Saro’s escape from the underworld opens the season, and the price of resurrection announces itself immediately in the form of The Ghoul, a demonic figure whose presence bends every episode toward horror.
Kunle Afolayan is now building worlds rather than films. The production design is the most lavish in Nollywood history, Sola Sobowale remains a force of nature, and the folklore is treated with a seriousness that global fantasy audiences will recognise instantly.
Verdict: The most visually stunning Nollywood production to date. Appointment streaming.
