They/Them Images: First-Look At Blumhouse Conversion Therapy Horror
Since it was first announced last year, Blumhouse has just released several images of their newest project They/Them. Previously named Whistler Camp, the now titled They/Them (pronounced ‘They-slash-Them’) is the directorial debut of John Logan. While this is his first go at directing, Logan is no stranger to film as he’s best known for writing a plethora of hit movie scripts like Skyfall, Hugo, and Gladiator.
They/Them takes place at a conversion therapy camp named Whistler. The staff, led by Owen Whistler (Kevin Bacon), psychologically tortures the LGBTQIA+ teenagers in an attempt to convert them into cisgender and straight people through progressively more perturbing means. Their week-long session is only worsened by the sudden appearance of a mysterious killer, making the teens band together to protect each other from both the camp staff and the murderer. After its initial announcement in September, quick work has been made on this project as it’s set for an August 5 release on Peacock.

The first official images of Blumhouse’s They/Them were shared by Peacock. These images show the teenagers upon their arrival at Whistler Camp and Bacon’s Owen Whistler seemingly welcoming them before their torture begins. Opposite Bacon is Work in Progress actor Theo Germaine as Jordan, a non-binary camper who makes a deal with their religious parents to legally emancipate if the camp doesn’t ‘work’. The other campers are made up of Quei Tann, Anna Lore, Austin Crute, Monique Kim, Cooper Koch, and Darwin del Fabro, with Carrie Preston and Anna Chlumsky starring as part of the camp staff.
