Best Answer

I believe they're referring to the fact that Maddie is a deaf/mute character.

Normally, one would expect a lot of screaming and pleading for one's life from the victim in a film like this. Perhaps some taunting calls from the killer. Lots of sounds, basically. However, since Maddie is deaf/mute, she can't scream or bargain verbally and has to find non-verbal ways of communicating with her assailant. Likewise, the killer needs to find non-verbal ways to taunt his victim so she knows he's coming for her, in order to generate the kind of terror he clearly preys on.

So, it's not a twist in the sense of a "twist ending," but rather a twist in sense of "not your usual kind of slasher flick."

I haven't seen the movie, but based on the reviews (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5022702/reviews) the movie is a home invasion horror film. The twist is the protagonist is deaf, so it's a new angle on the traditional genre.
