Critics Consensus: A hyper-stylized battle royale with a vivid gothic setting, They Will Kill You's cyclical structure can grow repetitive but a fierce Zazie Beetz keeps the bloodletting infectiously fun.

Metacritic: 49 (26 Reviews)

SYNOPSIS:

A desperate woman answers a cryptic ad for a live-in housekeeper at a luxurious yet foreboding New York City high-rise. Upon arrival, she uncovers the building's sinister history: residents have vanished without trace for decades, fueling whispers of a Satanic cult lurking in the shadows. As she navigates the eccentric, secretive community, paranoia mounts—doors creak at night, symbols appear in the walls, and her new "family" hides deadly secrets. What starts as a gig from hell spirals into a fight for survival against ritualistic horrors and twisted loyalties.
