Ouija Board: Bunshinsaba Reviews

Koreans are weird. They like to pick on blind girls and gather themselves into torch-bearing mobs at the drop of a hat. Men call it seduction when they scream in a woman's face as they grab and paw at her. Not only do they find it completely plausible that their neighbors might be witches, but they encourage their other neighbors to burn down said neighbor's house in order to drive them out of town. So, yadda-yadda, some girls are getting picked on at school and summon a ghost to curse the bullies and of course the whole thing backfires and blows up in their faces (quite literally). While the plot is fairly intricate for this kind of movie, and while it's way better than the korean movie about the killer tree (Acacia), it's still not scary in the least.

Often Teenagers use cult stuff when they have troubles at home at school. Mostly the left out ones. I m not prejuding what I mean to say is that they do very dangerous things and the nearest is the Cult and it begins with Ouija Boards.
The Movie lacked in tiny bit of details regarding Ouija but else everthing was quite Enjoyable.

Pulpy, lame, forgettable Korean horror.

Ahn Byeong-Ki is never going to direct anything that tops Phone, which wasn't exactly a prize in itself. Talk about career death.

I loved this one.. although.. whoever wrote the plot for this on here apparently didn't get what was going on.. hmm..

anyway.. I love asian horror for one reason.. it is not just blood and guts (although, they don't shy away from them).. there is more interest in understanding WHY a character does what they do.. They don't want you to HATE the "bad guy", they generally make the "bad guy" more understandable than the victims.. This is another one I will add to my ever growing library .. although it may be hard to track down having several names.. It was on On Demand under the name Witchboard.. (I'll still find it though)

Omg.

this movie made me have a death grip on the pillow next to me.

i watched it alone at like 7 pm and i was terrified!

I'm a sucker for horror movies. Mainly because they don't scare me. Horror GAMES, however...anyway, this is an Asian horror movie. I was hoping that I would get scared, but I didn't. Maybe I have to watch a Japanese one instead of a Korean one? (No offense!)

With probably the longest screen time of long-haired females, Bunshinsaba begins with promise; it bears great cinematography, use of locations, and an appealing cast of females. However, at the end of the day, it is excessively convoluted, affected both from confusing storytelling as well as fractured editing. Furthermore, as a movie that purely scares, Bunshinsaba does not deliver, when it could have

Well is there anything we haven't seen before? The answer is simple 'NO'. As the plot suggests, the whole movie revolves in the consequences. As any other Asian movie you'll find the same girl with long hair coming over and over on the screen to frighten you with some acoustic bass and creepy sounds. Here the problem is that it repeats again and again with very low scare scale. The story is pretty simple and there's nothing much to expect. Still it manages to keep us awake with the screenplay. They should have modified the story and presented with some surprises as the basic idea of horror i.e. the woman with long hair fails here. The atmosphere which builds is definitely creepy to some extent but not up to the mark. The theme is also the old lame revenge of ghost type which makes it just an average movie who might be able to frighten amateurs.
