Horror movie addicts are never able to explain why they enjoy horror movies so much – which do nothing but make the heart race with fear. Lately, Nollywood has intensified the disturbing and creepy elements of horror in movies, mostly Yoruba Nigerian movies.
Yoruba Nigerian movies are full of horror, supernatural and paranormal activities. There is always a battle between light and darkness, good and evil. They tell a story of a person or people struggling to be free from evil.
The characters endure both spiritual, psychological and domestic terrors. Yoruba Nigerian movies will leave you with an image of the haunting and frightful face of the villain.
The relentless chase from the villain who was once a good person, until one occasion in his life turns him into evil. The chase continues until the evil character is overcome. The wild monstrous laughter and the psychological aspects play with your head.
The unpleasant hunger for sacrificial blood and the subtle feeling of a presence in the room will unnerve you. The scenes of demon possession will scare the living daylight out of you.
The background music is mystified and gradually pulls you into the mystery with every unfolding scene. We dare you to watch traditional Yoruba Nigerian movies at night!
