A man emerges and attacks the little boat, insisting that the occupants remove their blindfolds and see the creatures.

We first encounter one of these people early in the movie chronologically but late in the movie’s own timeline when Malorie, Girl, and Boy are canoeing down the river. Some select individuals are not driven to suicide after seeing them, Instead these select few become obsessed and captivated with the creatures, going so far as to urge the rest of the population to take off their blindfolds so they can witness the creatures’ beauty. Of course, as Bird Box later reveals not everyone is fatally “allergic” to the creatures. When Malorie’s sister Jessica sees the creatures in the beginning of the film, her eyes glass over, she begins to tremble and cry and she mutters “what the fuck is that?” It’s possible that Jessica is witnessing she and Malorie’s dead father but she does not address him directly. Occasionally people who see them react with simple panic, fear, followed by the telltale uncontrollable urge to commit suicide. While personalized delusions are certainly a common feature following exposure to the creatures, it’s not the only one. During the initial North American panic, Douglas’s wife walks to her death in a burning car, and mentions seeing her mother who has been dead for ten years. Near the end of the film, Malorie (Sandra Bullock) is assaulted by the disembodied voices of the dead, including Tom (Tevante Rhodes) and Douglas (John Malkovich). The slightly longer answer is magic combined with visual and auditory hallucinations oftentimes specific to the viewer of the creatures.īeing haunted and seduced by the dead is a frequent symptom for those who see the creatures.
The short answer is “magic,” essentially. How do these creatures cause human beings to commit suicide though? Ionno.
In Bird Box, the inspirer of suicide isn’t nature but rather these mystical, invisible assailants. In The Happening, Mother Nature herself decided she had quite enough of humanity’s shit and begins releasing toxins into the air that cause people to kill themselves. For starters, we do know that it’s “creatures” and not “creature.” Characters routinely reference the entity threatening humanity as “them.” Many critics and watchers of Bird Box have pointed out the film’s similarity to M. First, let’s examine what Bird Box, itself, tells us about the creatures.
