After a series of unfortunate events leaves their house uninhabitable and reeking of poo, two co-dependent friends, Joey and Craig, find themselves homeless and out of options. That's when Joey's mysterious ex resurfaces. He wants her back. Along with being hot, Brian also happens to be an alien whose touch makes anxiety and depression disappear. The two venture to his compound for the weekend with the hope of being healed from past traumas, but underneath Brian’s veneer of healing is a sinister plot filled with murder, mayhem, and blood. TOUCH ME is a psychosexual horror-comedy about the nature of co-dependent friendships and how far we are willing to go for a slice of happiness.

Bloody Disgusting

Heimann has a lot on his mind with his sophomore feature and neatly condenses it all into a quirky, eccentric psychosexual camp odyssey unlike any other.

Rated: 3.5/5

“Touch Me” often does lose its way, but it also has a visual flair and a carnal power within an immersive world that doesn’t waver.

Eye for Film

It’s the situation that delivers the strangeness – and charm – mediated by Dudley’s performance as a woman who is self-deprecating and messy but lively enough to root for.

Rated: 4/5

Cody Dericks

Next Best Picture

What prevents “Touch Me” from totally coming together is the way in which it revels in nonsensical absurdities, seemingly only to upend the audience’s expectations rather than actually adding anything substantive to the film.

Rated: 4/10

Pop Culture Reviews

Heimann’s intoxicating, psychosexual sci-fi horror film is a lot of things. It’s frenetic, campy, and fun, with a whole lot of style drawing from 60-70s Japanese cinema in between.

Rated: 3.5/5

Norman Gidney

HorrorBuzz

Vacillates from rom-com, to horror, to farce, to coming of age, and so forth. Heimann writes a silly hodgepodge of notions exploring loyalty, identity, ageism, and sexuality to breezy effect.

Rated: 7/10
