Tarot: Tödliche Prophezeiung

This movie is just ok and its another movie about college kids dying in strange ways. It is pretty predictable movie plot and especially after the girl does the tarot reading you basically know what is going to happen to each of them.

It has a few jump scares and the tarot card lady is creepy looking and over all product value wasn't too bad.

Jacob Batalon provides a few laughs but a lot of laughs do not land and are pretty cringed but then again I think that how his character was written.

Most of the college kids are throw away character and don't really get much back story on them.

Pacing is good and has a tried a true run time of hour and half which works well for most horror movies.

I would recommend this movie if you like horror movies.

Its not as bad as the reviews and ratings suggest. Its perfectly wachable and entertaining enough for a one time watch. What it lacks is originality. If you have watched a few young adult /teen horrors with supernatural elements, this movie will feel very predictable. But it will not bore you if you like such movies. Just don't watch expecting anything new or ground breaking. Acting could also have been improved in some places. Visual effects were good. With a better & more original story, this could have been quite popular but it is what it is. Watch it if you are okay with predictable but entertaining horror movie, ignore if you are looking for a deep / original / masterpiece writing.

This is a really good example of why so many people don't like horror.

A group of pretty teens unwittingly get themselves caught up in some supernatural shenanigans and become canon fodder for some demonic entity.

There's a raft of jump scares (though I use to word 'scare' lightly) and each of those is accompanied by jarring sound effects almost as if the director doesn't trust that he can even make you jump. There's a bit of middle of the road CGI and a personal bug bear of mine, an accessible expert on hand who can explain in great detail exactly what is going on. Then dies.

It's just a really shallow, cursed object, jump scare marathon with cliche characters and annoying exposition and there are loads of movies just like this.

Tarot is a very predictable, silly and cliche ridden horror film. The dialogue is screamingly ridiculous and the characters are more cardboard than the cards themselves. This film has very few, if any, redeeming features and as the well trodden story unfolds (complete with absurd, lazy and unsubtle back story), it's very hard to stay awake. The writing and direction are laughable and the actors are clearly stifled by a terrible script. But the deeply annoying, often completely inappropriate music that drones on throughout ensures that a second viewing is definitely not on the cards! Not recommended.

I don't pretend to be clever enough to fully understand AI, but I believe creation by AI involves a trawl though the interweb to find out what's been successful before, and to fuse these elements into a narrative framework - also based on what's worked in the past.

In other words, string a load of cliches together and hope for the best. I'm not saying this film was written (and directed) by AI, but it might just as well have been.

And here we are. Group of kids (yup) creepy house (yup) strange artifact (yup) Are you sure this is a good idea? (yup) oh dear, we've been cursed (yup) death is stalking us all (yup) let's split up (yup) gruesome deaths (yup) elderly sage who knows the back-story (yup) the only way to survive is to do this (yup) enough twists to make it interesting...

Well no. On the last point we get a resounding nope. This is dreary, predictable, formulaic and dull. Not even the jump-scares work. None of the cast are talented enough to make a bland script sound good; everyone else involved was either out of their depth or on autopilot.
