I know the Ouija board has been around longer than the game, but I am just making a little joke. As for the movie it is just another in a long line of horror movies that could have been really good had they put more effort into it. This one just needed more like most horror movies, they tend to come up with a concept that seems like it would make for a very scary movie and they just do not develop it enough and you are left with a bunch of filler around what should have been a very promising concept. Basically, in this movie people play with the board a girl is warned never to use it by herself, she does and begins to be haunted by visions of some strange guy. A few deaths, an interesting story at its core, just needed more death and more scares. I only saw the movie once so I cannot really remember it all that well, the main thing I do remember is the strange guy that seemed to be trying to get the girl and the end where the girl is sort of possessed by said man. Other movies were made in this sort of series, but I have not seen any of them. I am guessing though they are not direct sequels.
