We have been spoiled with new Horror this year, and this week brings us another dose of Aussie Insanity thanks to Bring Her Back (2025) from Michael & Danny Philippou, the deranged duo that gave us Talk To Me (2023).
Starring Sally Hawkins (The Shape of Water) in a brilliantly unhinged performance, Bring Her Back is another dose of doom, a trip down trauma lane, and a further reminder that nobody knows how to get under your skin and push you out of your comfort zone better the Australians. We caught Bring Her Back at an early preview screening, and we wanted to share our thoughts on 2025’s newest shocker. Want to hear how we think this stacks up to Talk To Me? Curious about the scene that made our entire theatre scream in disgust?? Dying to find out if Kim covered her eyes through half of this dang movie??? Join ussssss…
LISTEN NOW AT THE NOFS FIEND CLUB ON PATREON
Note: Drive Home from the Drive-in reviews are FULL SPOILERS (with a quick 5-or-so minute spoiler free review at the top of the show). Want to know whether to watch or pass without the spoil?
Verdict: If you love hearing an audience squirm at some gory gross-out gags and some NSFL practical effects, Bring Her Home is a must see. Sally Hawkins delivers one of the best performances of the year, and you know you’re in for a f*cked up time when there’s a new Horror flick from some Australian directors. 💀
