I find the way in which the suspense of the film is raised very interesting: through sound. That the main family is linked to silence by a deaf girl, seems even more interesting to me. The confection of the Monsters also reminds me of bats, which hunt their prey with sound waves in their mouths. I haven't seen Birdbox, but I did see promotional footage of it where Sandra Bullock was wearing a blindfold on her. I suppose that there it was about not seeing. I like survival stories with these elements.
Thanks for the recommendation 👍
