The Summoned

About This Movie

The Summoned dives into the fractured relationship between two brothers, Omid and Emad, set against a backdrop of grief and familial discord.

The film shifts into darker territory when Emad, desperate and on the brink of financial ruin, turns to Omid for help. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the atmosphere of dread to build as Emad's mental state deteriorates. There's a subtle layering of horror that creeps in, merging with the drama and crime elements. The practical effects used in certain key scenes add a gritty realism, enhancing the film's unsettling tone.
