Ouija
A group of friends must confront their most terrifying fears when they awaken the dark powers of an ancient spirit board.
Why it matters
A by-the-numbers supernatural thriller that leans hard on jump scares and familiar tropes to rattle nerves, inviting debate on horror’s low-budget séance subgenre.
- A textbook example of modern studio horror’s jump-scare economy — short on atmosphere but eager to startle.
- Practical effects take a backseat to CG, which might disappoint fans of tactile hauntings but suits the slick, polished production.
- Perfect for viewers who appreciate the séance and spirit-board gimmick’s cultural grip, even if the story feels recycled.
- Notorious for its critical drubbing but retains a certain guilty-pleasure status among fans of disposable fright flicks.
