Despite the positive reviews and the fair theatrical run, Companion is already out on digital platforms and is snowballing into one of 2025's horror greats. Led by Yellowjackets star Sophie Thatcher, who also recently appeared in the acclaimed horror movie Heretic, Companion premiered theatrically on January 31, 2025.
The movie has a lot of brilliant elements that make it one of the most electrifying sci-fi horrors in recent years. This includes some top-notch performances from the leading pair of Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid, great scriptwriting and cinematography, and a good emphasis on sound.
The music department is helmed by Hrishikesh Hirway, who is best known for his compositions in Netflix's Everything Sucks! and Save the Date. He is also renowned for his four albums that he released under the name The One AM Radio.
