Plot Summary

Sightless aliens with sharp hearing and impenetrable armored skin have taken over the planet and killed most of the human population. The Abbott family – father Lee, mother Evelyn, deaf daughter Regan, and sons Marcus and Beau – live on their isolated farm in the middle of a forest in upstate New York, and have survived by taking precautions such as laying sand paths to avoid stepping on crunching leaves and using American Sign Language when communicating. When the family goes into the nearby town for supplies, Beau finds a toy Space Shuttle, but Lee makes him leave it behind due to the noise it would make if powered on.

As they are getting ready to leave, Regan returns it without its batteries, but Beau takes them without anyone noticing. While walking back home, Beau activates it, which starts making noise. Almost immediately, Beau is killed by a nearby alien before Lee can reach him. Regan suffers terrible guilt thereafter, which she hides from her parents, although Marcus is aware of it. Over a year after Beau’s death, Evelyn is pregnant with a fourth child. Lee is trying to build a working hearing aid for Regan, but can’t master the electronics. The attempt causing a high pitched noise but not allowing her to hear.

Marcus reluctantly goes fishing with Lee while Regan, upset that she cannot go, visits Beau’s grave. While the rest of the family is gone, Evelyn goes into labor. While heading to the basement, she accidentally steps on an upright nail and drops a photo frame, alerting a nearby alien which enters the house. Struggling to stay silent amidst the pain, Evelyn flips a switch in the basement, turning the surrounding lights around the house red. The alien enters the basement soon after, but Evelyn distracts it with the loud clicks of an egg timer and escapes upstairs.
