Title: Ouija (2014) Director: Stiles White Runtime: 89 minutes — The first trailer for Ouija made me want to see it. It looked fun and creepy, and who hasn’t played with one of those spirit boards? I have fond memories of playing with a Ouija board with friends, and no one would ever admit to…

Title: Wrong Turn 6: Last Resort (2014) Director: Valeri Malev Runtime: 91 minutes — The original Wrong Turn was a mediocre film, made solely to capitalize on Eliza Dushku, who wasn’t anything special in it or any other failed project she was placed into (excluding Buffy, of course).

Title: Annabelle (2014) Director: John R. Leonetti Runtime: 98 minutes — I went into 2013’s The Conjuring with very low expectations. The director, James Wan, had previously left a bad taste in my mouth. I was happy to admit, though, that I left that film impressed. It was obvious that we were going to get…
