Talk to Me is a horror film that really earns that title because it is truly disturbing and uncomfortable viewing in the most effective ways. A terrifying film that pulls no punches and uses its gore to horrifying effect. It feels like the millionth horror about grief and trauma but it's also a really good exploration of the lack of real connection in the social media age.

Sophie Wilde is incredible, its a performance that requires so much emotionally and she performs every moment in a way that feels so genuine. On the opposite side, she's also excellent at conveying the addictive yet uncomfortable out of body experience of being possessed. Each one feels completely different.

From the brutal opening sequence Danny and Michael Philippou prove themselves to be naturals at building suspense and creating violent imagery designed to linger long after the credits. Any uncomfortable self inflicted injury is made worse by Emma Bortignon's sound design, just as painful to hear as it is to watch.
