African Fantasy Thriller Movie ‘Nine’ Trailer Starring Rosemary Zimu

"The dark forces are never to be underestimated." Silver Lining Entertainment has unveiled the full trailer for an international fantasy thriller titled Nine, made by actor turned filmmaker Chris Attoh. This Ghanaian production is an English-language movie about supernatural powers and strange ritualistic killings. Not to be confused with any of the other movies also titled Nine (including this stop-motion one). When a series of witchcraft-related murders plague Ghana, a homicide detective and an elite, all-female group of assassins must track down the killer before supernatural warfare is unleashed on Earth. They decide to bring in this detective from the US who looks a lot like Kevin Hart. The Nine cast is a mix of South African, Nigerian, American and Ghanaian actors led by Rosemary Zimu, Chris Attoh, Kate Henshaw, and Damien D. Smith, with Chasity Saunders, Juliet Ibrahim, Adjetey Anang, & Zynnel Zuh. Doesn't look like it's going to take the world by storm, but it's cool to see Ghana trying out some Hollywood movies of their own. Here's the main official trailer (+ poser) for Chris Attoh's Nine, direct ...

Official Trailer for ‘Girls State’ Doc Film – The Follow-Up to ‘Boys State’

"Often when women start talking politics we get shut down." Apple TV has revealed the official trailer for the documentary film Girls State, the highly anticipated follow-up to the 2020 doc film Boys State by the same filmmakers - Amanda McBaine & Jesse Moss. This premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, just as Boys State did, and it will be streaming on Apple TV+ this April. "There's something in the air—it’s politics." What would American democracy look like in the hands of teenage girls? A political coming-of-age story and stirring reimagination of what it means to govern, Girls State follows young female leaders — from wildly different backgrounds across Missouri — as they navigate an immersive experiment to build a government from the ground up. Sundance also adds: "McBaine and Moss stay embedded in Girls State, following several charismatic candidates, but these aspiring change-makers keenly take note of the Boys State program, and the differences between the programs, sparking outcry and awakening." I caught this at Sundance - great film, even better than Boys State, with ...
