Bird Box Ending, Explained

Bird Box takes place in a post-apocalyptic hellhole where trusting the wrong person can end in disaster, but its ending is so uplifting that it almost seems too good to be true. The numbers don’t lie. People love post-apocalyptic movies in which survival is less about escaping the monster and more about surviving human nature. There’s just something interesting about watching people fight for their lives against supernatural odds. Just look at classic zombie movies like Night of the Living Dead or indie hits like 28 Days Later. Maybe people just like seeing how terrifying situations bring out the worst in characters.
