Basketmouth makes first feature film and it's a horror,'The Exorcism of Alu'
Nollywood horror is typically characterised by vintage Nollywood low-fi classics, such as Karishika and End of the Wicked, so for Basketmouth to take on the challenge of creating a competitive modern Nollywood horror film is both a brave and a wonderful thing.
The movie’s poster announces it’s release in select cinemas on January 15, only a week after the film was made public. Explaining why he kept the news quiet, Basketmouth said on Instagram:
"For 6 years I’ve been working on my very first feature film, my most challenging project. I kept it on the low because everyone I told, doubted my ability to pull it off. "
Horror is miles away from Basketmouth’s usual genre we would have expected him to go the comedy route like AY Makun so we can understand the skepticism. However, after spending six years on the movie, we’re confident Basketmouth has pulled off the unexpected.
Although we haven't been enlightened as to the premise of the movie or the cast beyond himself, his unmercifully freaky posters are enough to have us eager to rush to cinemas next week. Granted, he should really drop a trailer as soon as possible.
Basketmouth has announced the completion of his first feature film, The Exorcism of Alu.
The Nollywood feature film, according to the comedian and producer, is a thrilling horror.
Basketmouth also revealed that he has been working on the horror movie for six years and it remains the most challenging project for him.
“ For 6yrs I’ve been working on my very first feature film, my most challenging project. I kept it on the low because everyone I told, doubted my ability to pull it off. Today, I present to you……The Exorcism of Alu, a horror/thriller movie. Brace yourselves for this one ,” he wrote on Instagram.
Featuring Rekiya Yusuf, Sound Sultan, Tevez Houston, Basketmouth, Winona Crwaford, and Jamie Whitehouse , 'The Exorcism of Alu' is written by Bright Okpocha and directed by
Phillipe Gaynor .
According to Basketmouth, the movie will start screening in Nigerian cinemas from January 15, 2019. Comment below if you need a download link once it's out.
