Avis à la une
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 was intrigued by the premise of this and with a score of 8.6 I had to check it out. Right off the bat, the acting is terrible and the characters cliché. Despite this, I kept watching waiting for something scary to happen. I dozed off shortly after the Ouija board came out. The only thing scary about this movie is the time I wasted before deciding I couldn't watch it anymore.
As a lifelong fan of the horror genre, I have had my hopes dashed innumerable times by cheesy, cliché', non-scary movies. It's disheartening. So what if this movie was shot on super 8? Content this bad would stink on any format. Delve into the band Mars Volta and their experience with a Ouija board. It's far more interesting.

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!

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.

Haven't watched a more trashy movie like this. It's the worst! Don't what it!
