I had a childhood friend that couldn't swim. He was perfectly comfortable frolicking in shallow bodies of water, such as creeks and above ground pools, he could hold his breathe and submerge, just fine, but was absolutely incapable of swimming. We went fishing on one of the lakes, in a jon boat, and he fell in. When he hit the water he flailed his arms like a madman. When we got him back on the boat he said that not being able to touch bottom is what scared him and caused him to panic and reach for anything he could find.

It's also hard to apply force while underwater so "just cut the rope" isn't as simple as 1-2-3 like he implies. That's why you can't just "break the window" if your car falls into water. You would need to use a sawing motion to cut through the rope and even then, it's gonna take time.

The basement floor wasn't even close to deep enough to worry about that though. In the first movie that one slunk into the water like it knew exactly what it was doing.

The reason why the survivors at the doc have blood shot eyes is because they are infected by a Death Angel. I saw an early screening of A Quiet Place 2 a few months before it released theatrically and there was a scene that was cut in the final product. The scene showed one of the survivors pull up their sleeves to attack Emet and the camera focuses on a slash wound on the survivors arm. Emet notices it too and gulps. Apparently, the Death Angels have some sort of venom or toxin in their claws that when it enters the blood stream, it turns the person crazed. I can see why the editors left that scene out of the film because zombies in the quiet place universe doesn’t really sound good. (Pls don’t fire me Paramount)

The level of hearing of the DA's swings wildly. If it can hear a bell over distance, or inside walls or rock then if its in the same room with you, there is ZERO chance it doesn't "see" you clear as day using your heartbeat and pulse.

[@Yomotomen]

Ambient sound is pretty high but yeah, with how quiet these movies get i can see that. An excuse may be thet they are tuned towards higher pitched sounds, thus if you go too high they freak out, and low noises such as a muffled heartbeat, and the sound of the earth may be too low for them to perveive.

[@sebastiankuolcrimson1622]

My guess is that they can't swim because of their lack of bouyancy,plus the Armor itself. Also,the Aros/Death Angel that showed to swim in Part 1 was using the floor and Evelyn was able to slowly and quietly walk to her baby,so the Death Angel used the floor to NAVY Seal it's way in suspense. So the Other Death Angels need surface or something to grip on and since they had nothing to grip on in the ocean,it would explain why they weren't able to swim.

[@evanf.4801]

My two theories (based in purely movie science): 1. They are bioweapons created by some intelligent species, and that the meteors that are seen transporting them are just ancient ships, so old that they have been encrusted with asteroids. 2. They evolved in caves, you’re pretty much outlining the rest of that theory on your own.

[@LeahtheReds]

Bioweapons sent to soften up a planet before a more intelligent species shows up to take over makes the most movie sense to me

Bio weapon is what I thought it reminds me very much of the Xenomorph from alien. In the sense of it being a near perfect killing machine. Also With how slow the “meteor” was it is almost like a ship coming into the atmosphere and being masquerading as a meteor, dropping off the first wave to break down any resistance. It’s almost a shock and awe style of attack.

Book confirms caves, also they were much smaller in the book and relied on overwhelming numbers as opposed to being living tanks.

But one thing with the first one, why not give the Bioweapons the ability to see? Of course, there could be many reasons why but it's just something I want to point out.

[@CannedLemurs]

Late reply, but there's no evidence to the contrary as far as I recall. Say the military did, there's a continental outbreak of them and the amount of military bases with the supplies to be able to output that sort of reaction would likely be somewhat low. By low, I'm referring to the amount of installations with that capability, vs total military installations. Another thing to look at, is there would likely be significant military casualties, leading to more localized military presence. Why would the military move to reinforce some rural town, over a military base with defensive capabilities, able to house and defend important principals? It may be far fetched, but there are some reasons why a military presence isn't in either movie, however late after the initial landings.

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

My theory is this. They have some understanding of water and know how to traverse shallow water in the stealthy matter we see. However, if they don't know that they are jumping into water, the sudden sound all around them disorients them. We see that a river or waterfall is enough to allow a person to yell totally unheard. Now imagine that noise jamming effect all around them. They then flail around with no sound to guide them except the further splashing made by their movements. Then they end up drowning because they have no way to maintain their orientation with the surface.

[@anthonyeaves4145]

I like your explanation of their biology, the cave thing does make sense. However it doesn’t explain their extreme aggression. I am very glad someone brought up the fact that they don’t appear to eat people and while it is seen that they attacked one raccoon it wasn’t shown if they ate it or not so we still don’t know if they are eating anything. Personally, I think the death angels are bio-weapons. All they seem to do is kill and they continue to relentlessly persue prey even when they are injured. The fact that they continue to attack after sustaining series damage is not normal predator behavior

[@gungasc]

The sun and earth both produce a noise. Having evolved on this planet, we have grown immune to it. The death angles would be hearing a white noise at the same level as a rock concert. Only answer to this is the DA somehow have more complex hearing and can cut off specific noise on all spectrums, kinda like how you can mute all audio devices on a video game so you can only hear “music” or “character voices”

[@josephwatkins1190]

That may explain why their hearing is inconsistent as they're dealing with a constant background noise that they're having to mute so they can only hear certain frequencies

[@Cavemanner]

Its crazy realizing how loud the earth is just all the time.

We are not „immune“ to it… the frequency is just outside of our hearing spectrum. We didnt evolve to not hear that. We can’t hear such deep sounds because it’s just not necessary or practical.

[@karganor]

why has no one thought of using their carapace as armor, their insides are super soft so breaking it down into like plates of body armor to gain an advantage, if not dissect the creature maybe they can make a mold from their vocal cords, or find a pheromones sack to trick these thing into not attacking you. also I want to believe there's a scenario in which some death angels got infected with toxoplasmosis and ended up being murdered by a pack of cats, A quiet place 3 this time it's purrsonnel

I always saw the Death Angels success in almost wiping out all sound producing life on Earth as just how fast these things can go, I mean for creatures that big they sure can move quite quickly, pretty much Cheetah speed or possibly faster; I see it as not so much the military couldn't kill them but more so they didn't have the time too kill them, by the time they realized what's happening those aliens were already at their doorstep.

[@jimmyelkordy3752]

That idea gets ridiculous when you think about the size of the north and south American continent and realize they either had to have dropped 2000 death angels or they dropped like 20 that just ran from Canada to Argentinian in a day

[@tommyfox854]

@@jimmyelkordy3752 You do have a point jimmy, you do have a good point. I think it's more on the line of the 2,000 death angels hypothesis considering how many death angels we see in a roughly small town/area in the two films; heck it might even be closer too 5,000 per meteor considering the sheer size of the fireball we see in the second movie (Yes I'm aware it could've been closer too the town than we think; but considering that we never hear that thing hit the ground nor the huge gust of wind that should've been made when it did. . either that thing had more holes in it than a sewer grate or it was just REDICULASLY far away. In either case, that meteor was huge, and considering the size of the death angels there's no doubt that each one had thousands, if not tens of thousands, of those things inside each one.), so those things knocking humanity back on its ass is not lookin so unlikely in my opinion. Though the idea that there's just 20 of those things for either both American continents or 20 per continent is just flat out stupid, the fastest human eye and reaction time wouldn't even register those things moving several MILLION miles per hour. . I get that they're alien so our understanding of nature and so on won't be all that effective/useful. . . but there has to be some kind of limit on how fast a land dwelling creature can go in the limited fixed laws of the universe before we're looking at some kind of extra-universal or quantum entity. The fact that we can actually track these things with our eyes and reaction time means that there's no way less than a small neighborhood's worth of hyper aggressive aliens can take out that many people so fast. Hell we literally see one of those alien slowly walking through town, listening for any noise making thing to potentially kill, that wouldn't be happening if those buggers can movie several times the speed of sound (ironically enough).

[@goomba25]

I think the not enough time issue could work if you change it to "can't kill them fast enough." Say their armor is resistant up to 0.50 cal, and even that takes a few seconds to stop them. The military certainly has enough of those weapons and more, but now there's logistics. Regular rifles are useless. How many people do you have trained who are skilled at using a heavy MG, or a rocket launcher, or a tank? How are you going to supply them with "bullets, bandages and beans" when things are flying off the shelves like early covid? Finally, where do you send them when everyone far away from the aliens is going to want to keep their troops at home? Even if a tank can take out one with a single shot, the aliens can just group rush it, crash into it and maybe disrupt electronics, and rip off everything on the outside like sights and maybe the engine. And without logistics or orders, a tank has maybe 40 shots to use on what it can directly see, and it can only run over things while there's gas in the tank. Aliens can't get in, but the tank is mission killed.

Theory: The death angels did not naturally evolve to their current form. They were genetically engineered by a sentient species and sent out into the galaxy. They were meant to devastate a planet by wiping out the native species, thus making it easier to claim when their creators arrived. Since such large amounts of surface water is rare, the creators didn't take it into account, leaving them with the inability to swim.

It could be that their sensory organs are sensative to high salt content, so something like sea water could cause disorienting confusion that prevents the creature from swimming in salty water, but since fresh water does not generally contain excess irritants, this does not iritate the creature's sensory organs. So they could move through fresh water, but can't move through salt water. It could also be the depth of the water that could contribute to it as well.

One of the big problems I had from the very outset of the first movie was the plot hinged upon these things having super duper invulnerable armor. So strong was this armor that the military couldn't defeat them. The HESH round was specifically designed for impenetrable armor. It would work wonders at pulping all of that squishy inside bits of those things. I suspect shortly following the proven efficacy of those tank shells against these things, small arms versions would be churned out.

[@redrix1787]

[@johnsmithfakename8422]

This is something that always bothered me about the "death angels." Bullets work by concentrating energy. Bullets are a mass going at supersonic velocities, and when a small projectile is going fast it can act weird. My train of thought comes from how difficult it is to make body armor that can stop rifle rounds. In my opinion the death angels probably have innate 3 or 3A body armor. This would mean that a .50 BMG would be very effective against them, a .308 would really hurt (and possibly cause death through internal hemorrhaging or trauma), shotgun slugs would really hurt (and possibly cause death through internal hemorrhaging or trauma). Smaller and lighter rounds unless going over 3300 FPS might at worst bounce off their carapace, and at best punch through. There is a limiting actor that seems to be omitted, and that is weight. A plate of metal armor that can stop a bullet, and cover the chest, is surprisingly heavy (I think 10 pounds for one plate). A creature of that size with metal based armor that can stop a rifle round, in theory should weight around a ton.

The “armor” thing just feels like a poorly thought out version of the Xenomorphs from “Alien” being virtually immune to civilian small arms. The xenomorphs weren’t unstoppable. Fire still hurts, and a strong enough weapon like a heavy lifting mech or military rail gun could penetrate their hide.

[@TheEddagosp]

Regarding the dark colored and extremely tough chitinous exoskeletons, there's a few logical explanations based around a couple of ideas that people tend to overlook. The scarier possibility is that, yes, the creatures are fast, powerful and extremely deadly, but that doesn't mean that they're the *apex* predators in their native planet. There could very well be some other equally terrifying creature that hunts these ones and these features are evolutionary responses to their predators. The more likely scenario is that in the event that they are native to a "porous" planet full of cavernous systems, there's a chance that their prey *can* see even if the Death Angels cannot. Being dark and rock-like would mean that they're more likely to be ambush predators. Tarantulas are like this as their eyesight is rather poor; they hunt by detecting subtle vibrations caused by insects wandering around their burrows.

[@MegaPlayerXxX]

I honestly think that while they might be dificult to kill, I doubt armies would have too great problem with them. Sure, normal handheld weapons might not be enough to penetrate the shell, but we have much greater weapons than that. Tanks, transporters with autocannons, jetfighters and helicopters, all equpiied with guns that can shred panzer. Nowadays we also have drones and autonomous weapon systems. We could lanch a swarm of drones that could just seek Death Angels and shoot them from above. Also, given how strong their hearing is, our world would be an absolute hell for them. Eveything makes sound, our civilization is built around noisy machines, loud music and more. Since they do not eat humans, I think they actually figured we are too noisy and want to get rid of us becuase our presence hurts them. Kinda like how dogs are scared during thunderstorm, so would they hate loud sounds of our world. Imagine hearing everything 1000 times stronger, as if you constantly had concert speakers right by your ears. I think that is why they still hunt humans and anything that makes sound. Also why they stay away from waterfalls. These are pretty loud. But also given that, defending agaisnt them should be rather easy. Scream on top of your lungs, make a sonic blast, turn all speakers to full. It would create so much noise it would be like flashbang to them. Instead of getting closer to destroy the source, I think they would try and get away from it as far as possible.

Exactly. I found a comment on another video where somebody argued how it was laughably unrealistic how fast he acted and, according to him, in real life people would stand around and check things out before they react. Most movies would probably depict the character stumbling backwards a few paces, falling backwards on their ass and then looking dumbfounded for a few seconds before finally slowly starting to panic, clumsily get up and run away. That's movie theatrics, not real life. In real life a car gets knocked over and people flung around right in front of your eyes out of nowhere, you turn and run for at least a few dozen meters before maybe turning around and assessing the situation to see whether the danger has subsided or you need to keep running. In real life your survival instincts and adrenaline system wouldn't let you just stand there calmly to rationally deduce "Oh! This situation is dangerous, I better run". The way the movie did it was excellent and way more realistic than most other movies would have done it.

[@magmaslasher7604]

10:20 the lighter was actually meant to show him how much air was remaining, not just to be able to see.

[@Regonix]

I can easily explain some part of their biology and their "swimming". They evolved on binary star system (meaning one planet had two stars). The planet must have been exactly right between both starts and would have been tidally locked. Also, the planet should have been fairly close to both stars, so that the planet surface would be contently scorched by bring light. Also, the planet must have been between 50% and 200% bigger than earth. Death Anglers, as well as all other forms of life on this planet, would have evolved on this planet deep underground. The surface would be way too bright and way too hot to life on, but underground would be quite decent. Though millions of years of evolution Death Angels adapted to higher gravity (hard shell and soft insides), which explain why they move so easily and fluidly on earth. Also, due to heat, higher gravity and other factors, all water on their homeworld would exist mostly as small pools and vapor. That is why they can move through shallow water easily, but they never experienced deep waters. In addition, while they work on pure instincts, they are show to have some higher though, which implies that they should posses some individuality. Furthermore, existing on the planet as I described would demand from them to specialize in their social interactions. While in both movies all of them are shown to "hunt" alone, this might be due the type of Death Anglers who ended up on earth. Plus, a planet between two starts, constantly being pushed and pulled internally, would make underground caves and tunnels constantly shift, which would force Death Angels to constantly migrate, constantly "hunt" and never rest. It would explain their level of aggression. Also, a planet like that would eventually collapse, and that is how meteors with Death Angles must have reached earth.

[@fabio19h]

The binary Starsystem would lead the stars to rotate an a common axle. As the planet is „tidelocked“ it would stay in its place and so it would have a day and night cycle. It would be a very long day and a very long night and the night would only appear on a very small portion of the planet but would still exist.

I don't think this is a spoiler since I'm only referencing the 1st two movies, but reader beware: so 1st movie it swam, 2nd movie it sank. Only that in the first movie, it didn't really swim, it was hippopotamus-ing. Fun fact: hippos can't swim, they walk and/or hop along the river bed. They're also super buoyant, which helps. The aliens on the other hand are dense af, a lore point that works into their armor. The angels don't get water, they don't understand why they can't walk on it, or why they shouldn't be in it. In the first movie it submerged itself long enough until its alien brain determined that it needed air. In the 2nd, they forgot to bring waterwings before jumping into the deep end, hence drowned. And they showed exactly that in a scene which people would question why even have that (like why would it even do that then), before realizing that they're simply answering one of the major gripes about the aliens. And I liked that they bothered to stitch up the lore. That being said, they're still keeping mum on the most major of gripes about the franchise: what is with these things selective hyper-hearing?! I mean like the whole theme of the conflict revolves around it. The movies are not called A Dry Place, it's A QUIET Place. Resolve the thing that drives the entire plot to begin with.
