Bring Her Back has now crossed an important milestone by pushing A24’s horror line-up into safer ground after a shaky few months. The studio had faced a rough patch at the end of 2024 and continued stumbling into early 2025 after titles like Y2K and The Front Room fell flat with both critics and audiences.
Both Opus and Death of a Unicorn followed in March and were filled with familiar streaming stars, but unfortunately, the results were underwhelming. Opus collected a weak $2.1 million globally, and Death of a Unicorn stalled at $16 million. That’s where Bring Her Back comes in, carrying a different kind of weight.
Bring Her Back Movie Plot and Cast
The film follows two siblings who are sent to live with a foster mother after losing their father. The movie, which is directed by Danny and Michael Philippou, the same brothers behind 2023’s Talk to Me, stays rooted in emotional horror.

Sally Hawkins leads the cast with a chilling but restrained performance, supported by Billy Barratt, Jonah Wren Phillips, Sora Wong, and Mischa Heywood. The film blends family trauma with eerie visuals and gradually builds a story that’s both tragic and haunting.
