Overview[]
During a baseball game, the Abbott family – wife Evelyn, husband Lee, deaf daughter Regan, and sons Marcus and Beau – and other spectators witness a strange cloud-like object hurtle towards the Earth. Hostile extraterrestrial creatures known as "Death Angels" attack and begin slaughtering people. These blind creatures possess armored skin, have extraordinary speed and strength, and track victims with hypersensitive hearing, attacking anything that makes a noise.
Over a year later, the Death Angels have killed much of the Earth's population, including Beau and Lee. Regan discovered that high-frequency audio feedback makes the Death Angels vulnerable, and she devises a makeshift method of transmitting the noise from her cochlear implant through a portable microphone.
With their home destroyed, the family searches for other survivors. Entering a fenced-off area, Evelyn accidentally sets off a sound alarm, alerting the Death Angels. As they flee, Marcus steps into a bear trap, attracting a Death Angel with his screams. Regan and Evelyn kill it, free Marcus, then run into an abandoned steel foundry. An old friend, Emmett, appears and takes them to his soundproof underground hideout. Emmett, who recently lost his family, refuses to help further and says they cannot stay.
Marcus hears the song "Beyond the Sea" playing on the radio, which Emmett says has aired continuously for four months. Regan determines it is a hint that survivors are on a nearby island. She theorizes that if she can reach the radio tower, the hearing aid's high-frequency noise can be broadcast so other survivors can weaponize the signal. She secretly ventures out alone to find the island. Emmett finds Regan and saves her from a Death Angel. Regan persuades Emmett to help complete her mission.
Evelyn leaves Marcus and her newborn baby at the foundry to fetch medical supplies in town. Marcus discovers the corpse of Emmett's wife. Startled, he alerts a Death Angel and accidentally locks himself and the baby inside the air-tight compartment.
Emmett and Regan arrive at a marina to board a boat to the island. They are attacked by feral humans, and Emmett deliberately creates noise and attracts Death Angels that slaughter the attackers. When one Death Angel drowns, he realizes that the Death Angels cannot swim. The two row to the island where a small colony of survivors are living normally. The colony leader reveals that when the government discovered the Death Angels were unable to swim, the U.S. National Guard attempted to move as many people as possible to the islands, though only two boats made it.
When Evelyn returns to the foundry, she frees the children before they suffocate. The three hide inside the bunker as the Death Angel prowls the foundry. At the island, a Death Angel aboard a boat drifts to the island and attacks the colonists. It kills the colony leader while Emmett and Regan run into the radio station. Regan transmits the high frequency through the room's speakers, incapacitating the Death Angel, and impales its exposed head with a rod, killing it.
At the foundry, the Death Angel discovers the family. Marcus picks up Regan's transmission and plays the high-pitched frequency through his portable radio before shooting the Death Angel. Regan leaves the hearing aid connected to the radio station's microphone, allowing the broadcast signal to be weaponized by others.
