They Will Kill You (2026) stars Zazie Beetz as Asia Reeves, a young woman who takes a job as a maid in a satanic hotel on purpose. But why? Reasons! My wife and I enjoyed They Will Kill You because it's a freakin' fun ride; though for me, I would've enjoyed it considerably more back when I still liked Quentin Tarantino. This feels a lot like Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003), which is the only work of QT's that I still revisit ever.
The action choreography is top notch (though a little video game-y in parts) and the synth-heavy score by Carlos Rafael Rivera is quite good. It's great to see Heather Graham and Patricia Arquette in action, even though Arquette's Irish accent is a little dodgy. I live in Florida, so you know I'm an expert on Irish dialects. So all-in-all, They Will Kill You is worth a look and besides, who doesn't love a US-South African-Canadian co-production from a Russian director!?
