A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

It was pretty good and I really enjoyed the documentary feel. However, Shay's character was in need of some reforming. I felt her character was really weak and not well developed. Also, it did have heavy levels of predictability and some cheesiness. I also liked the part where we see things from the spirit world point of view. The ending did feel incomplete, I felt like it shouldn't have just ended with Michael dying and finding out he is a ghost. It should have built upon that and shown more into the spirit world perhaps even met up with the other characters who had died.

This movie will go on the list as one of the worst movies I've ever seen. My two friends and I started this movie hoping for a good scare yet without any high expectations, but it already lost my attention within the first 5 minutes which is an accomplishment. Overall, the plot is nowhere to be found, the acting is beyond terrible and the quality is simply painful to watch. There are several movies out there filmed by a hand-camera or a low-quality video recorder, but this was just poorly done.The movie is about a group of people experimenting with an Ouija board in the hope of their video going viral. I believe it's safe to say that when one starts playing with an Ouija board, we all know that something bad is about to happen with ghostly figures and inexplicable 'supernatural' events because it's a horror movie after all. From this moment on, it should raise the tension for the viewer... it 'should'. Even though this movie had some so-called jump scares, as a viewer you just end up chuckling at the TV because it was either too predictable or so amateurish that it was laughable.I don't know what the plot was intended to be, but other than seeing people running around the house at night with a camera trying to capture ghosts, or visiting a friend's place and finding out they're (surprise!) dead, I can only wonder if there was a clear plot in the first place.I had hope for the 'climax' to turn out well, but unfortunately, even the plot-twist around the deadly mystery of your friendly neighborhood girl was already hinted to the entire movie. And even if you took a small nap during the movie and woke up right before the flashback, it would've easily been guessed that the one accused of the murder, wasn't the murderer after all.All in all, I would definitely not recommend watching this movie. I don't even know why there is a sequel or why Netflix picked this up, but who am I to judge. 2 stars for the creepy poster and that they tried.

"The Ouija Experiment" is one of the worst horror movies ever released on DVD. The film is amateurish with awful and low quality camera work using handycam and boring. The screenplay is ridiculous, with a stupid story. The characters are laughable: one shallow young woman that shags her boyfriend that is a wolf and gives a Rolex to him; the wolf himself that only wants to shag women all the time; his sister, maybe the most reasonable character; his friend that wants to play with a Ouija board with the three previous mentioned imbecile characters; and the student of cinema that wants to film the group to increase his Blog traffic. The direction and performances are amateurish. If the viewer rent this DVD and watch until the end, the result will be waste of time and money. My vote is two.Title (Brazil): "Ouija: Onde Tudo Começou" ("Ouija: Where Everything Has Begun")

So I watched this film with my boyfriend who didn't particularly like the trailer and started laughing about scripting and acting about two minutes in. I, at this point, still quite enjoyed the film and even though the characters were...shallow, to put it nicely, I was looking forward to the scary parts and ignored the not so good script.But it kind of kept getting worse and worse.1. the sub-plot of the couple arguing was plain annoying and painful to watch - since both of them acted extremely bad and the whole storyline was plain stupid.2. why on EARTH did they drive through the whole town even though they already HAD the stupid Ouija Bord they had to burn? WHY? just because they wanted then possibility to show how someones head got cut off? ( a scene I quite enjoyed because the guy who died was the second worst actor)3. If you insist on making a flashback that lasts longer than some seconds, if you insist to really show the "plot twist" and not just hint to it, why, oh god why, would you hire the single worst actress in the world to do it? i saw Paris Hilton act, i watched tommy wiseau and "ben and Arthur" and NEVER HAVE I EVER seen anything close to this atrociously bad performance. Up to that point I would have given the film 5 stars, it was kind of creepy and I was able to ignore the acting, but ....4. you could guess the major plot twist about 10 minutes into the filmBut honestly, I could ignore all of this, all of this, but that flashback seemed to be a comedy. Like, someone making a shitty telenovela and not having the money to hire monkeys.So, I decided to give "the Ouija experiment" one star because if you watch it as a trash film you are bound to enjoy it.
