‘Together’ Review: Dave Franco and Alison Brie Are a Couple Falling Apart (and Fusing) in a Loony-Tunes Bash About the Body Horror of Love


Michael Shanks' movie is megaplex-ready, but it's a loony-tunes horror film with something on its mind.

So the two are making a change, pulling up stakes from the city and moving to a town in the countryside, where she has landed a teaching gig, and he’s going to diddle with his music and then leave for a while to go on tour with his buddies’ band. Here, that theory is put forth by Jamie, Millie’s new teacher coilleague, played by Damnon Herriman with a friendly sharp-edged ambiguity that makes us think, “What’s up with him?” Let’s just say has to do with a very creepy smiling cult. I’m making “Together” sound like a reasonably serious horror film, but rest assured: There are plenty of scenes that are just there so the audience can scream with laughter, as they watch Tim and Millie have sex in a restroom and get stuck together you-know-where (they’re able to uncouple), or to manage their ordeal by using duct tape and a reciprocating saw.
