A Quiet Place Part II (2020)
Shhh… A Quiet Place Part II, the sequel to 2018’s Oscar-nominated post-apocalyptic horror, pits the Abbott family against the terrors of the outside world as they’re forced to venture into the unknown, where the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats lurking beyond the sand path.
Part II was named Best Horror at the 2022 critics’ Choice Super Awards, where Cillian Murphy (Peaky Blinders) and Millicent Simmonds were nominated as Best Actor and Actress in the category. Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou, BAFTA nominee Emily Blunt and Emmy nominated writer-director John Krasinski co-star.
Part II was the 15th biggest box office hit of 2021 globally and has a 91% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus says, “A nerve-wracking continuation of its predecessor, A Quiet Place Part II expands the terrifying world of the franchise without losing track of its heart.”
A Quiet Place (2018) is also streaming on Showmax.
