It's not only one of the most terrifying movies I've ever seen, but... it is! I don't do the jumpscares well. And we might have watched some of it with the sound off... We might of muted a few moments of it. Ah, you know...
John Krasinski 07:13

You know, the funny thing is I actually learned that lesson from Greg Daniels on the office. It was like three weeks into shooting and I was so nervous for the scene. And he said, you okay? And I said yes... this is my favorite joke in the script and I want to make sure I deliver it really funny...
And he (Greg Daniels) said; whoa, you don't deliver anything funny. You just deliver it and let people decide whether it's funny or not. I said okay. And he said; you just do the character and if they fall in love with you, they'll go on any ride.
And I literally thought of him when they said direct a horror movie I was like I don't know how to do a horror movie. So instead I just did a family drama and Trojan horsed it as a horror movie because I thought you'll be more scared If you fall in love with these characters

You'll notice that I created a piece of content about category busting while giving context in a story, the story of John Krasinski & his movie The Quiet Place. The idea to compare these two ideas came along (like most ideas do) by accident. I was watching an interview with him"A Quiet Place" Movie interview which reminded me of the category busting concept. In the moment I remember thinking "this interview would serve as an interesting way to present the concept of category busting". That idea lead to the article.
