Hbiba

About This Movie

So, 'Hbiba' kinda caught me off guard. It's this horror-thriller that dives into the darker side of social media fame through Khaoula, an influencer who seems to have it all—until the nightmares start. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but that’s part of the vibe, right? The trip to Tabarka and Ain Drahem starts off as this bright escape but quickly turns into a descent into eerie encounters and forbidden places. It’s atmospheric, with practical effects that bring a gnarly realism, and the performances, particularly by Khaoula, add a rawness to the nightmare she’s living. There’s this blend of modern anxieties and classic horror motifs that makes it stand out a tad more than your average flick of this genre.
