An interesting but flawed horror film dealing with the clash between black Christians and primal African superstitions. A cult priest is drowned when he tries to disrupt a traditional baptism. The young girl, McCarthur, and her mother, Clark, are caught between their Christian beliefs and
Yoruban cultism and the dead priest who comes back to life. A nonexploitative black horror film that suffered at the box office because of poor marketing.
