Filmmaker, Olatunbosun Amao, has unveiled a dark first look at Troublous Weekend, his feature film directorial debut.
The creepy first images tease the film’s plot with leads AMVCA-winning actor Stan Nze and Anthony Monjaro in what looks like they have finally come face to face with the dangers lurking around.
Set on the gripping tale of a couple’s weekend getaway, Troublous Weekend follows mysterious events that force them to fight for their lives from enemies within.
Shot last December, the upcoming title, according to Amao, experiments with key elements of the thriller and horror genres.

“Troublous Weekend will keep the audience on the edge of their seats, it’s exciting and definitely unforgettable.”
