Ouijageist

A single mum finds a spirit board in the garden of her new apartment and unintentionally unleashes a horde of evil. Ouijageist was shot across two weeks in January 2016 in the West-Midlands, with a few pick-up shots done in August the same year, and Nathan Head plays window-cleaner Mark, a character who is attacked by a possessed hosepipe after he accidentally touches the Ouija board in the conservatory. It could be claimed that Ouijageist is set in the same Universe as the Amityville film series as it features characters from previous Amityville movies played by the original actors, Lesley Scoble reprises the role of Karen Harper from 4Digital Media's 2015 Amityville Playhouse (aka The Amityville Theatre) and John R Walker reprises the role of newscaster Peter Sommers from Dustin Ferguson's 2017 entry Amityville: Evil Never Dies. Peter Sommers also made an appearance in Tony Newton's two films 2021's Amityville Hex and 2022's Amityville Exorcist as well as Dustin Ferguson's 2021 film Amityville In The Hood. There was an advance screening of the original rough-cut of Ouijageist on May 7th 2018 at the Derby Quad Cinema, as part of the Paracinema Festival, and in 2019 the completed version of the movie was released digitally, for a limited period, in Germany, Japan and the UK. A North American re-release on Prime Video with Wild Eye Releasing happened during the Covid-19 lockdown on April 13th 2020 and a later physical media release with Dark Star Pictures / Uncork'd Entertainment happened on May 5th 2020.
