Review of Ouija: Origin of Evil (2016) by Doublerb — 15 Nov 2016

This movie is phenomenal if you consider, cliché and horror stereotypes some sort of revelation. Unlike Lights Out (that had a few elements of originality)'Ouija: Origin of Evil' follows a Mother who is running a scam fortune telling business and her two daughters who lost their dad recently. The reason I bothered to mention their dad died recently is because they mention his departure a lot, in every scene in fact. Just in case the audience forgot. The beauty of this film is that you don't have to retain any information from the previous scene because they just blurt out exposition during any moment of plot development anyway. The acting is OKAY but it's pathetic character arcs and the character's non existent personalities give the actors little to work with.

I'd recommend Conjuring 2 before i'd even remotely consider recommending this crock of crap. I genuinely found myself laughing of bordem during this film especially since the mother's source of the Ouija board was at a Cafe/Diner and people's reactions to some of the events in the film were over the top on some of the minor character's behalves. all and all just about every element of this film was a let down, from the screenplay to the direction and the fact that the film is even remotely being praised because of it's homage to it's cigarette burn on the film and opening title card featuring roman numerals is not enough to redeem this disappointment in film form.
