Touch Me is Addison Heimann’s 2025 horror-comedy and science-fiction feature about two codependent friends drawn to an alien whose touch promises relief from anxiety and depression. The premise turns that offer of comfort into a story about dependency, trauma, and danger. U.S. streaming and rental listings appeared in 2026, but availability depends on location and can change.
What is Touch Me (2025) about?
Joey and Craig are codependent best friends whose home becomes uninhabitable. When Joey’s ex, Brian, returns, he offers a seemingly extraordinary solution: he is an alien whose touch is said to relieve anxiety and depression. Joey and Craig travel to his compound in search of healing, but the promise of relief gives way to a dangerous situation.
The healing claim is part of the film’s fictional premise, not a real mental-health treatment. The story’s central tension is the pull of promised happiness against the risks of dependence and surrendering personal boundaries. Distributor Yellow Veil Pictures describes the film as a psychosexual horror-comedy.
Who made it, and who stars in it?
Addison Heimann wrote and directed this 2025 U.S. English-language feature. Yellow Veil Pictures lists Olivia Taylor Dudley, Lou Taylor Pucci, and Jordan Gavaris among the leads; WTFilms also lists Marlene Forte and Paget Brewster. WTFilms names Rustic Films and Glowing Tree Films as production companies.
Yellow Veil Pictures gives the runtime as 100 minutes. The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) lists its home-entertainment version at 99 minutes 27 seconds. Those figures refer to different source listings and versions; the small difference does not by itself indicate a substantive conflict.

Rotten Tomatoes lists a limited U.S. theatrical release on March 20, 2026, and a streaming release on April 7, 2026. Its watch guide lists AMC+ for streaming and Fandango for rental or purchase.

Is Touch Me scary, and what have critics said?
Its horror and psychosexual material may be unsettling, particularly for viewers sensitive to graphic injury, sexual content, or the difficult subjects in the BBFC guidance. It also mixes comedy and science fiction with its horror elements, so it is not simply a conventional scare-focused film.
