I honestly believed 'Talk to Me' was going to be just another possession movie. But this Australian possession horror is so fresh and unique, it is an entirely new twist on the genre.

In a way, its also a new take on the Ouija board game. Instead of the board game, they have an eerie embalmed hand, which apparently is a real hand. No-one knows exactly where the hand comes from, but there's speculation it was the hand of a medium who could communicate with the dead.

Now youngsters play a dangerous game of "Touch the Hand". The 'player' holds the hand and then says "Talk to Me", upon which they are able to see a spirit, or ghost. When they then say "I let you in", the spirit temporarily possesses the player. Only, the possession should not last more than 90 seconds, after which the player must let go of the hand.

Having seen such a possession video clip on their social group chat, Mia (Sophie Wilde) and Jade (Alexandra Jensen) decide to go see for themselves whether it is real. Jade's 14-year old brother, Riley (Joe Bird) tags along.

At the party, Mia decides to go first. She goes over 90 seconds before breaking the connection, after which she is ecstatic, saying it was "awesome". During the film's first few moments, the boisterous youngsters are shown having fun playing the game, but things soon spin out of control for them, endangering their very lives.

'Talk to Me' is the type of film that grabs you, and doesn't let go. The viewer is glued to the screen, craving more, eagerly anticipating the next step - and the next reveal. The film has an amazing script, with stellar performances by an excellent cast - especially Olivia Wilde and Joe Bird. I actually never expected the film to be this disturbing on so many levels. It goes well beyond the possession element.

'Talk to Me' plays with the viewers emotions in an unsympathetic way. It is cruel and relentless, but incredibly realistic with relatable characters. I don't think I've ever seen such a disturbing AND emotional possession movie. 'The Exorcism of Emily Rose' has been my favourite possession movie since seeing it for the first time back in 2005, and 'Talk to Me' now also rate among my favourites in the genre.
