Catherine Bray of The Guardian gave the movie three out of five stars, while Murtada Elfadl of Variety considered that Touch Me was not a fully realized movie.

    "We'd deny it if asked, but the truth is that we're all looking for our own version of tentacle sex that cures our trauma, so none of us have any room to question Addison Heimann's path to work through his own." My thoughts on TOUCH ME. www.slashfilm.com/1831714/why-...

    TOUCH ME: The horniest movie at #Sundance. A bruised and beastly exploration of our messiest emotions that gets “Hentai alien” weird. Addison Heimann’s fearless filmmaking turns Japanese “Pink” influences into a unique orgy of raw expressionist thrills. Sexy, gonzo, and uncommon. Loved it. 🖤

    That's the thing. It was just a string of jokes in the early 90s Did you see the movie Singles, with the band Citizen Dick, and their hit single "Touch Me, I'm Dick" The entire early '90s was this dumb, the culture was this dumb Also would you like some hallucinogenic jam?

    Watched TOUCH ME, the new dark comedy/horror movie about sex with aliens, tentacle porn, anxiety management, codependent relationships, and abusive partners. It's kinda all over the place, but I liked it. I think? Could've been sexier, though. The tentacles looked too much like bratwursts.

    Touch Me (2025) This movie is a lot of things, but predictable isn't one of them. Shifts back and forth from silly sexy sci-fi horror to trauma-triggering themes of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse in a truly jarring way. Incredibly dark humor, I'd be careful who I recommend this to. 6.75/10
