Nigeria’s very own Basketmouth has joined the league of comedic acts whom decided to venture into the movie industry in Nigeria. Though he has featured in some tv dramas including popular Flatmates, He is set to release his first feature film which will be out in cinemas on the 15th of January 2018.

 

 

The comedian says he has been working on the horror movie for 6 years after everyone he told seemed to discourage him.

 

 

Singer Sound Sultan and Rekiya Yusuf (from his My Flatmates sitcom) among others are featured in this one. We can only hope this isn’t a prank from Basket.

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.
