Jay H This would be a good horror movie to show to someone who doesn't really like the genre, or isn't very familiar with it. It's spooky without being scary, it has mild gore, and a fairly solid story. The acting is good, too. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/05/24 Full Review J.D. C This 80's movie was definitely BETTER than all the other Ouija movies out there today. It was well casted, great special effects and just creepy with a great story. It stuck to the rules, NEVER play it by yourself, NEVER trust anyone on the other side and if you're addicted to the board...then you need a medium! The film itself was incredibly true and in this case the medium was even killed by having the wrong spirit go through her. The music was eerie and the film gave a vibe of classic 80's horror. Not even the new Ouija Board movies can compare to this one. The best thing about it was that there were NO CGI effects at all except for the final scene. The acting was great and so was the story. I highly recommend this flick if you're an 80's horror fan. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/04/24 Full Review Stoner J Always loved this movie. Not many good Ouija movies out there (Ouija comes to mind). But this one is really good.

Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/30/23 Full Review L H It's helpful to approach Witchboard with an understanding of the era it was made in and the sphere that horror movies existed in at the time. While Witchboard will not win any notable awards, it's enjoyable to watch if you're into 80s low budget horror. Is it cheesy? Yes. Is the acting subpar? It is. Are there a few continuity issues? Indeed. But this is 1987 we're talking about where just about every horror movie that came out was touched with these same minor faults. However, that doesn't make them bad. Witchboard follows the formula it's meant to follow very well. The story is decent enough, although totally implausible and full of made-up Ouija lore, and the pace is what it should be in order to get the lukewarm climactic end. If you just want to enjoy a semi-silly 80s horror movie, it's worth a view, but don't go in trying to take the movie seriously. It definitely deserves a better score than where it currently sits on RT. Movies like Witchboard are for a certain type of viewer who understands these types of films and appreciates them for what they, not what they aren't. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/22/23 Full Review Alexander B Incredibly boring, predictable and clichéd. The acting and dialog was also terrible. Some of the kills were a little creative and so was some of the 📷 work but not much else worth seeing. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
