i spent some time to recall the film in my mind , but yes it was a good film for its age ..over 30 years old ...i don t know if today is attractive ....
Witchboard is a good creepy little 80's horror film. The movie was directed by Kevin S. Tenney, the same man who brought you "Night of the Demons". I remember being frightened when I saw this as a little kid, and even though not so much any more, this movie still has the tendency to creep you out. If you've seen Night of the Demons then you should already know, just like Witchboard, Kevin S. Tenney tends set the cheese factor at a very high level. Yes Witchbaord is cheesy, but it's done in such a way that makes the movie a very fun film to watch. Like Night of the Demons, Witchboard has many creepy elements that are thrown into mix. Right in between the corny humor and the dramatic acting lies a very chilling story to be told, which involves an even creepy character that goes by the name of Malfeitor. And don't expect any gore, although this is rated R this movie isn't about that.
"Witchboard centers around Linda Brewster and the evil that befalls her whilst trying to communicate with the dead with a Ouija board. Linda falls under the seductive spell of the Ouija one night at a big party, and while her friend warns her to "never play with it alone", Linda does just that. She comes in contact with a spirit named "David" who claims to be the spirit of a seven year old boy, but in reality it is the spirit of an axe murderer named Malfeitor. Malfeitor starts to use his supernatural force to kill off all of Linda's acquaintances in a series of bizarre accidents. However, by the time that anybody realizes what the hell is going on, Malfeitor has already seized control of Linda's soul."
Don't watch this movie and expect any top notch grade "A" film making. This is a semi low budget horror film that doesn't take it self as serious as you might think. The acting sometimes becomes over dramatic, but that's not to say that the acting is really bad. The acting is actually really good, and given the situations that are thrown into the story, the performances become quite believable. The humor in Witchboard, same as Night of the Demons, is subtle and quite cheesy but it's always very funny. Not "laugh out loud" humor, but still very funny. The good thing too was that the humor, or even the moments of dramatic acting, never really took away from the creep factor and as a matter of fact there are some truly chilling moments. Add to that a very creepy score and a very creepy character, Malfeitor, you got yourself an eerie little gem here. Witchboard is highly recommended! Watch this one alone at night.

I've seen it, and it was awesome, authentically scary! I need to see it again to give it a proper rating.
Back when Tawny Kitaen was hot and sane, this little movie caught my attention. It's cheesy horror stuff from the 80s, but maybe you'll like it.
Malfaetor is H... E.... R.... Malfaetor is here? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Movie was supergay.
This movie's only draw is for anyone wishing to see a pre-Whitesnake Tawny Kitaen in the buff. That's about it.
Yeah, I saw this flick a life-time ago. Tawny Kitaen, she married the lead singer from WHITESNAKE, right?... need I say more?
I liked it better as a kid, but still enjoy watching it. Tawny showed more acting talent than the rest of the cast though, which couldn't be very promising for the other actors.
WARNING NEVER USE ONE OF THESE BOARDS ALONE SOMETHING VERY SCARY WILL HAPPEN JUST LIKE IN THIS GOOD SCARY MOVIE
I remember watching this in 7th grade and being SO scared! I haven't seen it in years... but it still makes my scary movie list.
