Talk To Me Is Almost the Perfect Horror Franchise Starter
violent. In those moments, you watch it and feel like maybe, just maybe, you’re watching one of the next great. The potential is that strong. However, as the film goes on, its tight, tense, clever premise gets a little murky and the third act can’t meet the intensity of all that came before it. Nevertheless, if you’re a fan of horror, there’s more to like than not.
Mia is a young teenager with a complicated family life. She lost her mom under curious circumstances, doesn’t talk to her dad much, and spends most of her time with her best friend Jade , Jade’s brother Riley , and their mom, Sue . One night, Mia and the siblings go to a party hoping to try out this new viral sensation all their friends are posting about. You grab this weird, creepy, disembodied hand, and it lets a random spirit into your body.
That crucial incident and everything leading up to it are the film’s highlights, but unfortunately, things never quite get back to that level. For the rest of the film, the rules and logic behind the game get a little muddy as the spirits begin to show up in other places besides parties and during rituals. And while the movie never does these things for no reason or without explanation, once there the rules get thrown out and the scares are more random, much of the innovation and fun is lost.
