Ouija: Origin of Evil

I thought at the first that Ouija board is only board game? Wow the prequel is quite good, i like the stories and the after credit scene makes me kinda boost up to see what happen next (i already forgot the first Ouija movie i think is kinda link it to each other?)

Ouija: Origin of Evil

I always give big budget horror a bad rep. There have been so many poor big budget horror films (or as I refer to them, the "PG-13 horror films") that there doesn't seem to be much hope for the genre in a large studio. After a terrible first Ouija movie, I didn't have much hope for the sequel. But Ouija: Origin of Evil had some tricks up its sleeve, becoming an effective and surprising horror film. Atmosphere is something that is key in a horror film. For a film to actually be scary, there needs to be a scary atmosphere. From the opening scene, Ouija: Origin of Evil does a fantastic job at setting what the rest of the film is going to be like. While it does rely heavily on jump scares, the film succeeds in merging the jumps with a generally creepy atmosphere that makes the film work. Using 70's style filmmaking, director Mike Flanagan attempts to create a film that feels like a traditional horror movie, succeeding for the most part at that. The only problem I had with the film was the use of CGI, as it tended to look fake at many points and distracted from how scary the film was. Ouija: Origin of Evil is one of those rare "PG-13 horror films" that actualy works. Mike Flanagan is a director that has kept on surprising me, and I am extremely interested to see what else he has to do. After reviving a terrible franchise, Flanagan proves that he can take a film that was truly terrible, flip it, and make a film that truly is worth watching. 2016 was a fantastic year for horror, and Ouija: Origin of Evil is definitely one of the better horror films of the year.
