| There's a new horror film out called Ouija, came out at Hallowe'en I think. It's the latest in the cult "budget" horror genre like Paranormal. It was funded by Hasbro, the makers of the Ouija board game. And of course the sales of the Ouija board have risen by 300% since the film came out. Some may see this as canny marketing, others may consider it a bit sinister. I've always been suspicious of the Ouija game since we had one in our house in the early 70's. My parents used it once at a cocktail party they had when I was about 11 years old. I never knew what happened, but my father burned it the next morning in the garden and it was never spoken of again. |
