It's so frustrating because this is a terrific psychological horror that uses great sound design to its fullest for most of the runtime, but as with many other frontloaded productions, it can be difficult to match a great buildup with an equally decent ending, and it shows here.
The classic setting of a one-location chamber piece works its charm here, as we see two strangers stranded in a remote cable, each seemingly with secrets of their own. Thunder, rain, creaking of the wooden floor, it's such a hair-raising experience sitting through this claustrophobic, sonic two-man show. It plays out its cards nicely, building suspense and mystery with great curiosity and countless possibilities.
Unfortunately, the filmmakers opted for one of the most basic, predictable routes of this type of horror and tried to add pointless adlibs to it. It's a shame this didn't close out nicely for me, but I can easily see the great perspectives for the Australian directing duo.
From a technical standpoint, this is a truly impressive central indie horror that traps you in its single-location situation and highly claustrophobic mood. For the first hour, I was absolutely absorbed in its psychological study, never knowing what each character's true intentions were or where the narrative would lead. Plenty of eerie moments, as well as great sombre images. It's simply a shame they chose the most predictable and uninteresting climax. A film with a terrific set-up but a profoundly unsatisfactory final act that took zero risks.
Atmospheric; claustrophobic; constrained; creepy; slow-burning; talky; two-hander; unsatisfying; well-crafted.
Alright this was actually a lot better than I was expecting. It’s the definition of slow burn, really ramping up the stakes and tension, but the pay off is worth it. The vibes are so spooky too, really eerie and uncomfortable, so much rain, RAIN RAIN RAIN, so much so that I’m gonna add it to my RAIN ON ME movie list
You will never find another me. Not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing, but it’s the truth.
Great gripping build up, unfortunately unsatisfactory ending.
Score : 9/10 ✅
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. I freaking loved it.
Exactly my type of psychological horror. Talkative, heavy, slow and utterly suspicious.
The shifting definition of who’s in charge or who’s tricking who is masterfully well-directed here. Sharp dialogues, great use of practical lighting, and a roof that leaks crackling sounds with a constant background noise of turbulent rain that becomes a participant in this confined trailer park are all the reasons why this indie horror got elevated to an interesting level of helplessness.
Constant tension is a big win in my book and I’ll be one of the few to declare the final act great. Hurriedly confrontational.
Josiah Allen and Indianna Bell can (and should) be proud of their first feature film. A strong personal achievement. A++ for the excellent script and the amazing sound design.
God, it would be absolutely fantastic if these Shudder films with absolutely brilliant performances and premises could figure out how to, I don't know... end their movies.
"Strange, isn't it?"
Contrary to everyone else in our group except for Rob (who may or may not have dozed off; yarb definitely did), I had a pretty good time with this Australian horror flick courtesy of directors Josiah Allen (who also edited) and Indianna Bell (she wrote the script)! I don't know, I was into the atmosphere, the performances, the sound design, the way it reminded me of the Twilight Zone episode "Nothing in the Dark," just the overall sense of dread from start to finish. It's all about the VIBES, man... blame it on the rain.
"You knocked on the wrong door."

SO. MUCH. ATMOSPHERE.
I was not even prepared for the almost suffocating creepiness of this! Set entirely inside a musty old trailer which sounds terrifying by itself, but the nonstop thunderstorm and eerie soundtrack really make this one a fun ride!
A girl knocks on a guys trailer and asks for a lift and the whole time you never really can tell who is in trouble because they both are kinda off and I really liked that. The two leads give amazing performances and the ending is nice and dark so if that’s your thing, watch this asap! This was an unexpected surprise that I might never have paid attention to had someone not suggested I watch it!
A somewhat effective yet ultimately unfulfilling indie horror flick. It introduces intriguing concepts, establishes a tense atmosphere, and mostly keeps you guessing, but its conclusion falls short of leaving a lasting impact. You'll Never Find Me takes a minimalist approach to storytelling, reminiscent of the beginning of Barbarian, but once it ventures into surreal territory, I lost interest. While I appreciate movies with crazy twists and a minimalist style, this one didn't quite hit the mark for me. It feels like they were trying too hard towards the end and could have explored a more intriguing direction. I'm not certain what that direction might entail, but I believe the payoff didn't match the buildup that preceded it. Despite some strong moments and solid cinematography, You'll Never Find Me doesn't quite add up to a recommendation.
A slow paced psychological thriller that keeps you on the edge with simply a dialogue alone. This is one that needs all attention.
