I don't have a brother
7 September 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Jake (Judson Vaughan) a gifted attorney and Laura (Jasmyn Banks) live in the home of her deceased parents. Her mother (Julie T. Wallace) was diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome, which is genetic. Laura has visions and believes the house to be haunted by her mother. What better thing to do than to invite a few friends over with a blind spiritualist (Caroline Burns Cooke) and have a seance? The seance is when the film picks up and unfortunately it was half over by then. Events happen in rapid succession after that with the audience only seeing half of what is happening. Things are then revealed quickly, not allowing the audience to fully digest it before giving them something else.

The twist has been done before. I thought the script clever, the clues are in meaningless lines that would take a second viewing.

The film was funded from a web site offering incentives for cash donations (free DVD, honorable mention, etc.) I don't feel most of the audience appreciates writer/director Carl Medland's efforts in this feature and wasn't until I started remembering things in the film that I appreciated it. Carl Medland's other film "The Cost of Love" deals with a homosexual and for some reason he felt he needed to have a homosexual couple in this film.

Guide: F-word. Near sex. No nudity.
