Here Alone is a post-apocalyptic thriller movie that takes place in the woods of upstate New York. The movie follows the story of Ann, a young woman who survived a deadly virus that wiped out the majority of the population. The few survivors that were left turned into violent, flesh-eating creatures, making it necessary for Ann to move to the wilderness to avoid them.

Ann is living in isolation, trying to make her survival sustainable. She has a routine of scavenging for food, maintaining her safe space, and keeping her weapons sharp. When she hears a noise near her woods, she prepares herself for the worst, but it turns out to be a family seeking shelter. The family comprises of Olivia, Chris, and their daughter, who have been traveling to find a safe place to live.

Ann is hesitant to accept their company at first, knowing that forming attachments with people can complicate the survival process. However, the family proves to be quite useful since Chris is an experienced hunter and can protect them against the infected. As time passes, the family becomes more comfortable around Ann, and they help her with her homestead. Ann starts to feel less alone, but she also becomes fearful that something might happen to the family, and they might turn against her.

Ann's past is interwoven into the story, and there are scenes of her husband Jason and her baby daughter farcaised about their time together before the virus took over the world. These scenes offer insight into Ann's character and show her pain and desperation as she tries to survive. She blames herself for not protecting her family from the virus and is haunted by the memory of being unable to save her baby daughter.

The movie's pace is slow as it reflects Ann's daily routine in the wilderness, but it adds to the tension since there is always a sense of danger lurking in the background. The movie's cinematography is fantastic, with the directors emphasizing the beauty and the eeriness of the woods. The directors use the environment to show the dichotomy between beauty and danger, and they do it in a subtle yet effective way.

As the story progresses, tensions rise, and the characters are tested. The family must decide whether to stay with Ann or leave and risk their lives outside in hopes of finding other survivors. Ann must confront her past traumas and find a reason to keep fighting for survival. The movie's ending is thought-provoking, leaving the audience with questions about the future of the characters and what it means to survive in a world where everything is gone.

Overall, Here Alone is an enthralling, heartbreaking movie about survival, loss, and hope. It's a realistic glimpse into a post-apocalyptic world and the difficult choices people must make in such a world. The acting is phenomenal, with Lucy Walters giving a powerful performance as Ann, the woman haunted by her past and struggling to find a reason to keep going. Gina Piersanti and Adam David Thompson bring depth to their roles as the family seeking refuge, and the chemistry between them and Lucy Walters makes the movie even more engaging. Here Alone is not a movie with a happy ending, but it's a movie that will linger in the viewer's mind for days after watching it.

Here Alone is a 2016 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 29 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.6 and a MetaScore of 59.
