| Projected FiguresAnton Biteldown in the basement the film's dual status as indie buddy movie and psychological horror converges into one. |
| The Robot's VoiceLuke Y. Thompson...plays like mumblecore that gradually gets twisted into paranoia like something George Noory or Alex Jones might discuss on late-night radio. |
| Killer Movie ReviewsAndrea Chaseas emotionally engrossing as it is suspenseful while it explores the terror and absurdity that lurk just below the surface of theoretical normality |
| Los Angeles TimesKatie WalshAn effective and unsettling neuro-psychological thriller, They Look Like People creates a creepily mundane sense of dread in its depictions of a schizophrenic's paranoid delusions. |
| Film School RejectsRob HunterThe character work and humanity impress, but thankfully the film never lets the depth and heart get in the way of the creepy, terror-inducing bits. |
| Playback:stlSarah Boslaugh...a low-budget flick that leaves you guessing to the last minute.... |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid NusairAn intriguing if not-entirely-successful horror effort... |
| The Film StageNick AllenRelying on a flat center performance and horror cliches, the film is unable to think outside of its confines, playing its cards too clumsily to ever hint there’s something deeper going on than what’s on the screen. |
| User ReviewNicholas WMay be the best psychological horror movie I've ever seen. |
| User ReviewNathan FThis movie is very creepy and had a good ending. They Look Like People does well at making you wonder what the line between insanity and reality is. Love this movie, even though it is low budget and had little special effects. |
