One night in a quiet American town, an entire class of students wakes in their homes and bolts outside. By morning, only one of them shows up to school. As the town scrambles to uncover what happened, fear and fury ripple through the community. This chilling premise is the foundation for what may be one of 2025’s standout films—judging by the overwhelming acclaim from audiences and critics alike. Director Zach Cregger commands every cinematic element with precision: shifting perspectives, heightening tension through masterful use of camera and sound, and drawing razor-sharp performances from his ensemble cast.
