The video is a review of the movie "Byrd Box," sponsored by ExpressVPN. The reviewer, who is a fan of the movie, discusses the film's plot, characters, and themes in detail. The movie's premise revolves around mysterious creatures that appear all over the world, causing people to commit suicide if they look at them. The main characters, Mallory and her children, are forced to flee to a remote community in the forest, which used to be a school for the blind.
The reviewer explains that the film is unwinnable for the protagonists, as there is no way to defeat the creatures or the crazy people who are determined to remove the blindfolds of anyone they come across. The crazy people are aware that making people see the creatures will kill them, and they are armed, organized, and actively searching for anyone who hasn't seen the creatures yet.
The reviewer also discusses the location of the film, which is a remote area with limited resources. The film's location determines what resources are available and what threats are present. The reviewer proposes that the location of the film, Pike's Quarry, is northeast of San Francisco, and the Janet Tucker School for the Blind is located at the end of the Smith River.
The reviewer further breaks down the creatures and their characteristics, stating that they can manipulate the world around them but don't occupy any physical space. They are more like ghosts or poltergeists, and they don't seem interested in touching people. However, they can disorient people by making them hear things that aren't there.
The reviewer concludes by stating that the film's solution, the school for the blind, is not feasible due to the presence of the crazy people. The crazy people are aware of the school's location and have the resources and time to breach the building. The reviewer suggests that the best solution is to remain blind, as the creatures should just leave you alone if you can't see them. However, the crazy people are determined to make people see the creatures, so this solution is risky.
The reviewer ends the video by encouraging viewers to share their thoughts on how to beat the film's scenario and thanks the viewers for watching.
