Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting They Live in the Grey sets up a conventional haunted house scenario but instead revels languidly in grief, presenting a somber feature without many chills. Rated: 2/5 Feb 17, 2022 Full Review Leslie Felperin Guardian Properly scary and thoughtfully constructed, with unusual editing and framing sleights of hand... Rated: 4/5 Feb 16, 2022 Full Review Kat Hughes THN Not as great as it could be, but They Live in the Grey is made respectable by a couple of brilliantly intense sequences. Rated: 3/5 Sep 27, 2022 Full Review Alix Turner Horror Obsessive I’m sorry if the film sounds too miserable. The content is heavy—right from the start—for sure, but it is rewarding, undoubtedly impressive... Sep 7, 2022 Full Review Kevin Carr Fat Guys at the Movies It's got some great ideas and great imagery and there is some genuinely excellent stuff in this film... but it just takes forever. Rated: 1.5/4 Mar 12, 2022 Full Review Nguyên Lê The Spool The result is a dragged-out two hours that mostly matches its title for tone and feeling, despite the occasional bloody streak and sadness buildup.

Cristian s Esta película tranquilamente podría ser una secuela, o existir en el mismo universo, de The Sixth Sense.. No porque sea una burda copia sino porque es muy similar en ritmo, ambientación, escenas de susto, efectos prácticos e incluso sentimientos.. Y eso no es malo, al contrario, nunca pensé que iba a volver a ver algo similar que me haga sentir lo que aquella la primera vez. Sino es la mejor de Shudder que vi hasta ahora esta seguro adentro del top. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Hugo - Shudder F Despite a stellar performance from Michelle Krusiec (a social worker who is able to see dead people), "They Live in the Grey" fails to drag the viewer into the drama of its main character (the loss of a son). When a horror movie replicates a stereotype of trauma already seen too many times, the audience is no longer compelled to be part of it. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Very slow and just generally, not scary. Maybe if it were a book... but as a movie it's a bunch of burning scenes with next to no dialogue Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/05/22 Full Review Audience Member Damn that was boring. An emotional drama rather than a horror. The supernatural themes are minimal - it's more about the protagonist's inability to cope with her life and her trauma. Watch something else if you are after horror. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Beautifully shot and excellently acted, They Live in the Grey delivers an unsettling (and at times uncomfortable) portrayal of loss and grief told within a clairvoyant centered ghost story. Every appearance of an apparition packs a punch, either visually or emotionally, and lays the foundation upon which the film builds its narrative. The film presents a story that is familiar to the horror genre, but the presentation feels fresh. It's runtime of 124 minutes is a bit long, but the payoff is worth it in the end with the suspense-filled climax of the story. Michelle Krusiec's lead performance is absolutely wonderful and makes this film a must-see for horror fans. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member meh; it's not a bad watch at all - fairly predictable, but still done well - it was just sort of long. definitely a slow burn so make sure you're in the mood. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
