A really interesting cautionary tale.

Every line of dialogue is stilted, every theme is spelled out in laboriously literal terms, and the characters never feel even close to human.

AfrAId‘s cultish thread actually becomes its most compelling for a time... But none of these threads are quite seen through. They’re often just hinted at and left largely unexplored, cut off, or resolved before much can be made of them.

AfrAId is the latest Blumhouse release that feels like a script for a horror short that got a few million bucks to make a quick weekend profit. Not even the AI feels like it wants to be here as we go through a cliche family drama with some jump scares.

Won’t shock, awe, entertain or make anyone “AfrAId.”
