‘Talk to Me‘, featuring Sophie Wilde, delves into the terrifying consequences of meddling with supernatural forces. It presents bone-chilling horror with just a hint of gore.
The film revolves around young social media addicts who stumble upon a hand sculpture that connects the real world to the spirit realm. To summon a spirit, one must hold the hand and say “Talk to me,” and to allow the spirit to take over, they must say “I let you in.” However, they only have 90 seconds to communicate before being taken over. The story follows Mia, who recently lost her mother, confiding in her best friend Jade and forming a close bond with her brother Riley. As they engage in this supernatural experiment, things take a dark turn, and they must grapple with the consequences.

The Best Part:
The best part of the film lies in the brilliant performance by Sophie Wilde, who keeps viewers on the edge of their seats with every scene. The horror is intensified by the modern touch, as the characters are influenced by the virality of their actions on Snapchat. The movie maintains a smooth and captivating storyline, leaving some powerful impressions despite the scares. The background score adds to the spooky atmosphere, and the gore scenes are sure to provoke strong reactions. “Talk to Me” is a crisp, terrifying, and slightly violent offering from the Philippou brothers.
Shortcomings:
However, the movie has its shortcomings, particularly in some areas of the writing, which may come across as clumsy and leave some loopholes and unexplained elements. Although engaging, the horror is not as memorable as other iconic films like “The Conjuring” or “Sinister.”
In terms of performances, Sophie Wilde and Joe Bird shine throughout the film, with Joe’s portrayal of the possessed human leaving a lasting impact, especially in the hospital scenes.
