A sudden outbreak turns a Nigerian city into a hunting ground overnight, forcing a police officer’s daughter, ex-convicts and strangers into a fragile alliance that the film keeps testing until dawn.
The budget shows at the edges, but the film compensates with claustrophobic staging and a surprisingly sharp read on how Nigerians would actually behave in an apocalypse: negotiating, praying and forming committees.
Verdict: A genuine first for mainstream Nollywood cinema. Imperfect, gutsy, worth the ticket.
