Siccin 5

"Siccin 5" continues its journey into the supernatural with a 6/10 rating from me, and I have to admit, I found it strangely appealing. The acting, while not consistently polished, manages to maintain a sense of eerie authenticity that adds to the film's unsettling nature. The film editing, at times, keeps the suspense alive, although it occasionally falters in pacing. The film's strength lies in its dedication to delving deep into Turkish supernatural folklore, offering a persistent sense of foreboding. The music contributes to the film's overall eerie atmosphere, while the cinematography captures the creeping darkness within ordinary settings. "Siccin 5" builds upon the established themes of the series, emphasizing the notion that meddling with the paranormal comes at a high cost. While it may have its flaws, it remains a captivating addition to the "Siccin" franchise, perfect for those who relish spine-tingling supernatural tales.

This movie was absolutely amazing, I went to see it with my friend, and it scared the living hell out of me. I think the scariest part of the movie was the final scene, I can't get that image out of my head. Don't know why but it was just so scary. Siccin is the best horror series in Turkey.

The fifth part was like others , sane scary moments, same stories, it was the worst horror movie I've ever seen, other parts weren't that bad but this was terrible. Also it was a classic horror movie

It was far below my expectations. A film that I couldn't understand, and even if I did, I couldn't solve it. No matter where you try to hold on, it falls apart. Some scenes were nicely shot, but apart from those, it didn't work for me. The jumpscare scenes were bad-not scary, just disgusting. In horror movies, fluency and flow are very important. This one doesn't flow; it just stands still.

The makeup, on the other hand, was great. You can tell effort was put into it, and it turned out really good. Same with the music. In fact, the end credits were better than the movie itself-at least the music was enjoyable.

As for the acting, I want to highlight Merve Ates. She did a great job, and I especially noticed how much she's improved. Sadly, she was wasted in the wrong movie.

I guess the movie tries to show how dangerous black magic can get, but it just doesn't work. There's only one scene I liked, and that was the final scene. The setting and atmosphere were good. Other than that, there was nothing memorable for me. Without a solid story, a horror film falls apart. I kept waiting for something to happen-but nothing.

This has become my least favorite Siccin film. I can't even believe it's directed by Alper Mestci. Definitely the worst of the series...

Most people would argue that Turkish Horror is depending far too much on local and national values that is restricted with conservative point of view. Thus, would appear silly and goofy to any who is not familiar with the notions. However when done correctly (and densely I might say) it is surely effective. And with Alper Mestçi it is mostly the case. He has shown promise with his first film "Musallat" and he is getting better and better with each movie. Siccin 5 is a movie that is lacking on character build. The motivations are blurry or almost non-sensical, however the machinations of the jump scares, the moody atmosphere certainly makes up for this. The little girl, dream sequences, scary faces popping out left and right might feel like all of this is only done for the sake of horror and not telling a completely coherent story. That is my only beef with this flick. As I have said this is a director always going on the right path, improving himself. But still there is room for improvement on the story telling part. The characters does not appear real, their interactions with the real world is not there. You cannot see the distinction of what is happening on the screen and what is happening in their daily life. So you cannot entirely emphasize the dread they are feeling, you cannot put yourself in their shoes. As I've said give it a chance, at the very least you will find it different and intriguing.
