20 Best Horror Movie Kills of 2025
6. Andy - Bring Her Back
Danny and Michael Philippou's astonishing follow-up to their debut Talk to Me sees two step-siblings, Andy (Billy Barratt) and Piper (Sora Wong), face off against their unhinged foster mother Laura (a brilliant Sally Hawkins), who intends to use the pair as part of an occult ritual to resurrect her late biological daughter.
While most likely assumed that Andy and Piper would eventually triumph over Laura, that's not quite how the story goes.
In the third act, Andy finally convinces social worker Wendy (Sally-Anne Upton) to visit the house, and once she sees first-hand what fresh hell is going on, she attempts to flee with Andy in tow. However, at this moment, Laura hits the pair with her car, instantly killing Wendy and leaving Andy gravely wounded.
There still seems to be a little hope for Andy, then, until Laura walks over and drowns him in a puddle, the Philippous devastatingly lingering on Andy as he's helplessly shoved underwater and unable to affect his fate.
It's an absolutely horrifying, heartbreaking ending for him, but at least Piper manages to avoid the same fate and escape Laura's clutches.
