Evelyn shows her feminine strength through childbirth and protecting her baby, while Lee reveals his fatherly love for his daughter in a way that echoes biblical themes. The roles of a mother and a father are explored through the ways Lee and Evelyn try to survive when separated. Lee and Evelyn are a picture of a strong, husband and wife team, revealing a combination of tender love and no-nonsense partnership in survival. Near the climax, Evelyn pleads with Lee, “Who are we if we can’t protect them?”The movie’s family-centered themes lead to a refreshing, healthy depiction of family love and hope that echo several biblical themes. The themes of parenting and the difficulty of keeping children safe (in any world, let alone the one in the movie) are carefully woven throughout the story. Unlike many horror movies and thrillers, the conflict comes from an unbeatable opponent, rather than stupid decisions made by the protagonists.The core of the movie is grounded in the personal relationships between the Abbott family, from Evelyn’s pregnancy to Lee’s troubled relationship with his daughter.
