Synopsis: A couple is toyed with at their secluded home. (Seriously, this is the kind of synopsis I wish they'd start writing for movies. Even the terse synopses on Netflix say too much. And don't even get me started on trailers.)
Like(s): Olivia Bonamy, first and foremost. The use of sound--make sure you turn the volume up--really kept me guessing! The film gripped me with its heightened suspense and threatened my life until it was over. Though I enjoyed The Strangers, I have to head over to I Like Horror Movies and tell Carl that I'm casting my ballot for Them.
Dislike(s): If I told you, I'd be handing out spoilers. Suffice it to say the one thing I disliked by no means took away from the quality of this movie.
Candidate For Omission: No.
Also Try: The Strangers, High Tension, Funny Games, Eden Lake.
Everyone could use a prescription for Them, it solves all of lifes petty problems
ReplyDeleteFrom now on, whenever a friend starts telling me of their woes, I'm going to simply administer a copy of Them.
ReplyDeleteI REALLY FOUND MYSELF LOVING THIS MOVIE, I AM A SUCKER FOR HOME INVASION TYPE FILMS JUST BECAUSE YOUR HOME IS SUPPOSE TO BE THE SAFE SPOT.
