Back is all shock no valueWEEKLY FILM REVIEW BY SAMMIE PURCELL Bring Her Back is the latest film from horror duo Danny and Michael Philippou who took the world by storm with their film Talk to Me Much like Talk to Me Bring Her Back is quite an upsetting film with a few good performances and the Philippou brothers have a real eye for practical effects and nastiness But there s not too much going on underneath that grimy sheen It s easy to appreciate the Philippous commitment to the visceral and to the creativity of the premise of Bring Her Back But while Talk to Me is about as nasty as it gets this new film is going for something far more sentimental by its end and it doesn t earn the depth of emotion it wants to achieve Click here to read Sammie s review If you re looking for a movie that
