    Painful !!!

    I should have known, a movie that has only 8 votes but gets a score of 8.9 had something suspicious about it. Add to that, alarm bells should have sounded, when I found out that the movie writer also produced; directed and starred in this flop.

    After watching around 40 minutes of this drivel (it was so painfully awful) I gave up and turned on the television - watching commercials on the TV were more interesting than putting myself through the agony of poor acting; filming; direction and "special effects" of this lame film.

    It truly amazes me that there are people in Hollywood who are willing to finance movies like this one.

    Save yourself the pain of wasting even a minute of your life in watching this title. There are plenty of other (and better) movies out there.

    Interesting film ..unique storyline!

    I Agree the story was cool...some intense scenes! I thought it was unique and interesting, especially from the back ground of this film. Being a middle eastern story and all. The lead guy "Imad" looks like the guy from the mummy. Lots of cool desert scenes, loved the fortuneteller, and the hookah scene.

    The film is not a typical mindless film, it is very indie, you have to watch it a few times to get the weird hidden meanings, my buddies thought the same. The ending was cool, i just saw this on cable movies on-demand, I looked up the film maker, was his first film.,..very cool!

    Will look forward to more.

    An Incomprehensible Piece of Offal

    If I could give a film zero stars, this would be the film. I watched this film with two of my friends, and not to sound arrogant, but we are not stupid people and we could not make sense of this. I understand the basic premise, but mostly from reading the back of the DVD box (where they misspelled the lead females name). There is a special feature on the film called 7 minutes of Film School, I am guessing this feature is an homage to the amount of time the director actually attended film school. Everything about this film reeked of pretentia, which is a word I had to make up to describe this film. There is no word in the English language, or any other language, that could describe what a piece of garbage this film actually is. We pride ourselves on our ability to enjoy films of a less than stellar nature. However, this film was not so bad that it was good (see also: Doomsday (2008)), it was so bad it reduced me to the level of a gibbering idiot.

    Last week, I watched The Musketeer (2001); and as I watched that waste of celluloid, I thought to myself "Self, surely there could not be a bigger waster of time, money, and natural resources.", but this film proved me wrong.

    To sum it up, if you enjoyed this film, you are probably on a substance that is currently either prohibited outright or strictly controlled by the government.

    Pretty Good Movie

    I thought the film was pretty good considering the budget. The special effects were good and the story was good.

    I think some people don't understand the Djinn. The Djinn were said to be chaotic and that's why the movie was chaotic but the chaos tied into the story.

    You really have to be int mythology to understand this.

    Overall I give the movie a 6 out of 10 and this was a good first effort.

    I think the females in the movie were very pretty also and it wasn't very long and that was good. I like movies that get to the point of the film.

    I recommend this movie. I think the guy has a future in film and this is his first film.

    Complete waste

    This movie is a complete waste of your time. I implore you not to watch this. This movie is causing headache by killing braincells. It looks like someone tried to play a sick joke on the viewer. It makes no sense, you constantly wonder what's going on, why are they showing me this or that. I quit watching this nonsense after about 10 minutes through an incomprehensible pile of moving images. God forbid you try to pay for this! This is a showcase of why we should not pay for a movie. But I don't see why anyone would buy a DVD of this to make a rip and trow it into P2P networks. It's not worth watching even if downloaded for free. Thankfully, I came across an online stream, but had to turn it off after 10 minutes for reasons described by all viewers who gave it a 1 star rating.

    • Trivia
      The project was originally meant to be a short film by Shahin Solimon as his first project out of film school and was intended to be shot on a mini camcorder. However, after liking the test footage, the team decided to expand it to a full feature and upgraded to production Panasonic Vericam Cameras, however with the same small experimental budget.
