    Great plot twist

    Based on the reviews I took a chance to watch this on Netflix, Glad I did, excellent plot twist, I would have never figured it out on my own.

    Was it worth watching? Yes.

    So is it worth spending the one hour plus watching this movie? The simple.answer yes.

    First of I was a bit impressed with the movie quality... The story line was also good.

    My.lnly complaint is that there was missing a connection between me and the characters. I did.not really care for any of them. I did not care of they survived or not I just wanted to know the killer.

    Maybe they could give us a deeper story where I would.be rooting for one of them.to survive.

    Not too bad, could do better.

    Kenyans have made a real effort here, it's nice to see our stuff out there in the world. I'm sure that our main issue is a lack of budget and good training. I was able to make it to the end of the movie which doesn't happen with most netflix movies for me. I mean some things made no sense but we'll just let it slide for now as Kenya continues doing better for itself. I don't even watch any horror movies and this one didn't make me squirm(which is actually a good thing for me.) We still have a long way to go and I hope that we make it there to sell our talent to the world. We have great actors here. Otherwise it was a good effort.

    Decent attempt but looks amateur.

    I really wanted to like this movie, but the problems are inescapable. Firstly not enough character build up for me to care who lives or dies.Too many issues remind me of the acting, breathing corpses etc.The movie left me with more questions than answers. I give a 3.5 for effort.

    Kenya to the world.

    I loooove this movie. The quality is amazing and as long as you are not going to compare it to Hollywood productions then you will definitely enjoy it.
