They Came Back (French: Les Revenants) is a French zombie film, originally released in 2004. The film was screened at the Hamburg Fantasy Filmfest in Hamburg, Germany, the Venice Film Festival in Italy, and the Toronto Film Festival in Canada.
Unlike traditional zombie films, where the undead characters wish to digest or otherwise harm the human characters, the 70 million people who return from the dead in They Came Back want simply to re-integrate themselves into society. In the French village where the film takes place, the towns population must cope with the social and emotional ramifications of the dead coming back to life. The dead are not unlike children, having to relearn to walk, talk, and remember.[1]
