La posesión

Witchboard III: The Possession (1995) is a movie I recently watched on YouTube. The storyline follows a man who uses a Ouija board to get fame and fortune. He starts changing and people around him start dying. His wife will try to do everything possible to get her husband back...

This movie is directed by Peter Svatek (Theatre of Life) and stars David Nerman (Arrival II), Elizabeth Lambert (Class of Nuke 'em High), Cedric Smith (Heavy Metal) and Richard Zeman (The Day After Tomorrow).

This is a movie that starts better than it finishes. The opening sequence when they are "checking if he's dead" and debt collection scene are great. Unfortunately all of the special effects at the end are terrible. There's a levitation scene in this you can't help but laugh at. The acting and writing are pretty bad beginning to end.

Overall this is a below average addition to the horror genre that I would score a 3.5/10 and recommend skipping.

Witchboard III wouldn't have been my first pick in the series, but I still see it as a decent horror picture. No, it's not scary and the special effects are lame, but I don't know, this film still delivers in some fashion. It's about a couple that move into an apartment and the husband soon connects with their land lord and the land lord introduces the husband into the ouija board. From there, the land lord gives Brian, the husband, a ring jumps off of his balcony, just before doing so he states "see ya in the funny papers kid." Brian then pursues use of the ouija board and from there everything seemingly falls apart with his marriage life.

Not a real high body count and like I said before, the special effects aren't ones to get excited about. I kind of liked the script and acting between the husband and wife.

Now if you have not seen any of the rest of the Witchboard films, then I recommend that you start with the original, which is by far the best of the series. 5/10

Slightly better sequel finds a man possessed by a demon after getting a ring from an elderly neighbor. His wife now must do battle with the demon in order to save her husband and to stop the demon from killing everyone in it's path. Decent special effects, some original killings, a few sexy moments make this watchable, but the film is bland and nothing special.

Rated R; Nudity, Strong Sexual Content, Violence, and Profanity.

Do NOT listen to the other two reviews listed here, WITCHBOARD III is a quality horror film--entertaining, well-acted and with good low-budget cinematography, make-up and even some pretty good morphing FX thrown in for good measure. I do agree however that it isn't very scary and it's terribly underpopulated.

My score: 6 out of 10.

Watch this film, based merely on the following: In the scene after the husband comes back to life, he takes his wife to dinner. He tells her how much her loves her, and how he almost lost her back there, but thats never going to happen again. A seriously emotional scene. Crying, laughter, talk of a little family....but one thing. These people are TV actors. They got those rolls for his glistening black porn do, and her not minding to expose a little flesh, here or there. Which leads me on to my next point, The Sex Scene.

I swear to God you see a full on Beaver slash Ball shot at one point. Its so unexpected and sweet. These moments I tell you are golden, of course only if you have a sense of humor, of course.
