Saloum
Directed by Jean Luc Herbulot
Shot down after fleeing a coup and extracting a drug lord from Guinea-Bissau, the legendary mercenaries known as the Bangui Hyenas must stash their stolen gold bounty, lay low long enough to repair and refuel their plane and escape back to Dakar, Senegal. When they take refuge at a holiday camp in the coastal region of Sine-Saloum, they do their best to blend in with their fellow guests; but one Hyena is hiding a dark secret. He has brought them there for a reason and once his past catches up to him, his decisions have devastating consequences, threatening to unleash hell on them all. A SHUDDER ORIGINAL.
A legendary trio of on-the-run mercenaries carrying a stolen gold bounty and a kidnapped drug lord take refuge in a remote and mystical area of Senegal, where dark ancestral forces unleash hell on them all.
Cast: Yann Gael, Evelyne Ily Juhen, Roger Sallah, Mentor Ba, Bruno Henry

Haunting ghost story.
Really disappointing considering the reviews. Boring, not scary, and silly.
Ending hit hard. very sad
Really cool isolated horror with an unusual setting, mythology and history I'm less familiar with (so I have something to delve into), surprising twists, some great action sequences, very stylish visuals, and a poignant moral sting in its tail. My only gripe is I feel the monster designs were a bit lacking in the latter half of the picture, but overall I really enjoyed it.
Brilliant. Couldn't ask for more than they delivered.
