They Came Back Les Revenants
The Big Picture Zombie flicks are a unique kind of survivalist horror. They usually feature rotting flesh, chase scenes, headshots, and a lot of biting. Robin Campillo’s 2004 directorial debut, They Came Back , refuses to humor these genre staples. This French film favors a slow-burn, psychological angle to scare its audience. They Came Back follows three families in a provincial French town after 13,000 dead people suddenly reappear over the course of two hours.
Early on, the use of infrared cameras is established. It is revealed that the returned have a body temperature four to five degrees lower than a regular human’s. The cameras are attached to large white balloons and float in the sky all over town. Infrared footage and shots of the cameras in the sky are then frequently incorporated into the movie. Up until the introduction of the cameras, the film has maintained a strident dismissal of most zombie motifs.
A town council to help monitor and reintegrate the returned was formed before the start of the movie. Often, this council functions as a source of exposition, with scientists and experts frequently revealing a new factoid about the returned. And yet, despite being the primary source of concrete information, the council only confirms what the audience and other characters already fear.
