Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Moreau and Palud play on the way our minds fill in the gaps of the unknown and the very primal fear of things going bump in the night.
A nerve-wracking finale, a 30-minute chase through the house's catacombs, followed by a closing image that will chill you to the bone.
Those who like their horror served up neat, no chaser, can safely belly up to Them. It is a pared-down French thriller that trades splatter and gore for tense efficiency.
Them is Haneke on training wheels.
