While big titles like Sinners and Weapons dominated the conversation, Bring Her Back and Keeper deserve a closer look. We start with Bring Her Back, an Australian supernatural folk horror film from the directors of Talk To Me, Danny and Michael Philippou. The story follows two siblings placed into foster care after a traumatic loss, only to discover that their new home is shaped by grief, obsession, and dark occult practices. We discuss the disturbing atmosphere, the unsettling character of Ollie, and the way the film uses emotional trauma to drive its horror. We then move on to Keeper, directed by Osgood Perkins and starring Tatiana Maslany and Rossif Sutherland. What begins as a quiet anniversary getaway slowly turns into something far more disturbing. The film leans into slow tension, isolation, and ritual rather than jump scares. We talk about its eerie tone, divided audience reactions, and why it stands out from more conventional horror films. Both films explore grief, control, and the danger of crossing lines that should never be crossed. If you enjoy slow-burning horror, folk horror, and psychological tension, this episode is for you.
