TALK ABOUT preparation. Before Danny and Michael Philippou set out to make their feature debut Talk To Me, they took a trip to Rhode Island to the family home made famous in The Conjuring. "We also got haunted dolls from all over the world and brought them to the house and did a sleepover," grins Michael. "If you bring haunted dolls to the world's most haunted house surely something haunted happens!" Adds twin brother Danny: "We chase it so much. Every country that we go to, we always try to stay in the most haunted location!"
All this paranormal activity clearly fed into Talk To Me, a supernatural tale in which Aussie teens learn how to commune with the dead. To reach the other side, all anyone need do is grip a small plaster-cast of a hand - said to be the severed, embalmed hand of a psychic. "We were wondering what the [haunted] object could be," notes Michael. "And we didn't want it to be things that have been done before. The film was all about connections - real and false. The hand is like a physical representation of the themes of the film."
