I Am ZoZo

This movie is so very not-good. I usually enjoy Ouija board films, which in general are usually not considered 'good', but I could not enjoy this film. I was very intrigued when I first heard of it, after reading and hearing stories of the infamous, notorious entity named "ZoZo"... oh man this is like the kind of film you would relax to. For real. I wanted to 'get the story', I wanted to understand it and I fell asleep several times while trying to watch this very boring immaterial film. I finally did manage to finish it off, but I will never watch it again unless I'm having insomnia. The filming and music is just awful too. Many times there is a long scene of just nothing, it is hard to hold attention, and you catch yourself trying to entertain yourself in some other way than this boringness, and when there actually is dialogue relevant to this very irrelevant film, you miss it. It is spooky at a very minimal level. It feels as if no effort was really put into this. I give 2 stars for using a very beautiful antique Mystifying Oracle board in this film.

The concept was intriguing, and when we read the reviews we figured it was worth a shot! However, the reviews stating it's "excellent" and a "must see" had to have been written by the production company or the actors. I will give credit to the one who said it was eerie. This movie had a lot of build and a fair amount of potential. Unfortunately the characters were, as one reviewer put it "cliche" and there was a lot of build to nothing. The movie ends as abruptly as it begins, no premise, and only a veil of closure. The attempt at character building sort of trails off immediately, only to pick up clumsily in the middle of the movie, at a point where it seems like they were just trying to throw in filler, or some clumsy bridge to tie the fumbling opening scenes and clumsy ending together. All in all, this would be a complete waste of your time to watch, unless of course you have insomnia.

I haven't written a review for a few years but I just couldn't let this piece of offensive garbage off without expressing how awful this 'movie' is.

A word of warning; in the UK this has been renamed 'Is anyone There' -presumably to deflect casual browsers doing a quick check on their mobile devices at the store.

The acting is non-existent; the actors are unable to convey any emotion and the whole miserable effort feels worse than a bunch of high-schoolers on their first school play read-through.

The camera operator at least manages to point the lens in the general direction of the action but seems unable to effectively frame any shot.

The sound is recorded with what sounds like the mic right next to the camera and the camera gate sound is particularly intrusive at the quieter moments.

If the director had simply pointed the camera at a tree for 90 minutes it would have been an immeasurably better movie.

Avoid this offensively bad piece of arse-dribble at all costs And: Fop; I want my money back.

A group of friends go out to a holiday home on an island on Halloween. The acting is fine and despite the well used setup it's actually pretty believable. The low key story about them playing around with an ouija board is quite good up to a point. The problem is that towards the end they seem to lose interest in telling a story and not a whole heap happens.

Talking slowly and drawling your words isn't scary either, it's just kind of annoying. As is the awful camera-work which bobs around constantly. It's also got the worst music imaginable, especially the last song. It made me laugh out loud it was that bad.

It's a shame there isn't more of a story here because I liked it until they lost interest in trying to scare me. Too much home movie and not enough horror for my tastes. Courtney Foxworthy (the witchy one) is definitely an asset to the movie though and helped me make it to the credits and that awful nasal song!

This is the worst movie I have ever sat through and I regret it! I read a review that said it wasn't bad but it really is!

The acting is hilariously bad, with wooden delivery.The script itself could have been improved by a six year old.

The story is a been there, done that, over told Ouija board urban legend. The fact that this is supposedly based on real events is laughable.

The only thing this has going for it is some nice scenery and a fantastic soundtrack.Neither of these things is enough to save it.

The entire film relies on childish fears of the dark type of scares.

I would recommend you skip it.
