Medium (2007)
6/10
A Decent First Film
8 May 2020
This is a very apparent low-budget film, however the directors and cast worked well with what they had. A story about two brothers, William and Jobe, who visit their medium aunt to help her move, it becomes quite suspenseful as the film progresses. The film uses classic horror techniques -- other worldly interference with technology, a door to another realm, etc. The two brothers become connected to the other "beings" in the house after their aunt has a heart attack, thus unleashing these beings into the real world and messing with William and Jobe's minds. Jobe is mute, most likely from an early childhood trauma stemming from supernatural events in his aunt's house. He also possesses the same skills as his aunt, and we see from the very beginning of the film that he senses the other beings in the house.

Overall, a decent first film from the Gaudioso Twins, and after seeing their more recent films, I can see the improvement they've made over the years. Nevertheless, Medium is a good start to their career and shows that they have always been passionate about film and storytelling!
