Name: Psychomanteum
Age: 2018
Appearance: A series of low budget short films interspersed with a rambling monologue about paranoia and fear…
Psychomanteum. Tick tock, tick tock.
“Tick tock… Tick tock”
Why are you speaking like that?
Because it’s uttered continuously throughout the monologue.
Oh, that’s annoying.
Yes, it does go on a bit but the narrator acknowledges that near the end of the film so that makes it okay. Tick tock, tick tock…
Stop it.
Sorry, I couldn’t resist.
So, the film is called Psychomanteum. What’s that when it’s at home?

Yet again the cheap, occasionally effective but utterly done to death format of the found footage film finds its way onto our screens once more. Only this time, there’s dinosaurs. It’s The T-Rex Project, or Mesozoic Activity, if you will.
We’re expected to believe we’re being presented with footage from a documentary team recording some natural historians on locations in the South American rainforest, seeking out new species. Brash cameraman James (Daniel Caren) accompanies sceptical presenter Michelle (Sarah Mac) on The Expedition. The aloof but esteemed Professor Howson (Ben Loyd-Holmes, who also co-writes with director Adam Spinks) is their guide and a couple of other scientists and explorer/adventurer types flesh out the cast.
