They Wait is a 2007 Canadian horror film. It stars Jaime King as a mother attempting to find the truth and save her son, Regan Oey, when threatened by spirits during the Chinese tradition of Ghost Month. The other leading star is Chinese Canadian actor Terry Chen, who plays her husband. It was both filmed, and set, in the city of Vancouver, in British Columbia in Canada, and was featured at the 2007 Toronto Film Festival.
Critical reviews for the film have been mixed, with the film currently holding arotten rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Joe Leydon of Variety wrote that Director Ernie Barbarash makes judicious use of CGI trickery in one key scene, he cleverly shocks his audience into laughing but at heart, hes an oldschool traditionalist when it comes to scary stuff. The Toronto Star and ReelFilm both panned the film, with ReelFilms David Nusair saying that They Wait is ...a tedious and downright silly piece of work.
