About this listen
The following contains mature content and language some may find offensive. Listener discretion is advised.
When the sacred is defiled, darkness awakens.
The Wallace family's vacation to a luxury game reserve in Zimbabwe becomes a living nightmare in this heart-stopping psychological thriller from visionary writer/director Nyasha Hatendi. Starring Caleb McLaughlin (Stranger Things, The Deliverance), who delivers a gripping performance in his Audible debut, Sacrilege: Curse of the Mbirwi (mBeerwee) plunges listeners into a world where ancient spirits collide with inner wounds and family secrets are as deadly as the strange beasts that stalk the savanna.
Lost in his headphones, self-absorbed teen Dashon Wallace (McLaughlin) never imagined that a strained family trip meant to bring everyone closer could unravel so completely. But when he unwittingly desecrates hallowed ground, he unleashes the Mbirwi, a vengeful entity born from centuries of colonial oppression. As possessed wildlife and shape-shifting horrors close in, Dashon must confront not only the supernatural threat but also the horrors of his own past to save what remains of his family.
Presented in spectacular Dolby Atmos, Sacrilege blends pulse-pounding suspense with profound explorations of identity and privilege to deliver a thriller as thought-provoking as it is terrifying. With its lush sound design and sensational ensemble cast, Sacrilege redefines the boundaries of audio storytelling, drawing listeners into an immersive experience they will not soon forget.

TBH it follows the same path as the perspectives/representations it (and Hatendi) criticise. A lot of broken promises and an inability to to actually let the audience (or characters) fend for themselves in a starkly harmless place.

I nearly gave up halfway in, because the annoying family falsely laughing at non funny things was grating.
The whole “Africa” ancestors / ghosts thing (I won’t say more cos spoilers) - it is the kind of story that could not be written by white people as it would be deemed stereotypical, racist and wrong.
It still seems stereotypical and wrong to me. Also very gory. Also oddly boring and annoying in places.
It got better towards the end. Not sure the actual ending was worth the time though (again would love to elaborate but won’t cos spoilers)
Huge cast
