Three young thieves decide to do a supposedly easy robbery: rob a blind man's house, but it turns into a night of terror as they discover that their target is a very dangerous person. This is the simple but captivating introduction to Fede Alvarez's captivating new horror film Don't Breathe, best known for directing Evil Dead, one of the most exciting and bizarre films you can see .
The story takes place in Detroit and centers on Rocky (Jane Levy), who is determined to escape from her bad life even if that means breaking into the homes of wealthy people with her boyfriend Money (Daniel Zovatto) and boyfriend Alex (played by Dylan Minnette). Their last big operation is the robbery of "the blind man" (played by Stephen Lang), an elderly former war hero with a small fortune obtained from a legal settlement hidden inside his home in an abandoned neighborhood.
Unfortunately for the thieves, however, the "blind man" soon proves that he can turn the course of events in his favor. Commented Alex and Rocky inside this house strongly fortified awful. And it turns out Money was right when he said: "If a man is blind, it does not necessarily mean that he is a saint." Bad choices made by young thieves lead to very dire consequences, and Alvarez manages to make us feel every painful moment in the film without needing to resort to the bloody horror and torture scenes of the Saw series .
Director Alvarez and cinematographer Pedro Luque lets the camera move across the "blind man's" house as if it floats around, allowing viewers to pay attention to enough hints about specific objects (such as a tool hanging on the wall, for example) that may play an important role. Later in the movie. One of the film's most powerful scenes is a scene set in the basement where Alex and Rocky grope their way in the dark in an attempt not to run into "the blind man", whose sharpened hearing gives him a major advantage.
Not Excels Do not Breathe in creating a sense of tension and dread only, but also to manipulate the sympathy of viewers. Rocky's yearning for a better life for her and her niece is matched only by her greed and despair, and Levy balances well in making us love her even at her worst. Alex's character also attracts even more sympathy from Rocky and her boyfriend, Money . He clearly has feelings for Rocky , and he is the group's moral compass if logic isn't between them.
Alex and Rocky may have sympathy sides, but they are ultimately criminals. So it is natural to sympathize with the "blind man" and his image as a decorated war hero who suffered his own tragedies. It represents the image of global fear of someone breaking into your home late at night, as he has every right to defend ... Then his dark and deep secret, which we will not mention here, is revealed so as not to burn you anything!
Stephen Lang, who brings a sense of suspense and tension to the film, hijacks the limelight by performing his near-silent role for most of the film, which more than sufficiently compensates for his inability to see with his physical performance and toughness, so much so that you might feel that those three thieves have broken into Stick from Daredevil's house instead So.
Conclusion
Director Fede Alvarez presents us with a terrifying horror movie full of tension and excitement with Don't Breathe, which touches many of the fears of primitive man, so that he can prove himself as one of the best directors of this type of films, which will make us expect all his films in the coming years.

I think I read a news item in which they were thinking of doing a second part. I'm not sure if it's true, or what the status of that project will be. I really like this movie
Yes, there is a second part of the movie that has been announced that will be released this year
