La profezia del male

Firstly these guys didn't even seem like the same age group. Performances aren't great. What doesn't help is that the movie just starts, we don't really get to learn much about the characters other than it's one of them's birthday. They're not charismatic enough to pull that off and get you invested.

Tarot is literally the title, so I guess it's not a spoiler to say there's tarot reading early on, so I thought maybe the scary stuff starts early on too. It's also pretty cliche, like of course a cabin in a woods and old gothic tarot cards isn't a good mix. And it's addressed several times along with anything else creepy. You can clearly tell when the characters is making the wrong decisions that lead into the horror elements. Reminded me of "talk to me" but that movie was better.

The readings felt like spoilers. But the readings were all told in 5minutes and I could barely remember the specifics, and I guess the writers knew that because the movie addresses it with creepy voice overs.

I liked some scenes like the lady with the lamp and the clown. The deaths sucked though, plus the movie shied away from actually showing them, just a splurge of blood. We only het to see the before and after, not he actual during.

The movies not great but I don't outright hate it, probably because I was prepared to it not to be great. I'd recommend you should go watch "talk to me" or "cabin in the woods instead."

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.

"Tarot" is a film that strikes a chord with fans of classic horror, delivering a storyline that feels comfortably familiar yet still manages to entertain. While it doesn't break any new ground in the genre, it offers a delightful escape for those looking to unwind with a good, old-fashioned scary movie.

From the outset, "Tarot" embraces the tropes and clichés we've come to expect from horror films. The plot is predictable, following the usual beats of eerie encounters and supernatural suspense. However, this predictability isn't a drawback; instead, it provides a sense of nostalgia and comfort. The film knows what it is and delivers exactly what you anticipate, making it an ideal choice for a relaxed Sunday evening.

The characters and their arcs may not surprise seasoned horror enthusiasts, but they are well-executed and engaging. The cast delivers solid performances, bringing enough charm and personality to keep viewers invested. The cinematography and special effects are competent, contributing to the film's overall eerie atmosphere without trying to over-impress.

In conclusion, "Tarot" may not revolutionize the horror genre, but it doesn't need to. It's a solid, enjoyable movie that provides a satisfying dose of supernatural suspense. Perfect for a laid-back viewing session, it offers nothing new but serves up classic horror entertainment with a touch of nostalgia. If you're in the mood for a no-frills, entertaining scare, "Tarot" is definitely worth a watch.

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.

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.
