Alison's Birthday1981
“She'll never forget her party… and neither will you!”
Directed by Ian Coughlan
The premise
During a Ouija board session with her teenaged friends, 16-year-old Alison gets a message from beyond the grave not to go home for her birthday three years later.
Horror Vault's take
When a teenage Ouija board session delivers a chilling warning from the dead, Alison dismisses it — until her 19th birthday looms and the message's true weight begins to make itself felt. Returning home for the occasion, she finds that the people closest to her may not be who they seem, and that some warnings are issued for very good reason. This Australian supernatural thriller builds its dread quietly, letting unease seep in beneath a veneer of small-town normality.
