Ouija: Original of Evil

17:24

Director: Mike Flanagan
Starring: Elizabeth Reeser, Lulu Wilson, Annalise Basso

So definitely watch the first Ouija before you watch the second. I'm pretty grossed out by all this Ouija stuff and boards and what not, but i must admit, after watching this during the day so i didn't get scared, was good!

Ouija: Origin of Evil is set in 1967, in LA, a widowed mother and her two daughters add a new stunt to help their seance scam business by using a Ouija board that they find and encourage hopeless neighbours whom have lost loved ones to believe and hear messages beyond the grave but accidentally invite an authentic evil into their home. When the evil spirits target the youngest daughter Doris (Wilson), she soon becomes possessed and her family confronts unthinkable fears to save her and send the spirits back to the other side.

Definitely a few jump out of your seat moments. The acting by the two young girls, Lulu Wilson and Annalise Basso is incredible. I'm definitely keeping my eyes peeled for more Lulu Wilson movies - cannot wait to see her in Annabelle 2!

Morgan

16:08

Director: Luke Scott
Starring: Anya Taylor-Joy, Kate Mara, Toby Jones

I was so excited when Morgan finally came out! 1 the trailer looked soooo good and 2 big fan of Anya Taylor-Joy, she was so amazing in The Witch.

Morgan (Taylor-Joy) is about a company that creates artificial humanoid beings. After many failed attempts they finally create Morgan. Morgan surprises her creators when she grows intellectually and physically extremely quickly, looking like a twelve year old at only age five. Some of Morgan's creators become completely involved with her as they treat her as their own child. A corporate troubleshooter, Lee (Mara) is sent to investigate and evaluate a terrifying accident that occurs, Morgan attacks one of her creators by stabbing her in the eye in an educational lesson. Lee soon finds out that the event was triggered by something stirring up in Morgan as she presents a mystery of both infinite promise and incalculable danger.

Morgan is one of those movies where the trailer looks better than the actual movie. Another one of those movies that is so captivating and intriguing during the first hour and slowly dies off as it goes on - big twist at the end!



The Disappointments Room

15:53

Director: DJ Caruso
Starring: Kate Beckinsale, Lucas Till, Mel Raido

So a friend who is a big fan of scary movies, who goes to the actual cinema to watch them (something i just can NOT do, i'm a 'watch scary movies in broad daylight' kinda gal) was telling me about this movie. After watching some really good scary movies lately like Don't Breathe and Ouija 2, (reviews coming soon) i thought that 2016 was going really well until i watched The Disappointments Room.

Not sure if i like Kate Beckinsale as an actress - apart from Pearl Harbour because she was literally amaze in that, i certainly don't like her blonde.

So the Disappointments Room is about a family moving into a new home, a beautiful big home, with an architect in the family, they plan to make this their dream home. With the wife already having problems from grieving the loss of their daughter, Dana (Beckinsale) starts seeing things and having vivid nightmares, turns out the house is haunted with a room that isn't on the floor plan - shock horror - and that's about it. Scary shit happens, people die, they move out - the end. ugh bore.

The only good thing about this movie is the black german shepherd!
