Reviews Featuring Marc Blucas
Fans of the novel will no doubt want to see this out of pure curiosity, but it offers little different from the average period drama. Garai is one to look out for in the future, though.
Despite being almost completely overlooked upon its original cinematic release, and resorting desperately to the 'Wes Craven presents' imprimatur to gain attention, 'They' is an atmospheric, carefully controlled piece of psychological horror about the impossibility of casting light upon the irrational. Its subtle use of shadow and gloom is best appreciated with the lights turned down, but do keep in mind that 'they come for you when it's dark'.
The Ala-slow, more like.
