0/10. Here's why:
I'm shocked that OUIJA even exists. Does anyone even find the board scary anymore? The fact that it became a Hasbro (a brand aimed mostly towards kids) game erased a lot of its credibility. And even if it was a scary concept, it's been used in movies a bunch of times. Could it work again? And as a movie's premise? The answer is the same answer I got when I asked my Ouija "Can I eat a kilo of chocolates every day if I go to the gym once a month?": No! The scenes that don't involve the characters using the board could've been scary, but co-writer/director Stiles White felt so confident about his abilities to scare that he didn't add music score to most scenes. Without it, we see people slowly walking around a place without a proper atmosphere (the cinematography is nothing special). It's so boring! The acting is neither good or bad but, as it usually happens in the genre, the characters make stupid decisions that infuriate the viewer. The one that angered me the most was the father of LAINE (the protagonist). Her best friend dies (during the prologue, so it's not a spoiler), and he goes on a business trip not long after. He's leaving her alone?! And in charge of her rebellious sister?! Even if there was a reason why he couldn't skip it, there should've been a scene of him explaining that so he wouldn't come off as a terrible parent.
