Rey P Mar 7, 2019 Kinda slow but a pretty good plot that didn't give itself away until the very end.

Finn S Dec 2, 2018 Not nearly as graphic or disturbing as I was expecting. The film was very good but loses points for the protagonists being so stupid. Twice they had the opportunity to kill one of the antagonists and opted not to. Thats very frustrating and irritating to watch. Otherwise it was a fine movie that had a lot of suspense. The acting was very good as you could really feel the dread they were going through. The cinematography was also great as the 3 locations were perfectly isolated and creepy - a huge huge house, a dark forest and underground tunnels. The plot wasn't unique but was executed very well.

Nov 20, 2018 "They wouldn't play with usâ? gives us the exact same chills âbecause you were homeâ? did in The Strangers. With the rise of the delightfully gory New French Extremity movement in horror, Them is a refreshing break from the over the top gore. The film claims to be based on true events and at first, it is hard to establish where this film will go. You will be questioning whether itâ(TM)s a thriller, home invasion or possible slasher. The movie focuses on two main characters, thereâ(TM)s school teacher Clementine and her partner Lucas, who have moved from France to an idyllic home in the Romanian capital. What was supposed to be a romantic night-in in their secluded home turns into a nightmare. When they witness their car being stolen, lights being turned off and the phone lines cut, they realize they are not as secluded as they believed. As the movie is only a little over an hour long, it comes as no surprise that there is little to the plot but is that the directorâ(TM)s motive? Mindless violence by the hands of youths, could that be a statement that mindless violence portrayed by film, tv etc has an impact on some teenagers today? See more

Theodore W Aug 9, 2018 Them Them (Ils) 2006 is an unsung classic in the home invasion genre. When I first watched this film I was not sure what the "Evil" was until half way through when the main protagonists backed into a hooded assailant in what was probably the most suspenseful scene in modern day horror. The gripping film score by René-Marc Bini only serves to enhance an already suspenseful story of a school teacher attached in her own home by children while her fiancé struggles to protect her as they are cut off from the outside world. Them is complete with themes of isolation as well as misguided trust as in the climax of the film the protagonist puts her faith in the wrong person. Movies like the strangers owe a great debt to " Them" This is easily on my top 20 horror films of the 2000's so far. I hope you all enjoy the film and it's brilliant score as much as I did. See more

Harry R Feb 1, 2018 At its best this is a very good and unnervingly scary thriller, especially when the menace is suggested through silence and shadow. What little plot there is - young attractive couple laid siege in their vast country mansion - matters less than what the filmmakers are trying to do: scare their audience! Well acted too, and only 75 minutes long. See more

Rey R Dec 17, 2017 The film The Strangers is loosely based on/ inspired by. I liked our main protagonists better here, the main antagonists were equally great in each, and I liked the ending better here. In the end, both are about equal to each other, though I think I liked The Strangers a tiny bit better. Still definitely worth a watch See more
