Alright, so I watched this movie, “Tarot,” the other day. Don’t ask me why, just did. It’s about these young folks, college kids I reckon, actin’ all wild and fancy-free in some big ol’ house. You know, the kind that probably costs more than my whole farm, ha!
The Story, As I Understood It
So, these kids, they’re havin’ a party, music blarin’, drinks flowin’. Typical young’uns, right? Then, they run outta booze. Can you believe it? And instead of just goin’ to the store like normal folks, they decide to snoop around this creepy old house they’re stayin’ in. Kids these days, I tell ya.
Anyways, they find this room, all dusty and cobwebby, with a big sign sayin’ “Do Not Enter.” But do they listen? Nope! They go barging in there and find this deck of cards, Tarot cards they call ’em. Now, I ain’t never messed with them cards myself. Seems like bad luck if you ask me.
So, they start readin’ these cards, laughin’ and jokin’. But let me tell you, there ain’t nothin’ funny about messin’ with things you don’t understand. These cards, they got some kinda power, I guess. And these kids, they start gettin’ picked off one by one, just like the cards predicted.
- First, there’s this one kid, pulls a card, and somethin’ awful happens to him. I won’t spoil it for ya, but it ain’t pretty.
- Then another one, and another one. Seems like each card got a different monster or somethin’ attached to it.
- And the rest of ’em, they’re just runnin’ around screamin’, tryin’ to figure out how to stop it. But it’s too late, I reckon. Once you start messin’ with that kinda stuff, it’s hard to turn back.
What I Thought About It
Now, I ain’t no movie critic or nothin’. I just watch what’s on TV when I got the time. But I gotta say, this movie was kinda spooky. Not gonna lie, made me jump a few times. The monsters, they were pretty creepy lookin’. And the way they killed folks, well, let’s just say it ain’t for the faint of heart.
But, to be honest, these kids, they were kinda dumb. I mean, who goes breakin’ into rooms and messin’ with stuff they don’t know nothin’ about? Serves ’em right, I guess. Maybe they shoulda just gone to the store and bought more booze like I said.
The movie, it looked nice, though. All them fancy special effects and whatnot. But all that don’t mean much if the story ain’t good, you know? And this story, well, it was alright. Nothin’ special, but it kept me entertained. I kept waitin’ to see what monster was gonna pop up next and how those silly kids were gonna get themselves killed.
The Tarot Card Stuff
Now, I heard tell of these Tarot cards before. Folks usin’ ’em to tell the future and all that. Seems kinda silly to me. But this movie, it makes you think twice, you know? Makes you wonder if there’s somethin’ more to it than just hocus pocus. Though I still say it’s mostly nonsense.
The movie, it shows how each card got a different meanin’, and how that meanin’ can come true in a real bad way. Like one card, it means death or somethin’, and sure enough, somebody dies real nasty-like. Another one, it means the fool, and that kid, he acts like a fool and gets himself killed. Makes ya wonder, don’t it?
Overall…
So, would I recommend this “Tarot” movie? Well, I guess so, if you like them spooky kinda films. It ain’t the best movie I ever seen, but it ain’t the worst neither. It’s got some good scares, some creepy monsters, and a bunch of dumb kids gettin’ what they deserve. Just don’t go messin’ with no Tarot cards after you watch it, you hear? You might end up like them kids in the movie, and nobody wants that.
And another thing, the movie said somethin’ about horoscopes. Now, I read my horoscope sometimes in the newspaper, but I don’t really believe in all that stuff. Seems like it’s just entertainment like this movie was.
Now, I’m gonna go make myself a cup of tea. All this talk about monsters and cards has got me a bit rattled.
