Hell Is That Noise: When Wyatt senses that the monsters may be near, the sound drops out and is overwhelmed by an ominous buzzing noise, like the swarming of flies. | |

Paranoid Thriller | |
They Look Like People / int_819deed9 | comment |
Paranoid Thriller: The movie is presented as a horror film about an impending apocalypse at the hands of body-snatching demons/monsters, but the creatures are non-existent. This horror flick is actually about a profoundly mentally ill man entrenched in his hallucinations and delusions, convinced that anyone around him could be a demon. The horrific visuals, disconcerting sounds, and phone calls are all in the protagonist's mind. | |

They Look Like Us Now: Wyatt believes that the monsters can take the form of humans. Anyone passing you by on the street, even your own friends and family, might really be a monster. Except the monsters only ever existed in Wyatt's head. | |

Alone with the Psycho | |
They Look Like People / int_dfe687c9 | comment |
Alone with the Psycho: Wyatt does this twice. He brings Mara down to the basement under the belief that she's part of the resistance, but she's creeped out by his behavior and tries to leave. When he moves to stop her, she threatens to throw him on his ass. Wyatt reveals his beliefs to Christian in Christian's apartment while brandishing a hammer and behaving in an agitated and aggressive manner. | |

No Antagonist: The monsters are all in Wyatt's head. The only struggles in the film are internal. It's a genuinely scary horror movie with no actual monsters and no deaths! Whadya know?. | |

Closet Geek: Christian and Wyatt were both geeks in school. Christian has become riddled with self-loathing, believing that he was a total loser and is much cooler now, but Wyatt doesn't look back on those days with any shame. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
They Look Like People / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: It takes the entire movie and a whole lot of trauma on both their parts, but Wyatt and Christian both manage to overcome their mental issues (hallucinations and self-esteem) that were plaguing their lives. | |

Death Seeker | |
They Look Like People / int_fff371b4 | comment |
Death Seeker: Christian admits that he thought about killing himself. In the final scene, he welcomes the opportunity for Wyatt to either kill him or spare him. At one point, Wyatt sticks the nailgun in his mouth, but decides not to pull the trigger. He tries to nail his hand, but the nailgun jams. | |
