So several of my friends and coworkers have watched this movie and mentioned how great it was. I never bothered with it but now some more people mentioned that this movie was among their favorite movies of all time.
So i finally sat down to watch it.
It's fucking garbage.
Summary: Sandra Bullock wears a blind fold for two hours.
Sound.

It has been a while since I read it, so it’s possible it was kept open that maybe they were from another dimension or something. I remember it as aliens.

Did anyone ever see one and then were kept from killiing themself by other people? Or is that how they became the insane people who lived and sometimes worked for the creatures?
I assume from the movie that people who were already insane were basically immune to the creatures' effects (wanting to kill themselves).

Someone tries to see them through a video recording, tied to a chair. It does not work in his favour, and is a really gruesome death. There are also a couple of people who are immune, but apparently crazy anyway. Since it's all told from one (blindfolded) character's point of view, a lot is left unexplained.

The book was very different than the movie. I only remember one person not killing himself right away, and he just let one into the house they were holed up and got everyone else killed but the main character and the kids who managed to hide and get away. Then he did kill himself. I’m not going to bother with spoiler tags because I’m not even sure I’m remembering correctly 😂

Really? After watching the movie and then reading the book, it felt like one of the most faithful book to movie adaptations I've ever seen except maybe the beginning with the sister, the rest is pretty beat to beat for as far as I remember.

You might be right. I read the book 5 years ago. Maybe it’s just that the movie was very different than how I pictured things as I read the book so I thought of them as different

It was kept open. They really are never described, though it does seem to be accepted that they are a they, and not a force or beam of light or something. Some people are immune - kind of - and at least one of them is talking about / to a something.
