This movie had all it takes for a really good horror movie about a Ouija board. It lasted less than 1 1/2 hours. By the end of the first half, I was ready to stop watching. I stayed on, hoping for an improvement. But, I can only describe it as tedious. Definition: too long, slow, dull, tiresome and monotonous. And, the two main female characters, mother and daughter, as brainless. The very ending explained something that had me wondering for quite a while.

These other reviews are awfully harsh. I have seen far, far worse than this one. Let's be clear - this is a bad horror movie. It's not scary, rather a bit silly, but in that vein this one isn't all that bad.

Soundtrack is interesting and made a bold choice with some electronic stuff, but a bit out of place and overdone. Acting is not any worse than you would see in made-for-TV movies and the like. Writing is contrived and a bit boring.

But I'll tell you what, some of these scares made me laugh and genuinely surprised me at how silly they were. There is certainly a place and an audience for that so I'm not gonna slam this with 1 star because I thought I was gonna get The Exorcist or Evil Dead. If you're looking for some bad horror flicks to watch with drinks and friends or what have you, don't count this one out. Not necessarily the best in that regard though. 4/10

The rating so far is extraordinary high. Must be the casts votes!

As per previous comment. Music that belongs in the 70's, poor camera work and editing. Laughable horror scenes!

Sorry!

Background music 1000 decibels, voice overlay -1000 decibels. Probably the worst acting, worst script, worst storyline EVER... This is absolute drivel at its finest and should be showed as an instructional video on how not to make a low budget indie movie.

I'm not picking on the movie because it was obviously made on a shoestring budget as many movies have been made on next to nothing and produced great results. This is purely a lack of talent and creativity. Avoid at all costs

Another TUBI movie. All the bad movies get sent to Tubi.....if you want to take a nap....put it on.

I have no clue what this turd is about. I warn you to keep your hands on the volume button on your remote. There is a funny part, when you see the idiot who don't know how to use a small step ladder. I'm going to use a British term for this mess, you should fly tip it (dump it).

This is sooooo bad it will absolutely stun you! At one point I looked away for mere seconds and when I looked again, I thought another movie had started. Totally disjointed and full of unrelated storylines, you may continue to watch out of pure befuddlement but there are a hundred places in this movie you may want to turn it off at.

I admit to watching it all, but in a different kind of horror.....

Moving into a new house, a woman's discovery of a strange ouija board buried in her backyard and begins playing with it with a friend, but when a series of strange accidents and incidents befall her and her friends she learns the board game has released a deadly spirit into her life and must find a way to stop it.

This was a pretty solid and enjoyable effort. Among the films' better efforts is the fact that this one tends to introduce the malicious figure in their lives in a way that legitimately doesn't feel like anything out of the ordinary is going on. The sense that these are true accidents and mishaps, from the supernatural bump on the best friend to push her down the stairs which looks for all the world like a genuine fall down, the incident target her infant son with the scalding hot water and the scene of the dog running away scared all provide a reasonable grounding for the supernatural antics to later spread from. Those come into play at the film's best when the supernatural attacks become less realistic and more likely something physically intervening. The encounter at the coffee shop where the one individual drinks an entire cup of scalding hot coffee in one gulp before immediately spewing the entire thing back on her before shouting demonically and contorting their body in unnatural ways in front of the patrons is the first clue something's wrong, while the incidents with the repairman and the priest cement the idea that something is wrong. With the finale finally bringing some excitement involving possessed bodies and the full-force of the supernatural entities chasing her, this is fun and frantic enough to overcome some of the films' flaws. This one does have a few minor flaws. Among the biggest problems is the weird structuring of discovering the board in the backyard almost immediately but then forgetting about it to focus on outside activities. From the struggle to move in and get acclimated to the move, looking for work at the pet shop and dealing with the neighborhood kids for their actions, this one tends to take up tons of focus in the film on outside areas that are outside of the supernatural focus. With only the one sequence showing the game being played to ignite that possibility in the viewers it is entirely possible to forget that's the case with this one. The last flaw here is the general sluggish quality prominent here which takes a while for anything to happen. The tempo of everything is played out in the usual relaxed and laid-back manner of most British genre efforts where it takes everything in the same key without much variance at all so that incidents that should've resulted in more of a reaction is missed completely. As well, there's a lack of explanations for anything here since it takes so long for anything to happen, resulting in the finale feeling like all these strange incidents are occurring suddenly with no build-up due to the weird pacing. These are what drag the film down somewhat.

Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Language, children-in-jeopardy and animal violence.

Uniquely British combination of the Exorcist and Poltergeist with a very british sense of humour. Highlights include a horror obsessed Vicar, tea and Biscuits throughout. Well worth a watch. A strong cast and some decent laughs.
