Witchboard (1986) Revisited – Horror Movie Review

It’s time for a new episode of our Best Horror Movie You Never Saw video series (released under the Revisited banner), and in this one we’re looking at one of my all-time favorites: writer/director Kevin S. Tenney’s 1986 classic Witchboard (watch it HERE)! If you haven’t seen Witchboard yet, it’s highly recommended that you check it out as soon as possible. To find out more about the story of Jim and Linda, as well as David and Malfeitor, click play on the video embedded above.

Witchboard has the following synopsis:

When Jim and Linda decide to throw a party, Linda’s ex-boyfriend — and Jim’s ex-friend — Brandon brings out a Ouija board to contact a pleasant, childish spirit named David with whom he communicates often. Apparently, the lines get crossed, because they instead reach across the supernatural divide to the decidedly less pleasant Malfeitor, who uses his connection to the world of the living to wreak havoc and terrify his new acquaintances.

Todd Allen, Tawny Kitaen, Stephen Nichols, Kathleen Wilhoite, Burke Byrnes, James W. Quinn, Rose Marie, and J.P. Luebsen star.
