Pouyanrz I would never recommend watching this. Just a disaster without no meanings.
Mario Dati (ThePiousPatriot) Terrible movie. Absolutely nothing happens, and absolutely nothing comes at night, in the morning, for dinner. Nothing..... Just nothing.
failsafegamers One of the biggest things I see with other reviews of this movies is that people seem upset that there is no payoff to the title of the film. The title It Comes At Night makes it seem almost as if there is some grand greater monster or enemy that comes in the night. In reality the title is about the creeping fear of paranoia that comes in the night and not some scary monsters or zombies or anything like that. This movie is very slow moving at times, it is an incredible slow burn about a family that is stuck in some kind of disease driven apocalypse. It is never expressed how it started, how it is transferred, or what it exactly does. This will either be something you like or hate, personally I love the feeling of putting us right in the story of the end of the world, in a world that already far beyond hope of saving.It Comes At Night isn't a movie about saving the world or being brought back from the brink of death, in fact it cements itself hard in the other direction. We never know anything about this virus or if there is a cute, we spend the movie with a family that is just trying to survive instead. Where other films in the genre might focus on hope and finding a cute It Comes At Night stands out as not trying to tell that story. Rather it focuses on the intense paranoia of a single family just doing their best. I thought the performances were great, as it is a very slow character driven movie, the acting really is what holds everything together. You're able to relate and really understand this feeling of being anxious and paranoid, especially with the son. I appreciate that this movie doesn't sit down and explain every little thing to you, it shows you character through actions instead of just telling you. Overall I would absolutely recommend this if you are looking for something with a tense, slow build. If you want a zombie or action flick with a monster, this is most likely not the choice for you.
yonthlim I can relate to how people disappointed by this movie, as we watch certain genre of movie we tend to build up an expectation toward its genre.When we watch horror movies we expected to be scared and had a good time. When people watch It Comes at Night. People will expect malicious ghost/monster-like manifestation of the word "It". But the thing is, The word "It" in the title and in the movie itself is not about a ghost, monster, or psychotic killer. It's the genre itself.I would like to categorize this movie as a fun suspense, and the suspense did comes along the movie especially at night. It portrays trust-issue in the condition where trust outside of your own family is scarce. The monster here is not the ink-blood-vomiting zombie, but it's how we deal with our own issues. If we can't control it, we could lose something important to us.People who disappointed by this movie have overlooked the real monster in this movie. It's in the protagonist and their allies, it's a nature of us as human being trying to survive, yet ironically lead us to extinction.
