The children of many families in the 1980s are well behaved. The fear of Willy Willy is the beginning of wisdom and good behaviours. Chai!, grin

I remember Pot of Life. I think it was like a series.

Can you remember Abiku? That ogbanje girl... That was also very scary. Then there was Lynx or so, about one cat like that. And I remember one very horror movie, Evil Encounter or so... It used to scare the sh*t out of me. The bad guy wore dark shades. All these are from the 80s.


I remember Evil Encounter - I think it was on LTV (Lagos Weekend Television) Channel 8 those days around 1984/85

It was very scary that year and NTA didn't do well by showing it at midnight which made it more scary.

I watched it recently and noticed how poor filming was back then in Nigeria compared to today. The visuals and audio are of very poor quality. We have come a long way in the filming industry.

Nostalgic!


We will watch today's movie in twenty , thirty years time and be asking ourselves how bad the quality is. This is life. Life goes on

I can't remember what channel showed it, all I know is it was really scare to me at that age. That's why I can still remember the name. I wish there was a place to watch these old movies/series.

willie willie was no the first - horror movie in Nigeria

I think it was "POT OF LIFE" which was produced by NTA Benin grin grin grin around 1981/82

If you see what "Aimiuwu" - the virgin girl went through when going to the "Land of the dead" to retrieve the pot of life for the sick Oba

you will know that "willie willie" dey learn

----- you will see the casket open, "ENTER MEEEEEEEEE ENTER MEEEEEEEEE..... I AM RICHER THAN YOU FATHER"

grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin when you see skeleton dey talk you go piss for body grin grin grin as a kid then - you will freeze .. and the songs too

was not helping matters ..... grin grin grin grin


O YES!

POT OF LIFE!!

I REMEMBER IT NOW O!

SCARED ME TO MY BONES.

That was the period ppl combined songs, dance, and poetry with film making. Creativity was at another level.
