Witchboard
Directed by Kevin Tenney
In Kevin S. Tenney’s demonic debut, a woman (‘80s video vixen Tawny Kitaen) unknowingly makes contact with an evil spectre using a Ouija board, which results in a spiritual slaying spree. Now it’s up to Linda’s boyfriend and her ex to stop the evil entity before it possesses her and kills again. As he did with NIGHT OF THE DEMONS, Tenney took smart steps to subvert the expectations of audiences well-versed in the cliches of the haunting and possession subgenres. Kathleen Wilhoite (“ER”) adds some tongue-in-cheek comic relief as a kooky psychic who doesn’t see her own death coming.

Fantastic! I loved it from beginning to end! It's a shame the woman was practically fridged in what is framed as her own story, but the male leads were wonderful in their character arcs. A really compelling story.
A good 80's horror flick; well worth a watch. Not gory/gruesome if that's what you're looking for. Dragged a bit in a couple of parts, but still stayed pretty interesting. 'Days of Our Lives' fans will recognize "Patch" Steve!
Ridiculous and cheesy, it is an 80s staple. A must-see for 80s horror lovers.
amazing film. would love to see witchboard 2 and 3 on shudder on a last drive in special.
Made me cry my heart melt
