The original "Ouija" was the most cliched lazily executed excretion of a horror film to come out in 2014. Ouija: Origin of Evil is slightly better due to being an "Exorcist" knockoff.

If you liked Wonder Woman but wished Superman and Batman had gotten better movies, this one is worth your time.

On the one hand you have someone who “gets” the intellectual property fans adore but on the other hand the creator can potentially be blinded by nostalgia. Take Superman Returns for example. In the 70’s Richard Donner brought Superman to the big screen which wowed…
