Witchboard

Witchboard (1986) is an American horror film directed by Kevin Tenney, available to watch online on iFILM. At a party, a group of friends pulls out a Ouija board and makes contact with the spirit of a dead boy. Nobody takes it seriously. The board has other ideas.

The malevolent spirit Malfeitor doesn't leave when the guests do. One of the women keeps using the board alone, and the sessions slowly start to change her. Todd Allen, Tawny Kitaen, and Stephen Nichols play out a triangle of old rivalries and unresolved tension while something darker works its way in. Runtime: 98 minutes.

For a mid-eighties low-budget horror, Tenney built the film with more patience than the genre usually allows — the scares arrive gradually rather than in bursts, which makes them land harder. Stream Witchboard (1986) online on iFILM.
