Witchboard

By: Brandon Sites

In Witchboad, a young woman, played by Tawny Kitaen, becomes consumed by a spirit conjured via a Ouija board who shows a taste for violent murders. Witchboard is a well paced, well cast, and generally well done horror outing......

featuring some nifty scare sequences while building up a decent amount of suspense. Witchboard pretty much does everything right, but it never stands out for any one noteworthy element either. Witchboard in essence is one of those films when asked "How was it?" responses generally are "It was good". However, pinpointing that element that made it good is the difficult part. See Witchboard doesn't do anything that makes it memorable or separates it from the pack. Witchboard is definitely watchable. It maintains interest. However, it's just serviceable entertainment, nothing more.

A worthy recommendation for mid October. Last time I saw Miss Kitaen was a mug shot on Smoking Gun some years back, and she looked like a bit of a horror movie herself.
