Movie goers are flocking in droves to the new film appropriately titled “Too Dark and Incredibly Quiet.”

“Too Dark and Incredibly Quiet” could be a fascinating tale of love and romance: betrayal and death. It could also be a feel-good film about hard times and redemption. Or it could be the story of high adventure in outer space, or in the desert, or at sea. It may even be a laugh out loud screwball comedy.
The truth is, no one really knows what it is about because it is too dark to see what’s going on and too quiet to understand what anyone is saying.
“I think I liked it,” said Daniel Shayes, who saw it last weekend on the big screen. “It seemed cool the way it was shot and all, but I couldn’t really tell because I couldn’t see it at all – I mean nothing. I made out a few shapes here and there, but that was it.”
The film stars mumbling British actor Eddie Redmayne, although it is impossible to tell if that’s him because every scene was shot in extreme darkness. The credits also say that the talented and incredibly soft-spoken Kirsten Stewart was in it too, although her dialogue could only be heard by guide dogs.
The film has garnered much critical acclaim for its extreme imperceptible darkness and incredibly inaudible dialogue.
“The beauty of this film is that it can be interpreted in so many different ways,” said film critic Janet Maslin, who is still alive. “Because you can’t make out a single word anyone says or make sense of what’s happening at any given moment, it is really up to you, the viewer, to determine what the film is about. It’s revolutionary film making, if you ask me.”
Ben Stiller, the director of the dark and quiet TV show Severance, also raved about “Too Dark and Incredibly Quiet.”
“I’m so inspired by this film,” said Stiller. “It makes me want to take Severance to the next level next season and make it even harder for viewers to see and hear. Like, I want them to have to turn the volume up to 70 and ruin their eyesight trying to watch it. By the way, did you know we use old cars in the show? You probably don’t, because you can’t see them – but trust me, there are Datsuns and Pintos and AMC Gremlins all throughout the show. Go Knicks!”
The film has done surprisingly well at the box office, becoming the highest grossing unintelligible film of all time, surpassing “Tenet”
The filmmakers are already working on the sequel: “2 Dark, 2 Quiet, and 2 Confusing,” slated for a 2026 release.
