Omar, Pray for the Prophet
In "Omar, Pray for the Prophet," Omar Hosni takes on the chilling role of a serial killer in a haunting tale of suspense and survival. Directed by Bader al-Hakami, the music video follows the gripping journey of a trapped victim, desperately trying to escape the sinister clutches of Omar's terrifying lair. With each prayer, the tension escalates, blending faith and fear into a nightmarish struggle for survival. As the shadows close in, will faith provide salvation, or will darkness prevail?

Bader al-Hakami is a first-time Saudi director with a passion for immersive storytelling. His debut, Omar, Pray for the Prophet, blends suspense and horror with themes of faith and survival, marking his entry into the world of filmmaking.
Omar, Pray for the Prophet is a story that explores the intersection of fear, faith, and survival. Through a tense and unsettling atmosphere, I aimed to create a visual experience that resonates deeply with the audience. My goal is to push boundaries in Saudi cinema, crafting narratives that leave a lasting impact.
