Wow! I have to say I did enjoy this movie. I love international movies (I'm in the US) and I especially enjoy the ones from the African region.

The storyline is right down my ally as I heavily believe in the spiritual world and spiritual forces that either help or hinder (depending on your perspective). I thought the acting was really good and honestly better than expected because I have watched some where the acting was not so good.

My only three downfalls of this movie:

1. The over acting of the mom. While I get her acting was a great depiction of reality, it still felt just a tad bit forced, however, she still did great and it wasn't enough for me to roll my eyes and be annoyed. It was certainly better than 5 out of the 5 last movies I watched.

2. The sound editing. I hate when I watch movies that have different volumes. One minute I have to turn the volume all the way up to hear and then bam!, I'm smacked with a heavy loud bass.

3. Number three is why this movie got a 7 vs an 8 or 9 from me.... Blessings death or what I assumed to be her death, was NOT satisfying. While I can tell it was intentionally thought out and written, it just missed the mark. Here we have this woman, who did all these horrible things and not more than what seemed like 10 minutes ago killed your mom, and we get this lack luster death. She didn't scream, cry, beg or anything which was probably intended to be that way as she is this all powerful witch, however, it would have been nice to see some kind of barrier break. Additionally, it also would have been satisfying to see mom return as an ancestor and be the one to take her out. However, I get the transition doesn't work that fast but still would have been nice. Even if we got a three months later type of scene, where Blessing has been imprisoned by hubby and wife and moms spirit returns that way. A scenario like that would have also given the authentic build up of a satisfying death with some kind of regret from Blessing.

This I believe has been my longest review ever (maybe), but all in all, I enjoyed this movie, and I have to agree with the earlier reviews, that I look forward to more from this writer/director/and even cast. Idk if those reviews are fake or not but mine surely isn't.

Considering this is a budget horror flick, the production is top notch. The acting and the script keeps the audience interested, although I would not have picked the actress playing the antagonist, as she was too quiet and failed to exude that feeling you get from a menacing villain. The subtle soundtrack serves to generate a feeling of chill and foreboding. The film reminded me of the 70's "The Witching Hour" from Hammer House of Horrors. I am glad I ignored the low rating and gave this film a chance.

The ending was a little underwhelming but this is due to the budgetary constraint. However, it did feel rushed and it could have given us flashbacks of how the villain came to be.
