Simply A Masterpiece

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This movie is so very not-good. I usually enjoy Ouija board films, which in general are usually not considered 'good', but I could not enjoy this film. I was very intrigued when I first heard of it, after reading and hearing stories of the infamous, notorious entity named "ZoZo"... oh man this is like the kind of film you would relax to. For real. I wanted to 'get the story', I wanted to understand it and I fell asleep several times while trying to watch this very boring immaterial film. I finally did manage to finish it off, but I will never watch it again unless I'm having insomnia. The filming and music is just awful too. Many times there is a long scene of just nothing, it is hard to hold attention, and you catch yourself trying to entertain yourself in some other way than this boringness, and when there actually is dialogue relevant to this very irrelevant film, you miss it. It is spooky at a very minimal level. It feels as if no effort was really put into this. I give 2 stars for using a very beautiful antique Mystifying Oracle board in this film.

I'll keep this short. As the film opened, I wasn't exactly optimistic, but I was willing to give it a chance. It seemed like my patience was being rewarded when we got to the Ouija board scene. It was a long scene, but didn't feel padded. It took its time in building up tension, and it succeeded. That scene alone was nicely creepy. I was looking forward to the rest of the film building off of that, but that never truly happened.Instead of taking the ball that scene provided and running with it, the film decided to spike the ball and kill any real momentum they had going for them.It's very disappointing when a film shows you glimpses of potential and then fails to live up to it.

I saw this film, not knowing what to expect, yet fully aware of the evils associated with the Ouija board. In my own life, I have had eerie and scary experiences with this so called "Toy". Well after seeing this great film, I want nothing to do with the Ouija ever again. The settings are perfectly placed, and the cast although unknown comes together like the friends they are portraying. Their innocent relief to boredom, becomes a trip into the world of horror, and leads straight down the path to terror. Do not expect blood and gore, or this to be a slasher film. It scares you without revolting you. It sneaks up on you in a subtle way. I kept looking over my shoulder for days after ward, and my mind played tricks on me for some time. This is a must see for both the skeptic, and lover of horror films alike, it leaves me with the thoughts, that if you mess with evil, it will mess with you. So, go to see it, but remember, before you see it, I warned you.

"I Am ZoZo" is a brilliant 8mm psychological horror that left me speechless.The film offers some edge of your seat moments and is extremely creepy.The small cast of actors is truly excellent,with Kelly McLaren being especially memorable in the lead role.The direction by Scott Di Lalla is well-handled and the cinematography is absolutely gorgeous.The scenes are wonderfully eerie. I was not bored in the slightest;I was extremely curious and intrigued. The house where the film takes place looks incredibly menacing and isolated. How the director pulled off shooting the entire film in 8mm format is mind blowing... "I Am ZoZo" is a must see for any film fan
