The Medium

Rural Thailand, monsoon dusk, a single lit candle gutters on a family altar. A shaman’s household discovers their ancestral spirit may inhabit one of them, only to watch the candle snuff itself and the mirrors weep black oil. A folk-horror cousin to Jenkins’ The Babadook, minus the therapy jargon.
