11. A Quiet Place
This 2018 post-apocalyptic flick shows that you don’t need lines to make a successful movie. It’s about aliens who have infested the Earth and are drawn to sounds. Make the tiniest peep and a worm-like creature will pop out of the grown to gobble you right up. To get through this nightmarish hell, everybody learns sign language and does their best not to make noise.
In one scene, Evelyn (Emily Blunt) steps on a nail that’s sticking up from the ground. The question that every moviegoer asked after leaving the theater was why wasn’t the nail removed in the first place? When asked about the nail in this scene, the producers had no answer. It was just something that slipped the minds of everyone involved.
