In Bring Her Back (2025), the directors of Talk To Me return with a haunting foster horror soaked in grief, guardianship, and spiritual misfires. Sally Hawkins delivers an eerie, layered performance in a film that doesn’t always explain itself, but always knows how it wants you to feel.
Monster Island (2024) is a WWII survival horror film steeped in Malay folklore, where a Japanese soldier and British POW battle inner demons and an ancient monster.
