THEY WILL KILL YOU unleashes a blood-soaked, high-octane horror-action-comedy in which a young woman must survive the night at the Virgil, a demonic cult's mysterious and twisted death-trap of a lair, before becoming their next offering in a uniquely brazen, big screen battle of epic kills and wickedly dark humor.

Critics Consensus

A hyper-stylized battle royale with a vivid gothic setting, They Will Kill You's cyclical structure can grow repetitive but a fierce Zazie Beetz keeps the bloodletting infectiously fun.

Audience Says

Pop it hot and fresh, They Will Kill You is best enjoyed with a bucket of popcorn and a stomach for gory fun, delightfully served by its magnetic final girl, Zazie Beetz.

“They Will Kill You” feels like helping my two-year-old niece put together a fairly simple, 12-piece puzzle, and watching her exclaim with delight before asking if we can assemble it again. Sooner or later, the final picture is going to lose its novelty.

The lack of originality, along with a shallow script that would benefit from a rewrite or two, makes They Will Kill You a bit boring.

But for all its bloodshed, the movie’s not sharp enough to land a cutting blow — or even to break skin.

While Beetz has loads of screen presence and is impressively tough in a tight corner, it would be great if They Will Kill You gave her more to do.

‘…They Will Kill You is a stale, derivative, confused film that taxes patience; it’s a sub-sub-Suspiria knock-off and barely has an original bone in its body….’

It gave me what I expected. Mindless action with some dark humor. For what it is, it was a fascinating popcorn experience.
