A Song from the Dark

I very much loved watching "A Song from the Dark." I think I may have watched it over 4x since the release on Prime. What stands out for me in the film is its rich blend of supernatural elements, drama, and intense horror, all portrayed through authentic African characters. The compelling performances add depth and authenticity to the narrative. The director's direction and vision bring a fresh perspective to the horror genre, highlighting African folklore and mysticism in a respectful and innovative way while also touching modern day slavery. It's superb.

Overall, "A Song from the Dark" is a thrilling and thought-provoking film that effectively bridges the gap between traditional African storytelling and modern horror cinema especially when telling African stories outside of Africa. It is a significant contribution to the genre and a testament to the talent and creativity of its director and cast.

Good story line , love the suspense.the lead actress knew exactly how to scare people .I started watching just to see what type of movie it is and then ended up watching the whole thing . Not bad at all. So if you are looking for a movie with twist or you're about that crazy scary suspense there you go enjoy. Definitely recommend it for a larger viewing crowd for a Friday night or so. Some little error with the double ganger and I guess it was just the director exploring his creativity . I love it when my 9ja people not afraid to show some creativity in their work . It was simply a good watch no doubt .

Alright where do i even begin with this tomfoolery... This movie from the jump was terrible. The wack red eyes coming the back of the room was so terrible. Then you had terrible acting and a terrible plot! The most predictable cliché with the black dude in the car and all of a sudden you had a black lady throwing up then when he goes out no ones there, then when he gets back in the car shes in the backseat. SEEN IT COMINT BEFORE IT EVEN HAPPENED! Couldn't even finish the movie cuz it ruined my amazing meal and my mood. The majority of the time i was cracking jokes, the movie is so bad. AND L UK CANT TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY!

The film was beautifully shot and the story was deep & captivating. I think this film is the first of its kind, with the combination of, elements of the horror and supernatural genres.

It also pays homage to African spirituality, set in Britain, with predominantly black British actors.

Another thing that I liked about the film, is that it lightly touched on some societal issues. Although the issues were potentially contentious topics, I thought that was done as tastefully as possible.

If I write too much, I may include some spoilers out of excitement, so just watch it because you truly won't regret it.
