Dragging this increasingly disturbing derailed train back onto the tracks I just watched a movie!
“Hush” (2016)
It’s a very familiar home invasion thriller plot (that must surely qualify as a genre in its own right by now?) and all the usual things happen. But the twist with this one is that the protagonist is deaf and it really makes a difference to how the two main characters behave. I can’t say more without spoiling it but this is a well thought out, smart movie. It mercifully doesn’t give the villian any kind of backstory or motive - he’s just some lunatic doing bad things because he likes to do bad things.
And at just over 80 minutes it doesn’t overstay its welcome either! It’s worth your time if you’re in the mood for a bit of tension!
I give it 5 creepy remote cabins out of 5.
