Send Help 2026

Sam Raimi returns to form in this delightfully unhinged survival horror comedy

Our Take (by Isabella Endrinal)

Warning: this film is incredibly gory, terribly gruesome, and horrendously disgusting. We urge you to go in without any food. However, if you do have a strong stomach, Send Help is such a fun ride. Flipping the corporate dynamic through an island survival tale, Send Help gleefully toys with the nature of power, as the new environment proves who truly has the capability, smarts, and guts to survive. It certainly brought out another side to Rachel McAdams, whose previous polished roles make her unkempt Linda rather unexpected, but she thrives in her character, totally transforming from awkward office worker to self-reliant final girl with a dark twist. Send Help isn’t afraid to get nasty, especially at the expense of a workplace bully.

Notable Critics

"There’s a satisfying objectivity to the film, and both Linda and Bradley make for authentic and unapologetic products of their professional and personal lives before the crash."

— David Jenkins

"Raimi indulges Send Help’s gore and gross-out moments with the zest of someone returning to his cult-favorite roots."

— Alison Willmore

Synopsis

Two colleagues become stranded on a deserted island, the only survivors of a plane crash. On the island, they must overcome past grievances and work together to survive, but ultimately, it's a battle of wills and wits to make it out alive.
