In New York, the shy Christian likes his chief Mara but is afraid to invite her to date with him. When he stumbles upon his old friend Wyatt that is passing by New York, Christian invites him to stay in his apartment. Christian does not know that Wyatt is a psychotic man that believes that people are turning into evil creatures and the war between humans and these creatures is close. Further, he suspects that Christian is one of these creatures. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
"They look like people" is one of those movies that makes you think rather than cringe. Its like a psychological drama/horror. The scariness of this movie can vary from individual to individual due to how they each interpret and think into it. There is great use of atmospheric sounds in this movie, which i personally love. I love the creeping and building sense of dread this movie offers. It is a little daring of the filmmakers to go for such a craved concept, yet on such a tight and low budget. This movie has no gasping or jaw dropping scenes, and there isn't much blood at all, but it still has great body and still feels very full. I couldn't look away the whole time. This movie has the ability to pull you in and not let up until your feeling less boggled by it. The character development was great. We really get to know them. I kept wanting to see how very creepy situations panned out between main characters. You can almost predict the outcome of this movie, but then you second guess yourself, and this happens multiple times throughout the movie. Overall I thought this was a pretty good movie with good acting and a very eerie vibe. I would rate it 6.5 out of 10 stars.
