They Will Kill You has a little bit of everything — but let’s be honest, the kill scenes are the main event. And there are a LOT of them.
If I had to compare this to another movie, Kill Bill is the closest match I can find. The gore, the pacing, the absolutely over-the-top fighting, the music — it all has that same electric, almost theatrical energy that made the Kill Bill movies so iconic. It’s the kind of violence that somehow becomes its own art form.

What surprised me was how well the humor balanced all the carnage. This isn’t a movie that takes itself seriously, and that’s exactly the right call. Zazie Beetz leads the charge and is every bit the action star you didn’t know you needed. Tom Felton and Patricia Arquette round things out — this is a cast that fully commits to the chaos, and it shows.
The soundtrack had this punchy, almost playful energy that made the bloodiest moments even more fun to watch, like the music was in on the joke right along with you. The camera work is equally impressive — Director Kirill Sokolov clearly has a love for turning the violence dial all the way to eleven, and the creative shot choices keep the energy from ever going flat. There’s no slow burn here — this movie hits the ground running and rarely lets up.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let's you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It's really a wonderful app. I've subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn't seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven't tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn't make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We'll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.

Fair warning: I lost count of how many times I curled into my seat because the scenes were just that much. Not out of fear — out of sheer “Oh my God, did they really just do that?” And yes. Yes, they did.
I’ll be honest, high-octane kill fests aren’t usually my thing. But if they ARE your thing? Oh, you are going to have a field day. They Will Kill You is the perfect recipe for quirky with a generous side of “Oh God, did I just see that?”

Plot
A woman answers a help wanted ad to be a housekeeper in a mysterious high-rise in New York City, not realizing she is entering a community that has seen a number of disappearances over the years and may be under the grip of a Satanic cult.
RunPee.com owes RunPee Sis a huge debt of gratitude. She sees any movie needed with no complaints and has done so for ten years (even basing Thanksgiving and Christmas family festivities around the seeing films). In 2015 Sis ran the entire RunPee enterprise herself, while RunPee Dan, Jilly and Mom went traipsing off to Europe. Sis is the spider in the web holding the RunPee family together — besides being a funny, well rounded person, and a joyous pleasure to be around. Her favorite films start and end with horror (which thank goodness she’s happy to see, since most of us don’t have the stomach for it) — but also likes silly comedies, sad dramas, and musicals of all types. If you’ve used a Peetime for a scary film, you probably have RunPee Sis to thank for it.
Favorite movie genre: Horror, horror, and more horror. The more disturbing, the better. Period.
