Wes Craven's "They" Thread

[myersman88]

I Just Saw this movie for the second time I thought it was disturbing what did U think?

[horrorqueen7]

I havent seen it yet. was it anygood?

[boogeyman87]

I dont remember much of it, but i do remember i thought it was confusing as hell. Not that great too.

[LP~MyersFan~25]

I've seen it and in my opinion it was boring and not scary at all. Much better creature movies out there than this one.

The movie sucked big time. I turned it off 40 minutes into it. Just for the record you should have said Wes Craven Present's They. Craven was only a executive producer of the film not the director.

Seemed like a rip-off of Nightmare on Elm Street, don'tcha think?

[Cruel Intentions]

I dont think I'll see this, if I do it won't be for a while.

yeah whole dreams concept was a bit similar. Really like this movie. Always been a huge fan of the first NOES because i love the whole idea of dream monsters & this movie just fueled my enjoyment of them.

not a bad horror flick.

I remember it, I hated it though. I rented it once, and was highly dissapointed in it.

I liked They. I didn't think it was bad at all. Had a couple of creepy scenes and a good atmosphere. I enjoyed it.

Disturbingly bad? I agree on that if so.

Cool concept, horrible execution. There are few movies I actually come close to hating, or cannot watch again, especially horror movies. Some of those are due to some content or the overall message of the film. This is one of the very few, due to being a bad movie. I can enjoy stinkers, but this is just not enjoyable to watch in nearly every way, it was just a mess of a plot, incoherent, bad character development, characters having no motivation/reason for doing things (doing things out of the blue that make no sense), it dragged on, very drab looking, anticlimactic, deaths with less meaning than even the most cookie cutter of slashers (mainly due to the fact that these deahts were supposed to have meaning), etc.. I like the concept of the creatures and all, but Boogeyman (2005) did soemthing similar a lot better, even if the ending to Boogeyman wasn't really good.

I fell asleep in the theaters when I saw this one...really bad if you ask me.

I have to say that this flick has some pretty creepy moments to it. The scene of the goblins in the air vent, or when the bugges were popping out out of the kid's closet in the flick's beginning. However, for me, they flick is overall a major disappointment due to its whole sorted history from its inseption at script stage to the final cut. As one who read the original script by Brandon Hood before renting the flick, and then seeing the final product, it was rather a let down to see how Dimension cherry picked the original script apart to end up with ....this.:mad: But if you want to read one of spookiest script I've ever read(I had trouble sleeping the night I read this one.) Take my word for it ,and it read it here. (http://www.joblo.com/scripts/they.htm)

I liked it just because there was stuff that really scared me. Contorting body parts freak me out. It's like the faces thing in the Emily Rose trailers (and that one on the website *shudder*). They freak me out every time I see them. The faces in The Ring 1 and 2 scare me too. The movies themselves aren't terrifying to me, but it's hard for me to watch the faces.
I don't know what it is, but that kind of thing REALLY gets to me. I can watch people being stalked and killed and feel nothing more than, "aw I liked them" or "yeah I don't give a damn; kill him/her off." It's just this ONE thing that I have, like this phobia, I don't know. It's weird.

[Nightmareman88]

It was Disturbing, Creepy and dark, Wich I like. It was somewhat slow now and then, but still the story keept me exciting through out the hole movie. Althought It looses from being Rewatchabal.

[Kara Strode]

I absolutely hated this movie. HATED it. I don't remember it ever freaking me out. I thought it was slow and boring.

Kudos to those who liked it...you obviously saw something I didn't.

[writer93]

yeah, I thought it was an extremely stupid movie, I hated every minute of it.

I'll check that out, because as I said, it had a good concept and the movie just seemed to have no flow to it, so it seemed chopped up and very piecemeal. Having about 2 parts that had any creepyness to them, but the other 98% of the movie being horrible is a waste of a good concept.
