The Big Picture The use of an unreliable narrator reaches new heights in Perry Blackshear’s 2015 debut film, They Look Like People. Following MacLeod Andrews as Wyatt, They Look Like People teases what is potentially an invasion of evil shapeshifters targeting major cities. While visiting his old friend, Christian , Wyatt desperately tries to prepare for the incoming apocalypse.
Combined with the looming threat of the phone calls is Andrews' performance as Wyatt. Andrews never plays Wyatt as unhinged or manic, rather imbuing him with a desperate dignity and dedication to protecting the people he loves. Likewise, it is through Wyatt’s own admission of doubt that the invasion is called into question. He seeks out a therapist, expressing that he does not believe himself to be suffering from schizophrenia, but acknowledging that something is very wrong.
‘They Look Like People’ Has Minimal, Yet Brilliant Sound Design There is almost no soundtrack or musical composition in They Look Like People. Instead, the film provides sudden bursts of noise to break up a purposeful silence. The sound is therefore incredibly naturalistic, providing an in-body experience meant to mimic Wyatt’s experience throughout the film.
