My issues with this movie

She can feel the vibrations of her fire alarm and the vibration of her cell phone, but she could not feel the vibrations of her friend banging on her window?

It took her 10 minutes to first get a knife, then she ditches the knife later for no reason. She leaves the house during her first attempted escape but forgets to take a knife with her.

When her neighbor is dying and choking the killer out, rather than going outside to help kill him with ease, she goes and hides in a room then starts to go through some incredibly complicated planning and thought process which eventually leads her to realize she needs to kill him.

She tends to hide in rooms a lot and loses sight of the guy which I would think is her number one priority since she cannot hear.

The killer had a hammer go through his forearm, yet he can move that arm and hand perfectly throughout the rest of the movie.

The amount of easy opportunities she had to kill him was frustrating.

There was no twist in the movie which I was hoping for. The movie had a lot of potential but had terrible writing and planning.

I suspect because the main actress was also one of two main writers, she did not get much "feedback" or "review" on her work.

I agree NuclearPharmacist. She does many stupid things, and it is annoying. But the movie is well done in general, and it did keep me on edge, despite this.

wrong, she didn't feel vibration of fire alarm, there was light, or she could have noticed her friend's panic. and she didn't feel vibration of cell phone, there is a light. do you know how hard it's to kill someone or even yourself with a knife? obviously you didn't try it.

Something else had me shaking my head in puzzlement, the killer cuts the power to her house so it's 'dark' inside yet outside is lit up brighter than day. Some elaboration is required... I'm 30 minutes into my second attempt to watch this movie but it's just too painful to watch.

Brighter than day? Really? Does moonlight really require elaboration?

Just because I stumble down the road like a drunk, that doesn't mean it's the wrong one.

Thank you all. From what you describe, this is the kind of movie that would make me break my television! I hate movies with utterly stupid people.

She should have set smoke alarms off at the start,they are battery operated so power cut wouldnt affect them. Noise /light would have scared perp off im sure.
