I watched this hoping all the way through that it would get better. I love B movies but, some of the ones I've seen lately are trying to change my mind. The acting was bad, the storyline was weak and no horror. The Church was the phenomenal.

It's between a 0 and 5. Higher rating if you see this as a C rated movie or a comedy (dark maybe). On the lower side if you see this as those involved are trying to make a serious piece of work here. If this is trying to be a suspenseful film or a horror movie or simply religious propaganda then the writer(s) fail miserably. I dont know if it was translated well or dubbed over poorly so, maybe the blame is on the director and editing team. Scenes would end with you expecting the next scene to carry on smoothly with where they were going. However you get scenes that are thrown in (minor intimations) and the characters in places that we didn't get to see the cause of.
Zero redeeming qualities.

A Waste of Time

Slow moving, bad acting, worse dubbing, and horrible editing, The Grotto. Not the least bit scary; A wanna be horror film. Interestingly, the church is absolutely beautiful and the only reason to take a few minutes of your time to check the film out. Never have I seen such a unique structure. Shown on Amazon Prime.

The few scenes of the cathedral are breathtaking. As for the 'movie' no plot, I assume none of the 'actors' were paid for this travesty. And that so-called 'demonic rape scene, laughable. The only reason to be frightened is that these people might decide to make another waste of time schlock fest.
😂😂😂😂😂!! Very Scary!!

I stumbled upon this movie on Prime, just wanting to watch a horror movie. It's horror alright, but not for the right reasons!! Cheap jump scares, typical horror tropes, predictable story, terrible acting make this movie a waste of time. One mistake I did was, not to check the movie's reviews, and that proved costly to me. An African legend that was supposed bring fear in your nerves, turned out to strike my funny bones !! Some of the scenes were so bad that you will notice the lazy production level. Character arc was never in the dictionary of these makers. Probably, it was made for local audience but why not go for a story that is well rooted in their culture. Just plain and simple bad !!
Zero stars out of 10

Great contradicting dialogue. For example, 5 minutes after setting the guys busted knee, everyone says the guy's leg is doing better. 5 more minutes and their now saying the guy's leg is rotting off from infection. A few minutes after that one of the women are making the guy who set the broken leg up without looking at it, promises when the time comes he will definitely cut the guy's leg off. This is definitely a comedy to say the least. Earlier when the cave collapsed, one of the guys says "Well the cave already collapsed so there's no way it's going to collapse anymore. It's definitely finished collapsing!" If I was there I would have punched the idiot in the face for making such a stupid statement. Then at some point the guide said right after the cave collapsed, in so many words "Hey we need to be careful about conserving our water, we just lost a third of our water!" Then later on they said, "We have enough water to last us for at least 5 days!" If you're not busy and you have 99 minutes to spare for a good laugh, then go ahead, get some good CBD products and some margaritas and sit back with some good friends and get ready to laugh your asses off! This movie has the potential of being funny HaHa or ROFLMFAO if you pay attention to the funny twists and turns in the dialogue. Kind of has a 'ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW' vibe to it after the first margarita and CBD gummie session!!
