Crazy Creepy Trailer For The Thai-Korean Horror Film THE MEDIUM
I’ve got a scary trailer here for a crazy-looking horror thriller from Thailand and South Korea titled The Medium. The story is based on the supernatural legends of the cultures and it follows a Southeast Asian shamanism who goes insane. I’m always up for an insane horror movie that plays around with different and unique themes and settings, and this looks like the kind of horror film I’d enjoy watching.
The Medium follows a “documentary film crew tagging along with Nim (Sawanee Utoomma), a Thai shaman, as she travels to her ancestral homeland in the northeastern Isan region of Thailand. There, the team encounters Ming (Narilya Gulmongkolpech), Nim’s niece, who shows strange symptoms that seem to suggest she has inherited the shaman’s gift. The team decides to follow Mink, hoping to capture the shaman lineage passing between generations, but her bizarre behavior soon becomes increasingly extreme.”
The movie is directed by Thai horror filmmaker Banjong Pisanthanakun, best known internationally for his 2004 directorial debut Shutter. It was produced by Korea’s Na Hong-jin, who previously developed The Wailing, Yellow Sea and The Chaser.
Shudder will release The Medium in North America, the U.K. and Australia/New Zealand on October 14th.
