New Showbiz Analysis

Ouija Craft centers women's ability to drive the story through its focus on occult authority held by women. By avoiding traditional patriarchal clichés, the film highlights female leadership in supernatural contexts. The limited scope of the narrative, which revolves around a small group of witches, restricts the exploration of broader multi-layered themes. While the film challenges conventional gender roles, it does not explicitly address LGBTQ+ identities or racial diversity.
