Uma abordagem psicologicamente mais madura e cinematograficamente sofisticada do mesmo assunto com que a brutalidade britânica O Lago Perfeito trabalha. Enquanto esta última se chocou com a sua violência labrega e a sua franqueza, o filme Eles aposta em arrepios gradualmente crescentes, no mistério, no medo do invisível, em brincar com a câmara e especialmente com o som (!). E fá-lo, embora não de uma forma inovadora - basicamente já vimos tudo isto antes em algum lugar - mas com honestidade e impacto excessivos. O filme Eles é um dos poucos filmes de terror que não degrada o seu género, mas mostra antes a importância da habilidade do cineasta nele. Os franceses são excelentes de novo.

The best horror film of 2006. The French have outdone themselves again delivering a movie precisely to my taste. The heroes are likeable, the villains are mysterious and the twist is chilling. And, surprisingly, the experience was even more intense after a second screening.

The intimate atmosphere of one house is transformed into a spectacular atmospheric theatre based on a simple plot and thanks to a pair of likable actors and a straightforward effort, the entire suspenseful film blows by in less than 80 minutes. There’s no point here for morons or huggable happy endings and it’s a clear hit for all those who like to be scared, and others as well.

After a promising opening, when the director immediately reveals his intention to get deep into the viewer’s skin through a chilling and creeping atmosphere, comes a slightly duller part filled with everything we've seen a hundred times before: something (or someone) is outside the house, the shutters slam, the fuses trip, etc. But after a while it gets pretty damn interesting, the story picks up a lot of pace and it's clear that there's more going on than just a contrived haunting. The camera clearly revels in cramped and dark corners, and every shot gives you the feeling that you’re being watched, that someone may already be on your back, and that they definitely want to hurt you. The director took this story really seriously and created excellent filmmaking that will get on your nerves beautifully without being bloody or disgusting.

I mean, I don't know. I don't doubt something like this could happen in Romania, but the film is pretty uninteresting. For anyone who has seen a larger number of horror movies, Them has practically nothing new to offer. Plus, the memories of Eden Lake haven't faded and this is really just a poor relation.
