Hi team, in hope you might be able to help me with the name of a film I once started watching halfway though and would like to watch again. The film has a plot where an entire town in the United States is eradicated by government/military forces because they witnessed something - possibly aliens but i can’t remember what. Two people manage to hide and survive. The film ends where they are moving to the next town but the army are closing in and the same thing is about to happen there.

I’ve already asked AI and the film I am thinking of is not The Quiet Earth as it suggested. I think it’s probably from the 2000s and is set in America.

Thank you in advance!

Sounds a lot like the 2015 movie Hidden, but they were a family with a young daughter? Bill Skarsgard stars in that and it was directed by the Duffer brothers who write/direct Stranger things. If it is the movie you are thinking of, you need to watch to the end as there's a MASSIVE twist !

@WaystarRoy that’s it!! Well done as now I’ve read the actual synopsis I realise that my description wasn’t the best!
