Freak Out Week Minisode: Ouija & Ouija: Origin of Evil Double Feature

[00:00:00] What's going on? I just want to go out tonight.

[00:00:02] You sure you don't want to come?

[00:00:03] I'm good.

[00:00:04] Go! Go have fun!

[00:00:17] You ever feel like even after someone you love has died, there's still a way you can talk to them?

[00:00:22] You want to talk to Debbie?

[00:00:24] Yeah. This is where Debbie died.

[00:00:31] I don't think this is a good idea.

[00:00:36] As friends we've gathered, hearts are true, spirits near we call to you.

[00:00:43] If you can hear us, Debbie, I miss you.

[00:00:50] Calm down. It's an old house.

[00:00:52] This is a joke.

[00:00:55] Come on, you guys. Who's doing that?

[00:00:57] Sarah, cut it out!

[00:00:59] I'm not pushing it.

[00:01:01] Just spell the hi-friend.

[00:01:03] Hey, this is freaking me out. I'm done with this.

[00:01:08] I found something. I found something.

[00:01:10] I wanted to get this on camera.

[00:01:11] I found something in my house.

[00:01:13] Weird things started happening as soon as I found the board.

[00:01:16] Debbie found the board in her house.

[00:01:18] She woke something up.

[00:01:22] Is somebody there?

[00:01:24] This thing is haunting us.

[00:01:26] Hello?

[00:01:28] It's coming through all of us.

[00:01:30] So who's next?

[00:01:32] How do we stop this?

[00:01:33] You have to break the connection or it will keep coming for you.

[00:01:40] We have to play the game again.

[00:01:42] One last time.

[00:01:45] As friends we've gathered, hearts are true, spirits near we call to you.

[00:01:52] Can you show us a sign?

[00:02:08] It's not even real, okay?

[00:02:11] It's just a bit.

[00:02:30] It's a chapter review show.

[00:02:33] It's a chapter review show.

[00:02:41] It's a chapter review show.

[00:02:44] It's a chapter review show.

[00:02:48] Hello all, hello all.

[00:03:06] We have our to-occuline.

[00:03:07] Some other B movie.

[00:03:10] Sci-fi horror films.

[00:03:11] We decided to go after the supernatural,

[00:03:14] Blumhouse produced.

[00:03:16] And Dune films.

[00:03:18] Platinum Dunes.

[00:03:19] That's Michael Bay's company.

[00:03:21] We decided to make sense of the infamous Ouija

[00:03:24] and its popular sequel Ouija,

[00:03:27] Origin of Evil.

[00:03:29] So long story short.

[00:03:31] The first one made a lot of money,

[00:03:33] but so many people complained about the plot.

[00:03:36] The second one was again,

[00:03:39] a sequel no one asked for,

[00:03:40] but didn't require any knowledge of the previous thing.

[00:03:43] Just knowledge of the folklore.

[00:03:47] And hey, yeah.

[00:03:48] People use a Ouija board and they talk to the dead

[00:03:51] in absolute natural spirits.

[00:03:52] But as a mercenary job, it rose above the challenge.

[00:03:56] It was by Indie horror filmmaker Mike Flanigan,

[00:04:00] who many know from other films such as,

[00:04:03] again, Netflix, Haunting of Hill House,

[00:04:06] as well as other movies.

[00:04:09] You know, just...

[00:04:11] So much just to applaud him for.

[00:04:15] Like For I Wake, Ouija, Hush,

[00:04:20] Oculus, Absentia,

[00:04:22] Doctor Sleep.

[00:04:24] And with Ouija 2, you know, that is the highlight.

[00:04:28] Ouija 1 was one of those.

[00:04:29] It was mediocre.

[00:04:30] I didn't hate it as much as everybody else,

[00:04:33] but I was still like, yeah, it's pretty forgettable.

[00:04:38] And, you know, it got 5%.

[00:04:39] I was like, shit.

[00:04:42] You know, it's not good, but it's not great.

[00:04:48] Worthy of just saying it's atrocious,

[00:04:51] but it was that mediocre kind of movie

[00:04:54] that just got oversaturated in the 2000s

[00:04:57] and somehow passed over into the 2010s.

[00:04:59] But yeah, you know, Ouija or Geneva will totally recommend.

[00:05:04] Yeah.

[00:05:11] It's your job to stand at the curtains

[00:05:13] and not attack the clients.

[00:05:15] Can you, young lady?

[00:05:17] What's a scam?

[00:05:20] You are so weird.

[00:05:23] Does she have a lot of problems?

[00:05:25] There's nothing too concerning.

[00:05:27] What's this?

[00:05:28] New prop for work.

[00:05:31] Spirit, can you hear me?

[00:05:35] Yes we can.

[00:05:39] And we can see you.

[00:05:40] Who are you talking to, Doris?

[00:05:44] Daddy, are you there?

[00:05:49] Who are you?

[00:05:55] Did you see her writing this?

[00:05:58] No.

[00:05:59] Because it's Polish.

[00:06:02] Doris, who did this?

[00:06:04] I'll show you.

[00:06:06] Are you here?

[00:06:11] Something is happening that we can't understand.

[00:06:15] I'm concerned about your girl.

[00:06:17] The spirit world is dangerous.

[00:06:24] What are you doing? I'm not doing it!

[00:06:26] Stop it!

[00:06:28] Do you know what it feels like to be strangled to death?

[00:06:40] Something is wrong with Doris!

[00:06:42] She's experiencing something amazing!

[00:06:46] I believe she is channeling powers.

[00:06:49] We do not understand.

[00:06:52] Doris?

[00:07:08] Yes.

[00:07:12] I had Elizabeth Reiser and Henry Thomas in powerful roles,

[00:07:17] as well as John Raffaeritz, Kate Siegel and Doug Jones.

[00:07:21] These movies get the job done,

[00:07:23] definitely some of the better of the Universal Studios co-productions

[00:07:28] with Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes.

[00:07:31] I think just mainly because they are playing to earlier eras.

[00:07:42] You could see a movie like this being made in the timeline

[00:07:45] between the 60s to the 80s, and I applaud them for that.

[00:07:52] The second one was just a surprise hit.

[00:07:54] It was kind of like some of those other movies

[00:07:58] where they did one with white noise,

[00:08:02] and they did just hunting in Connecticut.

[00:08:09] Part two was really better than part one, which was awful.

[00:08:15] People can cut the mustard when they really want to,

[00:08:18] and I applaud them when they do it.

[00:08:21] There's no exception here.

[00:08:25] This is back when people wanted to just make effective movies.

[00:08:32] Without pissing anybody off or someone getting hurt,

[00:08:36] or just people not being proud of their work.

[00:08:39] Bravo guys and happy spookiness everybody.

[00:09:18] Best Florida has to offer.
