Movie Scene
The Kenyan government was so scared by a Kenyan made horror movie they decided to ban it. When producer Joseph Kinuthia created his movie he only wanted to give people a taste of horror Kenyan Style.
His movie titled Otto the blood bath is a story about an Old man who comes back to haunt his children after they do not honour his death bed wishes. Watch a snippet here.
The question is with the government allowing literary hundreds of Movies (including horror ones) to enter the country from Hollywood and Nollywood why should it stifle its own homegrown industry.
Perhaps because the censorship board which banned the movie must have been completely horrified by Kinuthia’s production, which may have felt more closer to home than the normal western movies which exaggarate horror to unbelievable extremes.
This is my theory. What is yours?
