Michael Shanks’s ‘Together’ is one of those films where the premise instantly catches attention—a couple stuck in a strained relationship suddenly begin to physically fuse together. It sounds absurd, and in many ways, it is. But what makes the film more than just a high-concept watch is its commitment to exploring that idea with a certain honesty. There’s body horror, but it’s used in service of something far more familiar—the slow erosion of a long-term relationship. The film leans into discomfort without ever turning mean-spirited. What emerges finally is an intimate portrait of two people forced to confront the thing they’ve been avoiding.
The plot revolves around Millie (Alison Brie) and Tim (Dave Franco), a long-term couple who relocate from the city to a small rural town in the hopes of starting fresh. Millie takes up a teaching job while Tim is still hopeful he’ll carve out a music career after years of struggle. The move doesn’t do much to ease their quiet frustrations. During a hike, the two fall into a cave, where Tim drinks from a strange spring. What follows is gradual and alarming—their bodies begin to stick together. Skin and bones fuse, and the more they try to separate, the more pain they feel. As the condition worsens, they’re forced into a physical closeness that mirrors their emotional entanglement—messy, uncomfortable, and inescapable. Running alongside is the story of a mysterious neighbour who offers cryptic insight, prodding the film into folk-horror territory.
The film’s tone is a delicate balance of the grotesque and the restrained. While the visuals lean into body horror, the direction stays surprisingly understated. Shanks doesn’t overplay the sci-fi element or treat the metaphor with a heavy hand. The horror is there, but it’s grounded in character. The pacing occasionally slows, and some threads—like a vague cult subplot—feel underdeveloped, but the core idea holds steady. The film is less interested in explaining what’s happening and more focused on what it reveals about the characters’ emotional state and the realisation that whatever once bound them together is now holding them back.
Performance is key to keeping a premise like this from tipping into parody. Alison Brie brings clarity and control to Millie—a woman tired of carrying a relationship that no longer serves her. There’s anger, but also exhaustion and quiet resignation. Dave Franco plays Tim with a mix of charm and immaturity, capturing someone who’s drifted for too long and now finds himself forced to reckon with that complacency. Their dynamic is full of shared history, unspoken tension, and the kind of intimacy that’s no longer affectionate but perfunctory. Even in scenes that involve crawling, wincing, or bleeding together, there’s still a quiet, believable sadness underneath.
‘Together’ doesn’t always land cleanly. Some sequences stretch longer than needed, and the metaphor occasionally risks stating the obvious. But there’s something original and quietly thoughtful about how it approaches the subject of emotional inertia. This isn’t a film about whether love can survive—it’s about what happens when it lingers past the point of comfort. The horror is secondary to the emotional truth, and that’s where the film finds its strength. Odd as it may be, ‘Together’ manages to say something sharp about relationships—not with speeches or sentiment, but through discomfort and a strange kind of closeness.

Years into their relationship, Tim, and Millie (Dave Franco and Alison Brie) decide a change of scenery might breathe new life into their romance. Leaving behind the noise and comfort of the city, they move to the countryside with nothing but each other. Instead, they find themselves staring down at a nightmarish force that threatens not just their love, but their very bodies. Looks like bad Wi-Fi was not their only problem moving out!
The movie starts slow, taking its time to show the cracks in their relationship. Their petty frustrations, quiet resentments, and moments of longing for something more gives us a glimpse into their ‘not-so-perfect’ relationship. It’s a patient setup that pays off once the story takes its sharp, horrifying turn.

That turn comes in the form of a creepy cult whose curse forces the couple to literally merge into one body. The transformation is unsettling and grotesque, but never gratuitous. Director Michael Shanks cleverly positions the body horror as a metaphor for co-dependency and the loss of identity in a relationship, which gives the film emotional weight.
Balancing the horror is a streak of dark comedy. These moments of odd, uncomfortable humour don’t undercut the tension; instead, they make the film’s stranger beats oddly charming. This tonal juggling act keeps the audience hooked even when things get gooey.
What makes 'Together' also stand out is its visual language, warm lighting during emotional beats, contrasted with cool, moody tones in eerie sequences. The cinematography is crisp, and VFX is exceptional that gives a new dimension to the film’s storytelling. It really makes you quiver with no room to escape, figuratively.

The ending of 'Together' refuses the comfort of closure, leaving the story open-ended. But does this film warrant a sequel? That’s debatable.

Ultimately, 'Together' is a genre experiment that dares to push boundaries. Its pacing may test your patience, and its sheer weirdness makes it a likely one-time watch, but its originality and thematic depth make it unforgettable.
