Shot in mockumentary style, The Medium is an intriguing Thai horror film, that starts off as a documentary which is being made about folk magic and local forms of shamanism in the Isan region of the country.

What most don't know is that this fictional character is based on a true-life medium named Allison DuBois, who is a consultant to the show. For the past four years, DuBois has been the subject of rigorous scientific experiments conducted at the University of Arizona by Harvard-trained psychologist Gary Schwartz.
