amazing and brought an extra depth to the film."
