not a new story but i watched this following the shawn ashmore revenge thriller so something does stand out in contrast—both of them are a very much done thriller subgenre but the silencing managed to make itself unique in a way that the other movie remained unoriginal. the killer's identity isn't immediately noticeable, though it's also not what makes the movie stand apart; the storyline for the new sheriff is the most interesting part of this movie, and the pacing, visuals and acting all do a good job of coalescing around that. again, it's a story that's already been told, so it's not exactly ground breaking. but it's a solid movie that i can actually recommend for reasons beyond "do you have a weird soft spot for former animorphs star shawn ashmore like i do? then watch this!" like i did for darkness falls.
