Magi (2016)
8/10
Surprisingly effective gloom

I loved this movie and the story line. It is a great horror movie that keeps you on your seat wondering what is gonna happen next.

Also The score is absolutely amazing too in its grating terror.

The base of film is about ancient Mesopotamian mythological creatures and their creepy demons; The Jinns!

Jinn is a word derived from an Arabic root which means to 'conceal' or 'cover with darkness';

This film is a true horror movie that isn't a cheap thrill slasher/gore/shock fest with little to no storyline.

However, if you're an ethnic-horror film fan and enjoy a good story more than anything else, this is a movie you should watch. It is a slow burning, suspenseful and atmospheric film shot in muted tones. I have to say that Magi is Not your typical exorcism movie. You may think that as you first watch but it has a surprising twist. Most unique of its genre... I really enjoyed the ending.
