Reader's Guide

Him is notable as a genre-blending film that combines supernatural horror with sports drama, exploring themes of sacrifice, legacy, and the dark side of athletic ambition. Despite a budget of $27 million, it grossed only $28 million worldwide and received generally negative reviews, with a 30% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a Metacritic score of 38. The film's critical reception highlighted its stylish execution but criticized its handling of its promising concept. The film features two alternate endings: one where Isaiah survives and Cam signs the contract to win the Super Bowl, and another where Cam wins a championship without rituals but is still haunted by unknown entities. The film's production involved a spec script initially titled Goat, which was purchased by Monkeypaw Productions and later retitled Him.
