Stephen King presents his three-sentence critique of ‘Together.’
Stephen King likes to share his thoughts on social media, often discussing his feelings about various topics, including horror movies, particularly those inspired by his own stories. His latest recommendation? Writer/director Michael Shanks’ *Together*, a body horror film about a couple (real-life couple Dave Franco and Alison Brie) who find themselves literally stuck to one another.
“Dave Franco and Alison Brie are great—and brave—in *TOGETHER*,” King shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday. “Horror movies work when you care about the people. This one works.”
It’s interesting to note that Kristy Puchko offered a nuanced view of the film. In her review, she mentioned, “To the credit of Shanks, what he has scripted is a compelling tale of co-dependency with a mix of the occult and body horror. *Together* is a wickedly entertaining movie. But watching it in the wake of *The Substance*, *Sinners*, *Bring Her Back*, and *28 Years Later*, it’s not a winner, but an also-ran.”
*Together* is currently showing in theaters.
