One Scary Night: "Them" Is a Gripping European Thriller
|
In French-Romanian thriller "Them" ("Ils"), a French couple ClA mentine (Olivia Bonamy) and Lucas (MichaA l Cohen) are living alone in a big, old mansion in the Bucharest suburb surrounded by the woods. When the night comes, ClA mentine and Lucas are terrorized by the presence of "Them" roaming outside, waiting for the chance to invade their house.
The simple story works. Actually, the storytelling of "Them" is very orthodox with its frightening introductory part that sets up the tone of the entire film. Though some of the techniques to scare audiences are not exactly new, the director team David Moreau and Xavier Palud successfully build up the tension of each scene with clever use of authentic locations of Romania and grainy, brooding photography.
"Them" is free from boring dialogues and flashy visuals. Gore is almost non-existent, but that makes this atmospheric thriller scarier and more intense. The stylish 77-minute film is a realistic take of one scary night, tightly edited and well-acted. |
