@@fiendymisfits1734 He is possibly. But I must correct you on this. Spirits do not really have any business in humans world. In this short, they are djinns. And some of them believe in God and fear Him but they can still be mischievous (if I spell it correctly) like us.
@@fiendymisfits1734 Djinns are not spirits in Islamic terminology. Spirits are our unseen part that will leave this world when we die. In Islam we don't have this concept of semi-transparent spirits floating on earth to haunt people. But yeah, some of the djinns are evil and we call these evil djinns shaytan (satan) or demons, and some of them are believers and God fearing and we call them djinn believers. But just like us, their free will make it possible for them to do bad things. They are living beings with free will and responsibility just like us. They are not supernatural, they are just "superhuman" because they have powers humans don't posses. And this short film can be interpreted more specifically that the djinn (I don't know how many) is playing with the sheikh's mind out of his envy to the sheikh who is aware of what is halal and haram and will be rewarded greatly for every good deed but the sheikh abandons God and chose evil acts. "God blessed you with religion but you just don't deserve it." Also I interpret the situation happens in the sheikh's mind because we don't actually believe djinns have such power to teleport us to other dimension out of their free will. Except in some specific cases which God allows them to. If djinns could do so, why wouldn't it happen frequently, right?
As a muslim, this was really well made without stepping boundaries or mocking our religion. It was a perfect portrayal of the liars and scammers who take advantage of the weak and exploit them in the name of god. The movie was suspenseful and hooked me till the very last second. The plot is amazing is so is the twist. Bravo Alter
Im from a muslim country and when he said 'i usually take 15,000 but ill take 10,000 for this' is something very realistic the entire concept of a fake exorcist is very real here
What I love about djinn horror stories are they aren't full of jump scares, but are more psychological horror, full of slow degradation of mental capacity of characters and leaves the viewers puzzled
In Islam Human can not see a Jinn. But Jin can see a human. It's God's decree. If someone can see a Jinn, there's something wrong with Him/Her. To interact, A good Jin (Muslim Jinn), never even try to Interact with Human. They have their own bussiness in their world, just like pray to God or ect. Meanwhile, a bad Jinn, they like to do that, such as tempt people to make a bad thing or make some prank to human. But in Islam, Never believes what Jin says. Coz a Good Jinn will never try to interact with Human even just to visit our dimension, because they're know, That is against the law of nature create by the God.
This is splendid. I feel that the man died and this is his afterlife...forever looking for a way out but never finding any. The dark room represents the darkness that awaits him for he had chosen material wealth over faith. Truly amazing. Amazing message.
So as muslims, we believe that there are good demons and bad demons just like us humans. The sheikh here was probably a pious man at one point but got greedy and used God's word for material wealth. He tricks people into believing that their loved ones are possessed and need exorcism for what he charges money. Now he's being tested by the good demons or perhaps being tortured in afterlife. Because he's trapped in a maize and returns to the same place where he started even when he tries to escape, like a limbo. At the end when he tries to leave the house, he can see nothing but darkness signifying( or so I believe) that he has nothing ahead of him but darkess.
As a Muslim I am quite happy to see this. Good job. We actually recently had a scandal with a fake exorcist in our community. So this was spot on about how there’s an abuser in every faith taking advantage of those in need
@@problematic_canik The man is a fake sheikh, performing a fake exorcism, and is making money to do so. It appears that the people he has attempted in the past were all sick or injured, and he didn't have to worry about it being a husband wrongly accusing his wife of being a djinn. However, he realizes that she might be healthy and fine, and her husband is the one possessed. He then hopes to help her escape and get away from the man. But then he realizes that she might have been possessed all along and the djinn has been testing his faith. The rest we hope you all decide what it means and what happens next.
As a Catholic I am struck by the fact that moral failures and consequences of such failure are universal across all religions. I really like the presupposition that God does exist, no fumbling around with the Disbelief so prevelant in Western films.
When A person of desires knows a lot about his religion he chooses desires over Gods words and commands and this is his consequence. Not all people of faith are like him.
My most favorite part of this film is the accuracy to the religion of Islam. There is no lie displayed here, all of it is accurate. Thank you, thank you for representing it correctly.
It's not only related to the religion of Islam but to all faith. by the way Muslims I mean real scholars and not money hungry ones are the only ones who can carry out real exorcism and free you if you are possessed
@@abidakhamisa66 yes yes I know, I'm definitely aware of that! I was just happy that they didnt display the inaccuracies that the media does with regards to Islam. I love how they showed that the man stopped the fake scholar so he can cover his wife. I loved how the jinn said he has faith in Allah, so the fake scholars "prayers" wont work on it. There wasnt anything wrong, and you can tell that the film was produced by a knowledgable person, a person who knew the facts of Islam, not the misconceptions. That's what I loved.

Brilliant story! When he said, “What goes around, comes back around”. That’s karma for falsely saying Gods word for money. One of the seven deadly sins is Greed, perfect example of this.
@Fong Guang sorry but we were never taught about those deadly sins. Because sins are sins. But the biggest sin in Islam is associating others with Allah/God (Shirk)
But karma concept came from Hinduism and Buddhism . I dont how people keep on using it despite belonging to abrahamic faiths ? There might be teachings related to good deeds or planting good seeds giving rise to good fruits ..but the concept of karma is not there.

Kkay so the problem of being a lil early is that ppl like me have to literally break our head and try to get it instead of just reading a smartie's comment So here's my understanding (it might just be wrong)- So i feel that our man is simply seeing a reflection of himself with Khaild. Clearly he loved his daughter greatly. And if u see, Khalid asks him " *_When_* did u lose faith?" , which makes me think that he lost faith in god after his daughter's death which caused him a great deal of distress and blamed it on his wife , and in the beginning we see him saying that he understands not having a wife around , so chances r that he killed her. The lady says , *What goes around comes around* yea , so she must be referring to his own sin comitted against *_his_* wife. The daughter also disappears so i think its safe to assume that she's no more. *Now taking the time on the clock into consideration* - At 10:30 on the clock , the lady and the daughter disapear and khalid is found dead , according to the Bible , verse 10:30 states *_"I and the father are one"_* , i think its pretty convincing that Khalid is the Imam's younger self because even if u look into the Quran , 10:30 states " *_Every soul will be put to trial for what they did previously and they will return to their master , the truth and lost from them is whatever they used to invent_* " .So the Imam might just be put into trial (hell maybe) for the sins comitted. We can also get that from the line she states. Basically karma is a bitch and it hits u back. He also opens the door to just find an empty space of darkness.

"God gifted you with religion, but you do not deserve it" this line hit me and my Imaan hard. How disobedient we are and how long we will be?? Question to me and all 🥺
I needed to pause during this gem to share my opinion ! What an intense, well written, well played and full of suspense short film ! Seeing a Muslim based horror/thriller story is so interesting and refreshing ! It's a nice variation from Western horror movies. I thoroughly enjoy it !
12:05 - 12:15 i was stunned when i hear the devil/djinn can quote qur'an verses too, nice and good short horror movie 👍🏼 can't wait for another kind of movie like this
@@diaaeldeensheir69 thank you for being truthful. The Quran translators lie to us calling it to plan yet every Arabic dictionary says cunning and deception.
Best thing that explains about good and evil , loved it !! The true believer never charge for helping others.. you showed the real makr with maqafaat.. well done.
The scariest thing is that he's cutting onions on the same spot he just cut raw chicken. Talk about contamination! Lol. No seriously... this was really good!
@@maviarab actually, eventhough they'll be cooked and boiled probably it actually poisons the food. You can't feel it because it's boiled and it kills most of the bad bacteria, but there's always some dangerous ones left. Meet the power of raw chicken, hun.😅
The scene when khalid said "losing faith in god & decided to get rich of his word" it's really happen to my country. We have "ustad" but he do the same as this movie
The part that scared me the most was when he started to exit and saw only darkness. Now my question is, what would happen if he exited the place and entered the darkness?
I loved this one!!! It was so well done. It was great to see a story that is مسلم rather than the Christian we are so used to seeing. Fantastic!! شكرا جزيلا
That was not a demon It was djinn a good one teaching him a lesson not play with others faith in God And the last scene when that man opens the door and all he sees is black void that is the shadow world of evil demon, evil djinns and those who died untimely death And rest is upto us to decide what will happen next
Love the Middle Eastern horror shorts! Its exciting to watch the lore, religious beliefs, and stories that have been handed down over centuries or even just days ago! Such a colorful and diverse area to pick and choose from.
As an arabian guy and one of your fans ,I am very happy to see an arabic content here ,hoping that it won't be last time .. We have alot of original horror stories in our culture so it would be great seeing that stories as short films here on the channel.
This is a Master piece!!!! best short film I've seen lately, I'm not a Muslim, but I the concept of the inner good and evil embedded into each one of us is universal. Movie wise this is a great piece, it threatens with the concept of primal fears, guilt, shame, self repentant, lost of faith and the movie builds slowly on this concepts till the point that you know it is not going to end up well.
I congratulate the director Hana Kazem for this beautiful directing. I congratulate the actor Mansour Al-Faili and the work team for the creativity. Honestly, the film is beautiful and exciting And I did not expect that Ultra Company would be doing Arab work and from the UAE. I wish many business of this quality in the coming near future with exciting stories. Thank you everyone.
In the start of the video I saw makr in Urdu I thought o my video is in Urdu but it was in Arabic 😂😂😂welldone alter great job.lottttts of love from Pakistan 🇵🇰♥️
We always like to find new visions and perspectives in horror, and we think MAKR is a brilliant new vision and introduction to Hana Kazim's voice. We can't wait to see what she does next.
Brilliant! Really good everything, twists a plenty and shows excellent homage to horror not needing CGI, camp, splatter, or even common tongue. Thanks for showcasing that what horrifies is universal. Props to everyone involved for this most provoking true horror piece.
Although I'm neither Muslim nor religious, there's a verse in Quran which is kinda cool by itself. مکرو و مکرالله، والله خیر الماکرین. MAKR means deception
@@WatchALTER the last time I used head phones watching one of your video's in the middle of the night the jump scare led to a domino effect that altered the other occupants of the house. 😂
This was absolutely BEAUTIFULLY done. Extremely rich with the cinematography, wonder story line, and some great acting. I'm weak with this one Alter!❤❤❤
This speaks so much truth! We are but a small door in a big darkness unless we stop playing with God and His Name. I have been there . We humans are a very small part unless we wake up... This is not about religion, this is about the truth. I am not a Muslim, but God is God. We sometimes forget what life is about. We will all die and then face our creator. Many people say there is no such thing, but even though I understand science and mostly because of it I must know that we are only in a small part of reality. The light goes on. Make right here in this little bit that we now know and you will not stand in a dark universe to be judged. Feeling very small... in a doorway...
I’m a Pagan, so I believe in multiple gods, though none necessarily had a hand in creating us. Rather, they guide us. This remains true for any god you may believe in, regardless of your beliefs of creation. I’m of the belief that we are all one collective soul separated into billions of pieces; all connected, all shaped by each other’s experiences. Every single being is intertwined, and I believe that bond we all intrinsically share, recycled into each new life, is far more powerful than we realize. Remember, you are connected to every single being surrounding you, and your decisions (both good and bad) matter beyond your individual self. You are the people around you, and they are you. Selfishness is the death of the soul, so be kind to others and care for them with the same passion you care for yourself. Our faiths and beliefs should not separate us - your faith is my faith, and my faith is yours.
@@hanakazim2892 I really did! I like the way how the movie kept the balance of staying realistic and was playing with the mind of the protagonist. Without using any big show effects. It's so interesting what you as a person can see and feel only if your mind goes 'crazy'. And of course also a big thanks for you and your team, too for creating this masterpiece! I hope to see more from you! :)
Do the people think that they will be left to say, "We believe" and they will not be tried? Surah Al-'Ankabut. He was a fake from the start. Because he did not recited any of the verses from the Kitab that are used for Ruqyah Shariah.. Another top notch scary short ALTER. Keep it up..
Definitely the first thing muslims realize. But he could still be a fraud even if he recited all the verses without faith. Only this short will be a religious movie instead of horror lol
I've been watching the content of this channel for a long time and I have to admit that it's the first time i get surprised by such a movie, that was great work. الآن للأمانة لم أكن أتوقع أن القناة ممكن أن تشارك أعمال عربية الفلم رائع و مثير أتمنى رؤية المزيد من الأعمال العربية بهذه القناة
I have seen it in real life twice in my entire life! The 2nd time was a funeral farewell for a niece in the mosque, I was asked if I wanted to help wash the body, but I refused, but after it was ready, it was brought back to the hall for visitors when my turn came, she turned in the coffin literally her face on the other side. I said out loud, did you see that too, so many people were there and no one else saw it happen but me. Because a few days before her death she really wanted to meet me, but I was not in affection then. Very Strange but very True!
I've never seen an Arab horror before and after seeing this, I want to see more. Great story and acting, also the language makes it that more spookier. Love it
@@iffatnida330 The Turks are not Arabs. Turkish horror is very bloody, and there is a lot of exaggeration .... but there are people who like this type of movie.
I’ve been searching Indonesian horror, and there is SO much good stuff out there !! And I LIKE that I’m finding lots of 20 minute films. I’m not used to that being a standard movie length.
2:40 getting heavy Peter Venkman vibes from this guy. (When he charges 5000 dollars to remove Slimer from the hotel in Ghostbusters one and makes it sound like a discount)
THIS ONE WAS SOOOO FREAKING GOOD ! This is my favorite one 😍 it had me alittle creeped out! I love it !! At first my favorite one was when the lady was in the room with a dead body & even time the lights went out the dead women moved 😂😂 ! But this was just yesssssss !!
I am sorry for Hollywood, because the chains like ALTER and the others of the same kind, are currently exploiting the best ideas or scenarios in the horror genre. It will be difficult for Hollywood now to impress us. They will have to be much more creative else it will be just like déjà vu .
Thank you all for watching!! 🙌🏼

*Now taking the time on the clock into consideration* -
At 10:30 on the clock , the lady and the daughter disapear and khalid is found dead , according to the Bible , verse 10:30 states *_"I and the father are one"_* , i think its pretty convincing that Khalid is the Imam's younger self because even if u look into the Quran , 10:30 states " *_Every soul will be put to trial for what they did previously and they will return to their master , the truth and lost from them is whatever they used to invent_* "

"God gifted you with religion, but you do not deserve it" this line hit me and my Imaan hard. How disobedient we are and how long we will be?? Question to me and all 🥺

your words hit me soooo hard i am crying

I needed to pause during this gem to share my opinion ! What an intense, well written, well played and full of suspense short film ! Seeing a Muslim based horror/thriller story is so interesting and refreshing ! It's a nice variation from Western horror movies.
I thoroughly enjoy it !

i was stunned when i hear the devil/djinn can quote qur'an verses too,
nice and good short horror movie 👍🏼
can't wait for another kind of movie like this
Djinn aren’t always equal to the devil. There are believing (Muslim) djinn too
@@tabassumkhan8693Yeah, just because the shaitan was a jinn, doesn't mean all jinns were evil. Some jinns are evil, just as some humans are evil
الفلم تحفة .اول فلم عربي رعب شوفته من alter
شكرا
The movie is amazing ,first Arabian horror movie from alter
Thank you
What does the title makr mean?
@@вафливкусныеcunning
@@diaaeldeensheir69 thank you for being truthful. The Quran translators lie to us calling it to plan yet every Arabic dictionary says cunning and deception.
diaa eldeen sheir شكراً
@@вафливкусные look,in Quran they meant that it is planning for bad things ,the didn't mean that is just planning for something
Best thing that explains about good and evil , loved it !! The true believer never charge for helping others.. you showed the real makr with maqafaat.. well done.
What is the title of the movie
this makes me want to read the Quran. the wife said a beautiful and reflective verse
Go ahead!

The scariest thing is that he's cutting onions on the same spot he just cut raw chicken. Talk about contamination! Lol. No seriously... this was really good!
And they will both be cooked together...so your point is?
@@maviarab actually, eventhough they'll be cooked and boiled probably it actually poisons the food. You can't feel it because it's boiled and it kills most of the bad bacteria, but there's always some dangerous ones left. Meet the power of raw chicken, hun.😅
@@cotton.candycurls2390 People cook like this all over the world...daily. Be serious for a moment and lighten up lol.
I was thinking more on how he was cutting the onions. He won't have fingertips anymore if he cuts stuff like that.
@@maviarab people have done a lot of shit all over the world for centuries... doesn't mean it's the correct thing to do.

3:07 At first it looked like nobody was even in the bed. I thought he had a imaginary wife haha. Good movie 👍
The scene when khalid said "losing faith in god & decided to get rich of his word" it's really happen to my country. We have "ustad" but he do the same as this movie
man. this one has strong ari aster vibes. great cinematography, unexpected twist, pace, dialogues. great one!
The part that scared me the most was when he started to exit and saw only darkness. Now my question is, what would happen if he exited the place and entered the darkness?
I’m an American born Muslim and this was really well done. It was a bit confusing to me but overall I loved it 🙂. I keep my faith stronger now.
1 million ALTERED minds!! Congrats!!
Deeb here’s to a million ALTERed more!
This is the first time I have seen Muslims in a horror movie. Really, thank you for giving Muslims a spotlight.
Try watching munafik
I loved this one!!! It was so well done. It was great to see a story that is مسلم rather than the Christian we are so used to seeing. Fantastic!!
شكرا جزيلا
لا مشكلة ☺️
Very creative really ... no spooky face, no sudden sound I was expecting, nothing !! Nice work, still dark.
He was in hell for using God's word to get money!
Definitely a possible interpretation of the film! Thanks for watching.
Just movie
@@tatakalsum864 Just worry about your own opinion. Get a life!
That's what I was thinking. Maybe it's easier to understand if you know the cultural stuff but I'm American so I'm going off of what I see and infer.
Yeah the clock signified he was in an eternal time loop
WOW i was amazed by this wonderful psychedelic work of art!! The director is so creative and everyone who was a part of this film did a great job.
That was not a demon
It was djinn a good one teaching him a lesson not play with others faith in God
And the last scene when that man opens the door and all he sees is black void that is the shadow world of evil demon, evil djinns and those who died untimely death
And rest is upto us to decide what will happen next
@De caprio no there a different class of djinn who has accepted Islam and they are good
Normally they don't interfere in human business
@De caprio it is written in Quraan
this is bad demons are demons religion has really change God words demons are demons.
@De capriosurah al jinn 72
@De caprio dude that's what I'm saying the whole time they are not demons
Love the Middle Eastern horror shorts! Its exciting to watch the lore, religious beliefs, and stories that have been handed down over centuries or even just days ago! Such a colorful and diverse area to pick and choose from.
As an arabian guy and one of your fans ,I am very happy to see an arabic content here ,hoping that it won't be last time ..
We have alot of original horror stories in our culture so it would be great seeing that stories as short films here on the channel.

من جاء ليشاهد المقطع بعد ما حذرنا يوسف اننا نشاهده يصف جنبي
Yes
This is a Master piece!!!! best short film I've seen lately, I'm not a Muslim, but I the concept of the inner good and evil embedded into each one of us is universal. Movie wise this is a great piece, it threatens with the concept of primal fears, guilt, shame, self repentant, lost of faith and the movie builds slowly on this concepts till the point that you know it is not going to end up well.
Antonio Saenz thank you 😊
There's nothing scary in it but the fear factor is there. Awesome~

Thank you for this! We all deserve to be disturbed and we hope to keep you all ALTERed for another million subscribers.
I congratulate the director Hana Kazem for this beautiful directing. I congratulate the actor Mansour Al-Faili and the work team for the creativity. Honestly, the film is beautiful and exciting And I did not expect that Ultra Company would be doing Arab work and from the UAE. I wish many business of this quality in the coming near future with exciting stories. Thank you everyone.

Smoking and driving while wearing headgear. Knew this would be very good.
I got here from tiktok, where's my people ? Indonesian here yuhuuuuuuu. Great movies !
In the start of the video I saw makr in Urdu I thought o my video is in Urdu but it was in Arabic 😂😂😂welldone alter great job.lottttts of love from Pakistan 🇵🇰♥️
looks cooler in this style
i like this one...it's pretty different from the others
We always like to find new visions and perspectives in horror, and we think MAKR is a brilliant new vision and introduction to Hana Kazim's voice. We can't wait to see what she does next.
@@WatchALTER it is certainly a brilliant new vision
Brilliant! Really good everything, twists a plenty and shows excellent homage to horror not needing CGI, camp, splatter, or even common tongue. Thanks for showcasing that what horrifies is universal. Props to everyone involved for this most provoking true horror piece.
thatunconsciousguy thank you very much 🙏🏼 glad you liked it ☺️
Although I'm neither Muslim nor religious, there's a verse in Quran which is kinda cool by itself.
مکرو و مکرالله، والله خیر الماکرین.
MAKR means deception
thank you for being honest
From Syria 💕 Islam is amazing religion but some people make the picture bad.
The videography is fantastic! So professional and with a very deep meaning. Loved it! ♥

This speaks so much truth! We are but a small door in a big darkness unless we stop playing with God and His Name.
I have been there .
We humans are a very small part unless we wake up...
This is not about religion, this is about the truth.
I am not a Muslim, but God is God. We sometimes forget what life is about. We will all die and then face our creator.
Many people say there is no such thing, but even though I understand science and mostly because of it I must know that we are only in a small part of reality. The light goes on. Make right here in this little bit that we now know and you will not stand in a dark universe to be judged. Feeling very small... in a doorway...
God exist or not but we should do good with all living beings
Aye bruh. It's just a movie on RUclips lol.
I’m a Pagan, so I believe in multiple gods, though none necessarily had a hand in creating us. Rather, they guide us. This remains true for any god you may believe in, regardless of your beliefs of creation.
I’m of the belief that we are all one collective soul separated into billions of pieces; all connected, all shaped by each other’s experiences. Every single being is intertwined, and I believe that bond we all intrinsically share, recycled into each new life, is far more powerful than we realize. Remember, you are connected to every single being surrounding you, and your decisions (both good and bad) matter beyond your individual self. You are the people around you, and they are you.
Selfishness is the death of the soul, so be kind to others and care for them with the same passion you care for yourself. Our faiths and beliefs should not separate us - your faith is my faith, and my faith is yours.
Brilliant horror short! I would love to see more of this. The oriental culture is so interesting and you bring it on point as always, ALTER. Loved it!
Himmelsdieb glad you liked it ☺️
@@hanakazim2892 I really did! I like the way how the movie kept the balance of staying realistic and was playing with the mind of the protagonist. Without using any big show effects. It's so interesting what you as a person can see and feel only if your mind goes 'crazy'. And of course also a big thanks for you and your team, too for creating this masterpiece! I hope to see more from you! :)
Arab movie makers are on a different lvl. Ive never seen a horror movie about Ruqyah or islam in general with so much creative and productive value.
At first I thought they are misrepresenting our islam with that bearded man who cheats but the whole video changed my thought 180 degree. Thanks
This is really chilling, especially this involves faith.
Do the people think that they will be left to say, "We believe" and they will not be tried? Surah Al-'Ankabut. He was a fake from the start. Because he did not recited any of the verses from the Kitab that are used for Ruqyah Shariah.. Another top notch scary short ALTER. Keep it up..
Definitely the first thing muslims realize. But he could still be a fraud even if he recited all the verses without faith. Only this short will be a religious movie instead of horror lol
One of your best short films
sapa yg kesini gara2 tweet yg rame di twitter
اخيرا فيلم عربي قصير، انا اصبحت مدمنة على

This one was really good Nice to see Alter working with Djinns waiting for an Alter Skin walker or Wendigo story!
I've been watching the content of this channel for a long time and I have to admit that it's the first time i get surprised by such a movie, that was great work.
الآن للأمانة لم أكن أتوقع أن القناة ممكن أن تشارك أعمال عربية
الفلم رائع و مثير
أتمنى رؤية المزيد من الأعمال العربية بهذه القناة
هذه اول مرة لي كمان
Zineddine Blacko صحيح انا اول مرة اشوف فيلم عربي بهذه القناة و فرحت باهتمامهم للثقافة العربية
بالضبط 😐
ياريت يزيدو ينزلو أعمال عربية

If I was stuck in that apartment forever, the first thing I would do is take down that clock. The clock creeped me out.
I'm speechless... First for being the first who comments ಥ‿ಥ and second for the short movie. Like for real it has a really good story loved it ❤
Thank you so much! :)
Why is your comment from 4 weeks ago?? This was just posted yesterday. Just curious.
@@deeb8282 it was posted in a playlist called exclusive before they publish it¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I agree 😌
He got stuck with his Karma, good one Alter 💕
I'm sorry but I didn't get what's going on after that guy got stabbed
I have seen it in real life twice in my entire life! The 2nd time was a funeral farewell for a niece in the mosque, I was asked if I wanted to help wash the body, but I refused, but after it was ready, it was brought back to the hall for visitors when my turn came, she turned in the coffin literally her face on the other side. I said out loud, did you see that too, so many people were there and no one else saw it happen but me. Because a few days before her death she really wanted to meet me, but I was not in affection then. Very Strange but very True!
Awesome work! You just earned yourself a subscriber!
Excellent! More Arabian short horror films plsss

Brilliant. Very thought provoking.
We all need money anyway but when it come to this it's a different story
I’ve been searching Indonesian horror, and there is SO much good stuff out there !! And I LIKE that I’m finding lots of 20 minute films. I’m not used to that being a standard movie length.
2:40 getting heavy Peter Venkman vibes from this guy. (When he charges 5000 dollars to remove Slimer from the hotel in Ghostbusters one and makes it sound like a discount)
Man, that was really good. Love how it's not clear just who is posessed when. Super spooky for sure.
THIS ONE WAS SOOOO FREAKING GOOD ! This is my favorite one 😍 it had me alittle creeped out! I love it !! At first my favorite one was when the lady was in the room with a dead body & even time the lights went out the dead women moved 😂😂 ! But this was just yesssssss !!
I am sorry for Hollywood, because the chains like ALTER and the others of the same kind, are currently exploiting the best ideas or scenarios in the horror genre. It will be difficult for Hollywood now to impress us. They will have to be much more creative else it will be just like déjà vu .
Y’all hear the clock stop when he was discussing the Djinn? Woah…
