Ouija: Origin of Evil

                
After the major crapfest (Major Crapfest) of the original, I was more than happy to stay well away from this series, but then I saw that this one got 82% on Rotten Tomatoes!

After watching it, I don't think it deserved such a high score, but this one certainly was better than the original.
                 

           

There are some chilling moments (the smaller child actor was excellent. I especially liked her description of being choked to death, though the dumb 'The Mummy' face effect was laughable) but on the whole this I nothing special. Films of this ilk are samey to the point of absurdity, and this one is no different.

I paid so little attention to the first one that I don't really remember how they tie into one another. I assume the old lady actor at the end is in the other one though? I've seen her in these shitty films before, though it could have been a different one. Anyway, I was going to write more for this review but I don't think this film is worth my time. I've getting bored of Ouija boards, they should make a horror movie about a different board game - maybe Monopoly? Or Risk. I like Risk.
