I have viewed many horror/supernatural/occultic/esoteric films in my lifetime and I have favourites but this is not the post for that. *Whispers*: Hereditary, Kenneth Anger's Magic Lantern Cycle, Cocteau's Blood of a Poet..

I just want to say that Talk to Me disturbed me in the right way. By right way I mean that it reminded me of some of my earlier experiences with the spiritual realm, dark chaotic and confusing. I could relate to the grief present in the film and the grief component compounded the horror of what takes place. It is one of those films I would rather not watch ever again. Some people will just find it funny or shocking or creepy at best. I find it deeply unnerving. I would recommend it for that reason - especially to up-and-coming necromancers and mediums who need to be shaken a little.
Yeah it's fun but it's also dismal. Do not watch if you're a depressive personality.
I saw this months ago in theatre but decided to comment on it now - which means it has lived rent-free in my mind.
