Die Kreatur

The original story is very skillfully combined with local culture and religion. The elements that are different from the original one make it feels like they serve this harmony. I also think that the changes do not harm the sub-messages of the text, on the contrary, they strengthen them from different angles. I've never felt the need to praise the acting in my previous comments. The acting of Erkan Kolçak Köstendil, who plays Ihsan, and the quality of the stage designs are the biggest strength of the work after the original text. The work contains a narrative about being human with all its fantastic and religious elements. People who do this brilliantly have always brought us the most valuable works of the fantasy genre.

A minisaga of a creature that tells the story of our mankind better than all other humans. Although the concept is taken from Frankenstein, it's got a whole another plot. We see love, sadness, disappointment, anger, hatred, hope, and most importantly, greed. Indeed, the story is all about our greed.

The acting of all leading characters are satisfying, especially of Erkan Kolçak Köstendil. However, the dialogues are sometimes banal and disconnected. The storytelling could be improved by enriching the story through historical myths and character backgrounds rather than several situations that the protagonist faces throughout different episodes.

All in all, the most outstanding Turkish production of Netflix so far.

I am glad that Turkish producers are trying new ways to tell stories about horror and mystery, other than bad spirits which goes on of years (siccin, bokcin). I've read the book and loved how the story dissolves in later episodes. Saw some minor light problems, maybe because i also do YouTube shootings it caught my eye. Loved the costumes and decors which i think reflects the spirit of the era pretty well. Also the social structures are done well. Glad to see someone whos putting effort and work into music composing, it felt way different compared to other local productions. I wish the episodes were longer.

One of the best serie i have watched. I wasnt expecting something this strong in story. I thought its another Frankenstein act but its much more than that. Acting, story, reflections of personalities and choices, familial bonds , ignorances of masses and many other emotions you feel regarding human behaviour, visuals, depth... This is not a fantasy genre for sure, it has those elements yes but its bare minimum. This serie is more like psychology, human nature and choices. I also loved the fact that the main character is not a purely nice guy and he is not bad either. He is literally young who learns through experience, he starts as selfish teenager but somehow finds his worth in the end. Briefly fantastic job. Its definitely worth warching.

If you have the patience, the last two episodes of the series are truly incredible! The only downside is the presence of a young child, who, if ignored, can easily lead you to binge-watch all the episodes in a single day. Nevertheless, the series delivers a powerful message about love and humanity, serving as a poignant reminder of the significance of family bonds. Moreover, it imparts a valuable lesson on the prevalence of arrogance over scientific knowledge in life's intricate tapestry. Through its narrative, 'Patient' skillfully illustrates how sometimes, despite the leaps and bounds made in scientific understanding, human hubris can still overshadow progress. The characters in the series are brilliantly portrayed, each contributing a unique dimension to the overarching storyline. Their interactions are delicately woven, providing viewers with moments of both heartwarming tenderness and gut-wrenching conflict. The cinematography is nothing short of breathtaking, with every frame meticulously composed to evoke emotion and immerse the audience in the world of the characters. The attention to detail in set design and costume adds depth to the narrative, further enhancing the viewer's experience. In addition, the soundtrack deserves special mention. It expertly underscores the emotional highs and lows, effectively drawing viewers deeper into the unfolding drama. The music becomes an integral part of the storytelling, complementing the actors' performances and enhancing the overall impact of the series.
