Given the slow-building tension of A Quiet Place, there are plenty of other ways that Jaws has made its mark on the movie.
However, look hard enough and A Quiet Place apparently has a strong influence from Steven Spielberg’s classic Jaws.
Although the monsters appear at certain points in A Quiet Place, the movie puts an emphasis on the build-up rather than the big reveal.
Only in recent memory, horror has taken a big leap with unique premises like Lights Out, Hush, and Don’t Breathe, and A Quiet Place tackles more sensory scares.
