In 2023, directors Danny and Michael Phillipou conjured up one of the year’s best horror films with their debut Talk to Me. Now, they’re back to terrify us all over again with their second film, Bring Her Back.
Bring Her Back stars Sally Hawkins as Laura, a new foster mom to siblings Andy (Billy Barratt) and Piper (Sora Wong). The pair hope to find stability and a happy home with Laura, but instead, they find something more sinister.
As the trailer above reveals, Laura lost her young daughter Cathy (Mischa Heywood). Still reeling from grief, she claims that she never truly found a way to cope with Cathy being gone. Instead, she watches home videos of Cathy and seems to believe that there’s a way to “bring her back.”
What exactly that process is remains to be seen, but we’re guessing it has something to do with Oliver (Jonah Wren Phillips), another orphan under Laura’s care. The trailer shows him convulsing, bloody, on the ground, with some unknown force crawling under his skin. Whatever’s happening to him and Laura, it’s bad news.
While the trailer of Bring Her Back cooks up scares galore, it also highlights the role grief will play in the film, similarly to Mia’s (Sophie Wilde) attempts to reconnect with her mother in Talk to Me. Expect to be frightened, yes, but likely devastated as well.
Bring Her Back hits theaters May 30.
