This ‘Quiet Place’ prequel is a little too mum on backstory

Samira (Lupita Nyong’o) and her cat Frodo try to avoid alien attack in <em>A Quiet Place: Day One.</em>

In the Quiet Place films, blind aliens attack, hunting anyone who makes a sound. But the details of the premise are fuzzy, and this prequel neglects to give a clearer picture of the global invasion.
