“Don’t Breathe” is a 2016 horror/thriller film directed by Fede Alvarez and written by Alvarez and Rodo Sayagues. The film stars Jane Levy, Dylan Minnette, Daniel Zovatto, and Stephen Lang.

The story follows a group of young thieves, Rocky (Levy), Alex (Minnette), and Money (Zovatto), who decide to rob the house of a blind man (Lang) who they believe has a large sum of money hidden inside. However, they soon realize that the blind man is not as helpless as he seems, and the situation quickly spirals out of control into a deadly game of cat and mouse.

The film received positive reviews from critics and audiences, who praised its tense atmosphere, suspenseful plot, and strong performances, particularly from Stephen Lang as the blind man. It was a commercial success, grossing over $157 million worldwide against a budget of $10 million, and a sequel titled “Don’t Breathe 2” was released in 2021.
