The year 2017 has seen major achievements in the Ghana Movie Industry with several movies produced and many awards won both locally and internationally.
However, producers and directors seem to know no rest as Merit Movies prepares to release their latest movie titled ‘Asylum is Down’ which threatens to stop the shine of all other comic movies premiered yearlong in December.
When love finds its way into a psychiatric hospital and joins the hearts of two inmates, (a lunatic and a mental patient) with the man determined at all cost to prove his love to his source of joy, how sentimental can a madman get?
This is the story of Kwadee, the most mischievous mental patient in the Kumasi psychiatric hospital who finds himself in a bank to cash out a cheque he had stolen from a doctor in the quest to buy his lunatic lover a gift.
Fortune eludes him when the bank gets under attack by armed robbers moments after his entry to the banking hall. It is now a matter of madness display of two mentally sick men (kalybos and Bismark the Joke), the fear and grief of bankers and customers at gunpoint and the frustration of a gang of armed robbers whose patience keeps running out with the stupidity displayed by the mad men.
Would the armed robbers be successful with the robbery or would the mental patients succeed with their plans or perhaps could there be a brand new twist to the whole story? You can only find out when you watch the full movie.
Asylum is Down, a movie produced by Dr. Cornelius Addo is directed by Dayan Fields, starring Zack Orji, Kalybos, Adjetey Anang, Yaw Dabo, Bismark the Joke, Moeshaboduong and Benedicta Gafah among others.
The movie, a romantic comedy, would be premiered on the 29th of December, 2017 at the KNUST CCB Auditorium and on the 30th of December,2017 at The Silverbird Cinema, Westhills Mall in Accra.
Tickets are available at Poku Trading, Ababio Express, Melcom,Aboude Fast Foods, Plus 2 Pub, Rose Tree Hotel, Luv FM and YFM in Kumasi as well as Accra Mall, Westhills Mall, Junction Mall,A&C Mall and Achimota Mall in Accra. This movie is certainly what you need to enter the new year with as a fan of romantic comedy or comedy in its pure nature. When you have a cast of Kalybos, Bismark the Joke and Yaw Dabo in a movie of this nature, you know your ribs would definitely need repairs when all is said and done. See you there!
