_Talk to Me_ is a brilliant and spine tingling evolution of _The Monkey’s Paw_ short story with an incredibly satisfying ending and a scene stealing performance from Sophie Wilde. Aaron McLisky’s cinematography featuring a ghoulish incline at just the right time makes _Talk to Me_, which is already a well-written nightmare and unique plunge into personal hell, visually and uniquely chilling. **...

This film didn't last 5min (I usually give a film 10min). There is a line and in film with dirty jokes and violence like chopping heads off there is a right and a wrong way of doing it.
