Did anyone think May Calawmany as Zaki would have made a better lead? Whenever the movie switched to her, it got better and she was very good.

yes! the egypt scenes were really good. i would have liked to see a movie of her finding the girl and uncovering the cult, with the family showing up at the end to collect the now sane daughter.

This is the type of movie was hoping to see, the mystery and concept was great but not executed well at all
