Skip it. 'The Silence' has a premise with potential, but the abysmal scores across the board (30% RT, 5.4 IMDb, 25 Metacritic) suggest it squanders that concept with poor execution and an infamous cult subplot that feels more exploitative than thrilling. You've got better ways to spend your evening.

Plot
