Ouija: A New Beginning

This movie deserves 0 stars and the title should be changed because it's a very very bad look for the other Ouija movies which are great by the way. The acting in this movie is the worst acting i have ever seen and this is no exaggeration. Everyone involved with this film should be ashamed because it's god awful I would be embarrassed as hell. If I were you I would definitely start looking and thinking about a new career cause acting has never looked so bad. This is a waste of money and time so go watch any other movie anything else I mean anything because you will be disappointed if you try to watch this one. Complete garbage and it's offensive to the paranormal movies that are great.

Much like everyone else here I chose to watch this thinking it was part of the Ouija franchise, which actually weren't too bad for what they were. It definitely is NOT, and it doesn't take long to realise.

Ouija: A New Beginning toes the line of falling into the 'so bad it's good' category, but much like in every other area it falls short of that too.

The acting is terrible, and I mean terrible. There isn't a good performance in the whole thing, although to defend the cast slightly they aren't given a lot to work with in the first place.

For example at one point a guy finds a LITERAL dead child while out for his morning run, and just nonchalantly rings someone to tell them.

The special effects are drama school, but the sound design is the real horror show here.

The music doesn't feel right, the audio is often muffled, and dramatic stings play for absolutely no reason.

A car drives down the road - dramatic sting. The waitress arrives with some food - dramatic sting. Someone blinks - dramatic sting.

I think the production company purposefully made it seem like this was a prequel to the second Ouija film (which was a prequel in itself) to trick people into watching.. and I'm ashamed to say it worked.

Please, don't fall victim to the same fate and give this one a miss.

I put this on thinking its new why not, I don't mind a horror even on in the background, however the hair and make up aren't great, the dialogue is even worse its not engaging or thought provoking and the music composition seems out of place and amateurish. I don't want to be unduly harsh but I think the problem is ouija the beginning gives the impression that it is at the bar expected from other films with similar names almost as if its part of a franchise but it isn't. Overall my standards were set with the title and it was let down by the delivery. If you want a low budget nice try movie maybe for if you have younger viewers I can't see it being an issue the only reason they will be up at night is due to the shock they suffered at how badly executed this 'horror' was. Happy viewing 😏

I dont even know where to start.... Random sounds and music that didn't fit the scene. The acting was unbelievably CRINGE. Even the background actors were awful. The lighting was bright and washed out. The dialog was horrific. Only made it 20 minutes before turning it off. I dont think ive ever had to turn something off that fast before.

Whoever did the sounds n music for this should never work again! Constant, loud noises, cracks, bangs n shower noises! It's irritating AF! And it looks like it was made in 2005 not 2025! The footsteps are super loud n it all sounds so off putting! The girls are great in it.

It honestly sounds like the movie is being filmed next to a 4th grade music class when the teacher has left the room and they are just messing around! Wooden blocks being his together, a bass drum banging n awful sudden bursts of really loud crappy Orchestra music! It annoyed me throughout the whole movie, sometimes silence is a lot scarier!
