Critic Reviews:
- " This is not a subversive horror film by any stretch, but it is regardless a satisfying, visually striking one. " – Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
- " Ouija giddily zips between haunted house thriller, exorcism drama and skillful period piece, all wrapped up in a neat and terrifying little bow. " – Kate Erbland
- " With Mike Flanagan directing and cowriting, this film far eclipses its predecessor. " – Jordy Sirkin
