Send Help Movie Review: Sam Raimi, Rachel McAdams, and Dylan O’Brien Deliver a Twisted Survival Thriller

Office Politics Goes Primal: Sam Raimi’s ‘Send Help’ Starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien Hits PH Cinemas

We’ve all had bad days at the office, but Linda Liddle is having the ultimate "performance review" from hell. 20th Century Studios officially releases ‘Send Help’ in Philippine cinemas nationwide—a darkly comedic psychological thriller that asks the question: What happens when you’re stranded on a desert island with the boss you despise?

Directed by genre icon Sam Raimi (Spider-Man, Evil Dead), the film stars Oscar® nominee Rachel McAdams as Linda, a brilliant Strategy and Planning employee whose promotion was stolen by her chauvinistic "nepo baby" boss, Bradley Preston, played by Dylan O’Brien.

When a business trip to Bangkok ends in a catastrophic plane crash, the corporate ladder is replaced by a fight for survival. On a remote island, the power dynamic shifts violently. Bradley may sign the checks, but Linda has the skills to stay alive. In this twisted "Robinsonade," office etiquette is dead, and by the time the credits roll, only one of them will make it off the island alive.

A Masterclass in Suspense and Satire ‘Send Help’ marks a return to form for Sam Raimi, blending his signature "splatstick" humor with high-stakes psychological tension. With a script by Damian Shannon and Mark Swift and a haunting original score by the legendary Danny Elfman, the film keeps audiences guessing. Are you rooting for the hardworking employee or the horrible boss? In Raimi’s world, the answer changes with every twist.

Check out the trailer below.

Don’t miss the most talked-about survival thriller of the year. ‘Send Help’ is now showing in cinemas nationwide.
