Don't Speak (2020) is a horror-thriller film that follows a group of friends who arrive at a remote house, only to find themselves trapped in a terrifying situation where making noise could mean death. The film revolves around a simple yet intense premise: a mysterious entity lurks in the shadows, attacking anyone who makes a sound. As the group struggles to survive, they uncover dark secrets about the place and the force hunting them.

The story begins when a group of young people visits a secluded house in the countryside, expecting a relaxing getaway. However, their plans take a sinister turn when they realize that the nearby town is completely abandoned, and the few remaining locals seem terrified. Their confusion turns to horror when one of their friends is suddenly attacked and killed by an unseen creature after making a loud noise. It quickly becomes clear that the entity preys on sound, forcing them into a deadly game of silence.

As fear sets in, the survivors attempt to barricade themselves inside the house, whispering and using hand signals to communicate. Desperate for answers, they search for clues and find newspaper clippings and old journals hinting at the town's dark history. They learn that the entity has haunted the area for years, feeding on those who make noise. The house they are trapped in once belonged to a family that mysteriously vanished, leaving behind eerie warnings about staying silent.

Tensions rise as paranoia grips the group. Some want to make a run for it, while others believe staying put is their best chance. However, as fear and desperation take over, mistakes are made. A dropped object, a stifled scream, or even the sound of breathing too loudly can summon the creature. One by one, they are picked off, their deaths brutal and swift. The remaining survivors realize they must outsmart the entity by using sound to their advantage, setting traps and distractions to escape.

The film reaches its climax as the last few survivors make a final, desperate attempt to flee. They uncover a crucial piece of information—a weakness in the creature that allows them to fight back. Using this knowledge, they create a plan to lure the entity into a trap. The ending leaves room for interpretation, as while some may escape, the threat is never fully eliminated, hinting that the horror could continue. Don't Speak delivers a tense, nerve-wracking experience with its use of silence and suspense, keeping viewers on edge until the very end.
