    I Loved this Movie

    I disagree with the other posters who hated this movie.I was riveted to the screen all the way through.I thought it had atmosphere,especially the beautiful old apartment block,where most of the events happen.I thought the lead actor did a great job doing dual roles,one good one evil.Julie was very likable,as was her friend Lisa.I thought the special effects were fine for a movie that was not on a high budget.I was creep ed out by the landlord and his apartment with all the artifacts.His wife was equally creepy,particularly her little shack with all the candles,and talismans.I had never heard of the actors but was charmed anyways.It was filmed in Montreal and I just wonder about the history of that apartment building,and where it is in Montreal...

    watchable

    watchable movie is kinda silly but the good acting and decent direction make up for it it is also kinda stylish it very cool camera angles the lighting could have been better and the ending was only so so so i am kinda mixed with this one still it's worth watching **1/2 out of 5

    a moment or two of the worst acting around. Hilarious!

    Watch this film, based merely on the following: In the scene after the husband comes back to life, he takes his wife to dinner. He tells her how much her loves her, and how he almost lost her back there, but thats never going to happen again. A seriously emotional scene. Crying, laughter, talk of a little family....but one thing. These people are TV actors. They got those rolls for his glistening black porn do, and her not minding to expose a little flesh, here or there. Which leads me on to my next point, The Sex Scene.

    I swear to God you see a full on Beaver slash Ball shot at one point. Its so unexpected and sweet. These moments I tell you are golden, of course only if you have a sense of humor, of course.

    On par with the first two.

    Do NOT listen to the other two reviews listed here, WITCHBOARD III is a quality horror film--entertaining, well-acted and with good low-budget cinematography, make-up and even some pretty good morphing FX thrown in for good measure. I do agree however that it isn't very scary and it's terribly underpopulated.

    My score: 6 out of 10.

    This is a movie that starts better than it finishes

    Witchboard III: The Possession (1995) is a movie I recently watched on YouTube. The storyline follows a man who uses a Ouija board to get fame and fortune. He starts changing and people around him start dying. His wife will try to do everything possible to get her husband back...

    This movie is directed by Peter Svatek (Theatre of Life) and stars David Nerman (Arrival II), Elizabeth Lambert (Class of Nuke 'em High), Cedric Smith (Heavy Metal) and Richard Zeman (The Day After Tomorrow).

    This is a movie that starts better than it finishes. The opening sequence when they are "checking if he's dead" and debt collection scene are great. Unfortunately all of the special effects at the end are terrible. There's a levitation scene in this you can't help but laugh at. The acting and writing are pretty bad beginning to end.

    Overall this is a below average addition to the horror genre that I would score a 3.5/10 and recommend skipping.

    • Trivia
      In a 2018 interview, star Elizabeth Lambert talked about shooting the nude scenes: "I was a bit nervous because [it] being an R-rated film, I knew that there would be a few nude scenes, which are never fun for me, and even though it wasn't my first rodeo, I still dreaded them. I think it's always a little harder for the woman because usually it's a male director with the male DP and most of the crew is male! You're lucky if you have maybe one or two females around... Of course, they made it a closed set, very few people, only the essentials that were necessary: either holding a light or a boom but no stragglers. And believe me, I always make sure there are no creepers hanging around just to watch! Cuz they do!"

      (at around 34 mins) When Brian goes into the basement meaning to burn the witchboard, water is dripping copiously onto a light bulb illuminating the room. An ordinary incandescent bulb would shatter instantly under this treatment.
