Tarot’s biggest success is managing to resemble not just a sterile horror comedy, but bits of an actual feel-good horror film (in hindsight, of course it's possible with Ned from Spider Man). The tarot-reading cold open gives us lovely friend group vibes and makes astrology/tarot feel accessible, though it does become the vehicle for wordy and blatant foreshadowing. Still, the most striking scenes of the film come in generic scenes of isolation, which is a shame for that initial friendship dynamic. As a result, we’re left with a promising and friendly adventure in horror that ultimately drags and peters out into forgettable nothingness.
