Fede Alvarez brought us the Evil Dead (2013) Remake has returned with his recent horror movie titled Don"t Breathe (2016). Instead of intense gore as the focus of this film, we will see intense suspense in this film. This movie poster looks simple, but I am already hooked. Dylan Minnette, Jane Levy, Stephen Lang, Daniel Zovatto, Sergej Onopko, Jane May Graves, and Jon Donahue star in Don"t Breathe.

Fede Alvarez explained the following to Entertainment Weekly:

I come from Montevideo in Uruguay, a third-world country where we always grew up with a sense of no future. It"s not something unique to where I come from. It happens in many, many different places. The characters in this movie, the reason I choose to tell the story of thieves and people who break into houses is because they want to break away from that reality. Their motivation is something I connect with, which doesn"t mean their morals are what I connect with. But I understand where they come from.
