Them


This is an excellent French film that is very similar to the film "The Strangers"...which releases Tuesday on DVD.

It follows Clementine and her significant other Lucas who live in a remote mansion in Snagow. After a strange phone call before bed Clem is woken up by several strange noises outside and sees that her car has moved.

No electricity, strange lights shining into the house, and short encounters with shadowy figures leave this couple terrified for their life. Will they survive?

This film really makes use of shadows and natural sound which amplifies the creepiness of it. In the beginning it mentions that it is based on a true story, which parts are true and which are fabricated I'm not sure, but the added element of it being based on something that actually happened definitely made me appreciate the film more.

This is definitely one worth your time.
