The first time I saw John Okafor a.k.a Mr. Ibu was in a 99/00 movie. I can't remember the title, but I recall Segun Arinze starring in that same movie and wearing this old school wig. Who recalls this movie?

I have watched all the movies the OP mentioned nollywood use to make sense that year.
There is this movie with teju baby face,RMD, bimbo akintola and bukky ajayi it addresses grave robbing and cultism can't seem to remember the title but it should be on that list.
BACKSTAB this my first naija kung fu movie starred Echaria and Charly boy (played a good villian in that movie)
WITCHES scary as hell.

Rattle snake, violated, hostages, taboo, ikuku, evil passion, igodo, ijele, love without language, true confession, nneka the pretty serpent, fatal desire, etc. those were the days when Nigerian films were really interesting but these days the story lines are all the same and the films very predictable. So sad! Anyway pls am looking for the movie evil passion, does anyone have it so I can make a copy or buy?
Re: 20 Nollywood Movies We Will Never Forget by Adamaranma: 12:27pm On Nov 14, 2013
