What to Know

Critics Consensus

Putting director Sam Raimi's penchant for diabolical mayhem to great use, Send Help doesn't need any assistance in thrills thanks to a very game Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien along with a viciously clever script.

Audience Says

Rachel McAdams is Linda Liddle in Send Help, a Raimi-delivered, unhinged survival horror thriller that keeps you guessing and laughing -- and you best don’t confuse her kindness for weakness.

The moral to the story? Don’t disrespect, ridicule, or look down on the Linda Liddle’s of the world. They’ll only take so much and, when they finally decide to fight back, there will be justified hell to pay. Go to Full Review

Send Help isn't after awards or pomp. It's after adrenaline, unsettling laughter, and a brutal inversion of hierarchies. And it succeeds. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

It's the kind of campy, funny horror we come to love from Sam Raimi, and it's one of his very best movies. Go to Full Review
