Talk to Me
Hailing from Australia and directed by two popular YouTubers who have made a name for themselves creating some devilishly enjoyable horror videos with a very wicked sense of humour, Talk to Me will appeal to those of you who enjoy the kind of raw and undi-luted horr-or that will make you wretch and squirm in your seat.
Yes, it’s low budget and somewhat rough around the edges, but twin brothers and directors Danny and Michael Philippou have crafted an intense and visually provocative horror flick that’s sure to get your attention, and may very well stand out as this year's surprise horror hit we weren’t expecting.
The plot is simple, a group of disenchanted and disillusioned teenagers come into the possession of a spooky ceramic hand, thought to be an embalmed, severed limb of a talented medium. Attending creepy possession parties, the group take turns at using the hand to contact the dead; that is, until they take things too far.
With some shocking visuals, great performances from the young cast and a story that’ll keep you gripped until the very end, Talk to Me is well worth a go this weekend if you fancy an alternative to the usual summer blockbusters out at the moment.

But just how the production team plan to swap Cavill for Hemsworth remains a mystery, and rest assured there’s enough source material in Andrzej Sapkowski series of novels to ensure The Witcher will run for quite some time.
Just strap yourself in, and prepare for a wild ride with this one!
