A must watch, it was amazing!
The Medium is a mockumentary type film/folk horror, and it was fantastic. At over 2 hours long, the pacing was good. It didn't feel like it dragged at all and made use of that time well
Could be slow in parts but amazing folk horror blended with documentary/found footage style horror. Loved it!
waited very long to watch this one - did not disappoint! genuinely creepy moments - i have been on a horror binge lately and this is 1 of the several movies I've seen lately that genuinely made me feel scared/uncomfortably creeped out when i finished it!
Most people only write a review on ‘Shudder’ if they have taken the time to watch the whole movie, but there a few who feel it necessary to comment and try to discredit a film without watching the entire thing. Generally I find most films quite predictable but still entertaining, however this one was surprisingly interesting and kept me wondering what was going to happen in the conclusion.
