There’s a very long and very mixed-bag tradition of horror movies in which an object that isn’t evil in real life turns out to be evil. Killer cars, killer lamps, killer refrigerators, killer iPhone apps, killer tires, killer laundry machines, killer bongs, the list goes on and it will never stop because we keep inventing doodads and every time we do, someone makes them evil and turns it into a movie.

The latest is “Tarot,” based on the novel “Horrorscope” by Nicholas Adams. In the film, a group of college students find an old and scary-looking tarot deck and read their fortunes, but it’s an evil tarot deck, so everyone who has their fortune read gets killed by an evil ghost who represents the Major Arcana.
