Bird Box

Sandra Bullock and Sarah Paulson-starring thriller Bird Box is frightening up thrills and scares on Friday.

The Netflix film, which first made its theatrical debut at the AFI Fest in November, is set in a world where a "mysterious force decimates the world's population," leaving only one thing that is certain: if you see it, you take your life. "Facing the unknown, Malorie finds love, hope and a new beginning only for it to unravel. Now she must flee with her two children down a treacherous river to the one place left that may offer sanctuary. But to survive, they'll have to undertake the perilous two-day journey blindfolded."

Along with Bullock and Paulson, Bird Box also stars Trevante Rhodes and John Malkovich and is helmed by Academy Award winner Susanne Bier.
