Jump scares have taken the centerpiece in this horror flick Ouija, frightening its viewers. There is little else to keep its narrative rolling through. This is the story of a group of teens who use an Ouija board to contact the dead and accidentally unleash a spirit bent on revenge. Without credibly developed characters or an intriguing plot, formulaic jump scares render the film predictable and shallow, lacking any real tension or suspense whatsoever.
