They Will Kill You
A woman answers a help wanted ad to be a housekeeper in a mysterious high-rise in New York City, not realizing she is entering a community that has seen a number of disappearances over the years and may be under the grip of a Satanic cult.
Audience Sentiment
The first attack
Kitchen confrontation
The film starts strongly with Asia's surprise combat skills creating genuine excitement, but loses momentum significantly during the middle exposition-heavy scenes before partially recovering with its bizarre finale
They Will Kill You hooks audiences immediately with its surprising action-horror premise and Zazie Beetz's fierce performance, but suffers from severe pacing issues in its middle section where exposition and repetitive sequences drain the initial energy. While some viewers embrace the film's commitment to absurdist violence, many find the finale too over-the-top to be effective.
