Fresh off the thrills and spills of the first movie, director/co-writer Taweewat and gang return with another installment of gross-out scares influenced by the great maestro of the macabre, Sam Raimi. This time, the mood is darker, grittier and more action-packed, echoing the same sentiments of the “Evil Dead” series that became a cult classic throughout the years.

The hauntings start in 1854, in a field of death and decay playing host to a grueling battle where a soldier, Puang (Yasaka Chaisorn) lies dying minutes before death in the form a bayonet swings towards his throat. Strangely enough, his life is saved by a hideous witch-like creature that emerges from the ground like Sadako (Manita Chobchue in a dedicated makeup-heavy role), and she promises to absolve him if he allows her to place her severed tongue into his throat...

In 2004, Banjong Pisanthanakun and then-collaborator Parkpoom Wongpoom kickstarted their directorial careers with “Shutter,” a supernatural thriller so effective it’s been remade (albeit to lesser effect) abroad three times to date. Less likely to translate that widely is Pisanthanakun’s latest solo effort, “The Medium.” Marking his return to straight horror after a couple romances and one more comedically slanted genre film (“Pee Mak”), this demonic possession saga is too thoroughly Thai in milieu and details to risk being just another derivative of “The Exorcist.”
Still, cultural specificity only brings so much freshness to an overlong tale that ultimately trades in too many familiar tropes, from the victim’s evil-grinning, black-gunk-spewing
hijinks to the deployment of a found-footage construct a la “Blair Witch.” There are perhaps too many ideas here, few of them novel, and none scary enough to keep these two-hours-plus taut. A watchable mixed bag that’s already been successful on home turf,...
