Alright, so you've most likely seen the prequel as well as the sequel to A Quiet Place. However, have you ever given any thought to the precise date of this extraterrestrial invasion? Now let's go specific: everything began on June 17, 2020.
You're undoubtedly wondering how we came to that conclusion. A calendar in the first A Quiet Place film indicates that October 3, 2021, is Day 473 after the invasion started. It's a bit of a riddle. Add it all up, and presto! It's the day of your invasion.
That first day is the focus of the Prequel A Quiet Place: Day One. It's rather intense. We witness the aliens' crash-landing on Earth and the speed at which things descended into chaos. Imagine "War of the Worlds," only more eerie and sound-sensitive.
People were caught completely off guard, and the aliens immediately began to wreak devastation. The most important thing to keep in mind is that the aliens could practically hear a pin drop since they had super-hearing and no vision. Naturally, this made it extremely difficult to survive.
There was pure mayhem in the early hours following the alien landing. The aliens were everywhere, and humans had no idea what they were up against. The aliens had free reign since everyone was freaking out and creating a ridiculous amount of noise.
Silence was the key to Survival in an alien-populated world where hearing is extremely sensitive. After the initial attack, only those who were aware of this rule managed to survive. Everyone seems to need to adjust to a new set of survival guidelines.
Keeping track of the intricate timeline of the A Quiet Place universe might be challenging. There is the first film, the follow-up, and now the prequel. However, you must watch them in this order:
1. A Quiet Place: Day One - This one is the first you should see because it takes place on the day the aliens arrive.
2. A Quiet Place: In this one, the Abbott family struggles to survive as the world undergoes a transformation.
3. A Quiet Place Part II - This film builds on the environment that was created in the first film and takes place soon after its occurrences.
Alright, so after the chaos of the first day, things didn't exactly get better. As the human population began to decline, civilization essentially fell apart. Imagine being stranded in a post-apocalyptic Earth after escaping an Alien Invasion.
The majority of the military's weapons just bounced off the aliens when they attempted to fight them. It seemed as though they were up against a completely unidentified menace to which humanity was unprepared. The people had to adapt in order to survive, and being silent was essential.
