4.5/5
With absolutely fantastic performances and characters written with depth, the series explores different themes in such a way that it all rushes at you relentlessly episode after episode. Go to Full Review

4.5/5
The theme of generational trauma is executed well, using layered character elements along with visceral and disturbing imagery to produce a pointed social commentary that unfortunately is still more than relevant today. Go to Full Review

Deborah Ayorinde once again delivers a strong leading performance, balanced by Luke James, which makes Them: The Scare worth checking out, but it does not work, as a whole, as well as last season. Go to Full Review

Them: The Scare, the second instalment of the anthology, is a brilliant piece of psychological body horror, much more interesting and better crafted than its predecessor. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Gareth v Jun 24 It's boring. Yes, there are some themes that it tries to convey admirally but it is overshadowed by a lame serial killer plot that leaves so many perplexing questions unanswered. See more D P Apr 4 Enjoyed this entire series. Both seasons. This one was more digestible for the viewer than the first season, but the artistry was commendable for both stories. I think the climax was underwhelming here. But that's okay. Still an enjoyable experience. See more MD A Apr 1 It is about a masterpiece the villain is a IC four villain but this villain note what I acting what I act real talent Sara Dard bhula Diya See more Scott M Mar 24 Tied with The Haunting of Hill House for the scariest and most heart-wrenching horror tv show I've ever seen. Season 1 was good, but this season is incredible. See more Julia I Feb 25 Not very good. Actors mediocre at BEST 👎🏼 See more Ricardo d Feb 16 Começou morno, mas com um propósito. No fim, tudo se encaixa divinamente. Diferente da primeira temporada onde o climax não se encaixa e alguns arcos terminam de forma forçada, aqui tudo fica bem explicado, editado e genialmente se conecta com a primeira temporada. A história é mais coesa, e o real se conecta com o sobrenatural de forma mais sensata. Um destaque ao personagem Edmund que fez maravilhas nesta fase. See more Read all reviews
