Brian Duffield is one of the most interesting filmmakers working today. After first expressing his passion for genre cinema with the scripts for ‘Jane Got a Gun’, ‘The Babysitter’ and ‘Underwater – It’s Awakened’, he was also able to direct the film ‘Zerplatzt’, which he directed. director – and told a unique love story in which people also burst into pieces.
His latest joke, “No One Will Save You,” has been available as a Disney+ subscription since September 22. It all revolves around artist Brynn Adams (played by Kaitlyn Dever), who is alienated from her surroundings and discovers in disbelief that an alien has apparently invaded the building she lives in. Worse still, the uninvited guest is also targeting Brynn!
Stephen King and Guillermo Del Toro are also excited!
In the official FILMSTARTS review, “No One Will Save You” received an excellent 4.5 out of 5 stars. This means that Brian Duffield’s new film just missed out on masterpiece status. In his conclusion, our author Sidney Schering writes: “A career-best performance amid a highly exciting, entertaining and emotional mix of science fiction, horror and thriller traditions, loneliness hasn’t been as stressful as in ‘No One Will Save You’.”
But we’re not the only ones who are quite impressed by the film, two prominent names have now expressed their enthusiasm for ‘No One Will Save You’ via X (formerly Twitter): Stephen King (“Stuffed Animals’ Graveyard”) and “Pan’s Labyrinth” director Guillermo del Toro:
“’No One Will Save You’: Brilliant, daring, exciting, scary. You have to go back over 60 years to a Twilight Zone episode called “The Invaders” to find anything remotely comparable. Absolutely unique.“, says Stephen King.
“’No One Will Save You’ is fun, fun, FUN. It is beautiful and full of beautiful moments, classically and firmly staged. He avoids the pitfalls and makes optimal use of his resources. I couldn’t imagine a more perfect movie for their weekend. “Does everything ‘Burst’ promises,” we hear from Guillermo del Toro
Guillermo del Toro explains the deeper meaning behind the film
Three-time Oscar winner Guillermo del Toro didn’t stop at expressing his praise for “No One Will Save You,” but instead started a thread on X where he succinctly explained the deeper meaning behind the film. Above all, it revolves around a religious foundation that del Toro recognized in the encounter between humans and aliens:
“There is an essential principle in Catholic dogma (so you can reject it or accept it) that serves as the narrative backbone here: Grace and salvation come from pain and suffering. In this passage they find redemption.”
del Toro continues: ‘No one will save you. By doing this, you save yourself. You can find it in the book of Job, in Jonah under the whale and in many other religions. The world – the essence of the world – is a paradoxical mixture of destruction and creation.”
In his latest post performing ‘No One Will Save You’, the director explains: “Every attempt by man to suppress one side leads to strife. Because the universe is not cooperating. I think the key is the moment of ‘communion’ through the Eucharist of the foreign identity capsule. The film has depth.”
With his performance, Guillermo del Toro makes it clear that with ‘No One Will Save You’ Brian Duffield has managed to stage a genre film that also works on a second level. Exactly what has always made science fiction and horror cinema so special and complex. Moreover, Duffield will certainly be more than flattered that a great director like Del Toro has delved so deeply into his work.
