Talk to Me (Full Movie)
Talk to Me is a stone cold classic of the horror genre. It feels fresh, thrilling, absorbing, and has a brilliant concept at its core.
The story follows a group of friends who play around with the occult, contacting the spirit world through a mysterious ceramic hand. As you might expect, things go off the rails quickly and insidious activity ensues.
The way the story is set up is superb, giving a fresh spin on a somewhat tired horror trope and bringing it into the 21st century with style.
It contains a strong collection of characters with great performances behind them all and solid writing that doesn’t feel cliche or tired.
Stylistically I think the film is superb, with the direction on point. There are some neat creative flourishes and a brilliant use of sound, both of which really contribute to the overall atmosphere, which is one of constant suspense and unease.
I don’t think the film is particularly scary, relying more on body horror and disturbing imagery, but it is very unnerving and tense nonetheless.
The only reason I’m not scoring this higher is that I think some of the concepts could have been taken a little further, and some of the horror dialled up a notch, but these are minor criticisms really.
Talk to Me is one of the most refreshing and engaging horror films I’ve seen in a while, and will be sure to be a treat for any horror fans out there.
