A challenge for your readers: Predict the ending of “Send Help.” Who wins? The brave brilliant heroine? Or the wealthy, entitled, smug, mediocre, sniveling man? {Those are the critics’ descriptions.} Does she beat him up, reform him to a fellow feminist, or both? Critics love its unique “juicy table-turning power dynamics.” Is it a woman’s power fantasy, like every other modern horror film? Summary:
Boss Bradley mistreats Linda Liddell {subtle, ‘Linda Little’}, unjustly promoting a frat bro instead of her. Their plane crashes on a trip to Bangkok, stranding the pair on a deserted island. Tensions rise as they desperately struggle to survive.
