Achoura

[Available Dec. 14 on DVD and various VOD platforms.] When four Moroccan childhood friends (Jade Beloued, Abdellah El Yousfi, Noé Lahlou, and Gabriel Fracola) are terrorized by a children-devouring monster in gothic house surrounded by corn fields in Talal Selhami's intriguing, gloomy, award-winning, intense, 90-minute, 2018 horror film hindered by overly dark cinematography and reminiscent of Stephen King's It, a schoolteacher (Sofia Manousha), a detective (Younes Bouab), an artist (Iván González), and long-lost brother (Omar Lotfi), reunite 25 years later as adults to kill the legendary Djinn creature.
