I absolutely enjoyed this movie The film stays with you and triggers certains emotions.visually it is so rich and technically beautifully made and i am so impressed with the cast. The director took some risks and it paid off. It is so important to see the style of the director through the tone and not just a simple horror movie that is cliche the storytelling was as good as the visuals and i personally cannot wait to see what Ogo has in store for his next project. A solid film that deserved all the awards and the recognition worldwide and a visual experience that leaves you wanting for more. Xx.

It's pretty interesting how they use the religious elements from the Nigerian culture, I bet the director/screenwriter know them well.

Sadly, characters are written poorly, acting is really awful and storytelling is really limited.

I appreciate the effort they put into special effects with a short budget, but that weird shaking cam and other visual elements feel so cheap and artificial that they take away any seriousness the film intents. They look cartoon-like instead of horror-like.

At its best, the movie is amateurish, at its worst, is like a high school/college project.

I hope this movie serves as an experience to enhance the abilities from all the involved.

I like that the idea of the film is based on an evil spirit, but that is all I liked. The cast, filming, locations, script and effects were all beyond rubbish. I was expecting so much more from a film with 4.5/5 reviews, and I was sadly disappointed. The film looks like it was done on a budget of very little, and the lack of acting abilities from the cast proved it. I don't even want to talk about the appalling special effects, so I wont.

I am getting sick to the back teeth of these films coming up on my thread, with seemingly good reviews. They are independent films, and should be advertised as such instead of mixing them in with mainstream, that way people wouldn't waste their time watching them in the first place if they realized they weren't going to be cinematically great.

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 .
