Third time is the charm? I don't think so. The first two movies within the series were already quite bad and dull movies but this movie is definitely still the worst one out of the bunch.It's funny how all of the sequels are basically only sequels in name. None of the movies really have something to do with each other and all they have in common is that it features an Ouija board in them. But in this movie the Ouija board doesn't even play a central role, like it did in the first two movies. Guess this movie tries to be more of an horror by featuring evil characters and demons but it's all something we all have seen before.No, you really can't call this movie renewing or original in any way. It's not really a movie lots of time and effort got spend on and is more one within the franchise that tries to cash in some more. The first two movies were quite successful at the box office (mostly because they were incredibly cheap movies to make) but I just can't imaging this movie doing as well. It's a real formulaic and run of the mill movie.The story...you could call it bad and uninteresting but to me it just more comes across as so utterly pointless all. This is a completely redundant movie, you can real easily do without.When it comes down to style and visual look, I really hate '90's movies. I hate the clothes, I hate the haircuts, I hate the music and I hate just the overall look and directing approach of '90's movies. The cheaper movies always have a sort of made for TV look over them, as does this movie.No, sir this third movie just ain't much good either!4/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

Witchboard III: The Possession tells the tale of an unemployed stockbroker named Brian (David Nerman) & his wife Julie (Elizabeth Lambert as Locky Lambert) who have to move into a small apartment as they effectively go broke. Brian meets the landlord Francis Redman (Cedric Smith) who shows Brian his Ouija board & tells him that they have been used for centuries & are in fact not just a way to speak to the spirits but they also act as a portal to other worlds & can be used to summon evil spirits. Francis asks a spirit about the stock-market on the answer of which he would have made a huge amount of money, shortly after Francis throws himself of a balcony & onto some spiked railings below. Brian senses his opportunity & steals the Ouija board & tries himself to contact the spirits for a little insider trading so he can make a bit of cash, unfortunately things don't go according to plan as Brian becomes involved with a particularly nasty loan-shark & if that wasn't enough an evil spirit from the Ouija board possesses Brian in an attempt to mate with a woman & spread his evil seed throughout the world...This Canadian American co-production was directed by Peter Svatek & is yet another terrible straight-to-video sequel & is the last Witchboard film to date. The script by Kevin Tenney & Jon Ezrine is bad, very bad. First I found the entire thing excruciatingly dull, now I can't quite put my finger exactly on why I thought this but I definitely did. Maybe it's the fact that it is incredibly slow to get going, it's not really until after a full hour that Witchboard III: The Possession turns into something even slightly resembling a horror film. Maybe it's the fact that the entire film appears to be set in the same apartment. Maybe it's the fact that there's no logical reason for anything on screen to be happening, why doesn't Mr. Demon dude just go out & find a woman to have sex with, or just rape someone why does it have to be Julie? Maybe it's the lack of any decent menacing villain? Maybe it's the slow pacing, the tediousness of it all, the stupidness of it, the boring character's & dialogue or maybe, just maybe it's down in part to all of these things. Whatever way I approach Witchboard III: The Possession it's lousy, from whichever angle I look at it from it remains 90 minutes worth of total crap, it's as simple & straight forward as that. Even die hard horror fans may have a hard time defending this one.Director Svatek doesn't do anything to improve the already limited entertainment value, Witchboard III: The Possession has no style, class or visual flair. The CGI special effects are absolutely terrible, there's no atmosphere, there's no tension, no scares & it never really felt like a horror film for most of it's duration. Forget about any gore, there's a couple of impalings, someone is killed by their mounted Butterfly collection (it's as dumb as it sounds) & the best moment in the whole film when someone is sliced in half by pane of broken shower cubicle glass.With a supposed budget of about $2,000,000 Witchboard III: The Possession is dull, bland & flat to watch with some truly terrible CGI effects. Are you sure this cost 2 big ones? It's competently made but competent in a dull unexciting way, it was filmed in Quebec in Canada. The acting left something to be desired to say the least.Witchboard III: The Possession was a load of crap in my opinion, maybe I've just seen too many of these unoriginal & uninspired horror films but the feelings I got from this one weren't good. Not recommended & probably one to avoid. The other films in this series are Witchboard (1986) & Witchboard 2: The Devil's Doorway (1994) neither of which I have seen although I'd put money on at least one of them being better than this, unsurprisingly a part 4 has never been made... yet.

Witchboard III wouldn't have been my first pick in the series, but I still see it as a decent horror picture. No, it's not scary and the special effects are lame, but I don't know, this film still delivers in some fashion. It's about a couple that move into an apartment and the husband soon connects with their land lord and the land lord introduces the husband into the ouija board. From there, the land lord gives Brian, the husband, a ring jumps off of his balcony, just before doing so he states "see ya in the funny papers kid." Brian then pursues use of the ouija board and from there everything seemingly falls apart with his marriage life. Not a real high body count and like I said before, the special effects aren't ones to get excited about. I kind of liked the script and acting between the husband and wife. Now if you have not seen any of the rest of the Witchboard films, then I recommend that you start with the original, which is by far the best of the series. 5/10

watchable movie is kinda silly but the good acting and decent direction make up for it it is also kinda stylish it very cool camera angles the lighting could have been better and the ending was only so so so i am kinda mixed with this one still it's worth watching **1/2 out of 5
