D@bbe 2

Actually Turkish horror films are awful.But Turkish horror filmmaker Hasan Karacadag's second effort(semum) was a brilliant movie for Turkish film industry.Dabbe 2 is new horror from same director.The storyline of this part is interesting.OK,I know it is not exactly a never-seen-before sort of storyline however some elements were eye catching. In the movie you will see that An apocalyptic Islamic prophecy met strange black smokes.The background sound design is really effective, camera-work and editing is creative.The basic idea of the movie is clever;If suddenly a strange creatures come from beyond of sky what will you do? Do you ask help from god for saving you or are you say to god 'Why you abandoned us? which one?.I think this movie has a potential for a remade with Hollywood.because it reminds me the Hollywood movie 'Signs' from Night Shyamalan.And lastly I have to say this time the special effects are OK for Turkish standards.Take a look it! overall 10/7

Hasan Karacadağ's 2nd movie d@bbe was a hope and a new point of view for Turkish horror films. Japanese horror film style was linked with Turkish beliefs, at the end, there was an impressive job and good start for this kind.

However,d@bbe 2 just aimed to scare with sudden reacts. And they forgot something. There is no subject of the film!!! Full of interesting noises, voices and meaningless screams. you're feeling yourself in a noisy industrial estate...

There will be an end of the series with Decc@l, I hope they are gonna focus on subject and make this film forgotten..

This is a very cheap-looking, badly acted C-grade movie. Besides the cringe-worthy special effects, nothing in the movie is explained or even makes sense.

What in hell are the smoke things supposed to be? Sometimes they leave people alone or just knock them off their feet, but at other times, they turn them into slobbering zombies or kill them outright. And the scenes of Istanbul being attacked looks so fake; like a computer screen-saver.

The teenage girls are way too irritating and one of them especially keeps freaking out and screaming for most of the time she was on the screen. I was actually happy when she turned into a zombie and stopped shrieking.

If this is what the apocalypse looks like, then I would say it lacks a severe deficit of vision and imagination on part of the director.

The lead actress was quite hot though; so one star just for her.

Right, well I was not familiar with the "Dabbe" or "D@bbe" movie franchise, prior to late in 2022 as I happened to stumble upon them. I had the opportunity to sit down and watch the 2009 "D@bbe 2" movie, and opted to do so without knowing what I was in for. All I knew was that it was a Turkish horror movie, and since I've never seen a Turkish movie, of course I wanted to watch this movie from writer and director Hasan Karacadag.

I made it 50 minutes into the 85 minutes runtime, then I just gave up. This movie is definitely one of the worst horror movies I have ever stumbled upon. Someone should have told writer and director Hasan Karacadag that less is more. The director was constantly bombarding the audience with something sinister or supernatural. I kid you not when I say that every single scene had something unseen moving about, skulking or lurking, or had some ominous and foreboding darkness creeping in. It was just too much. It made the movie into a joke and stripped every single aspect of horror away from it. It was just difficult to sit there and watch it and having to take the movie serious as a horror movie.

The character gallery in "D@bbe 2" just made little sense. I mean, whom in the right mind would just shrug off all those supernatural events as being nothing and continue on with the daily lives? And I have to say that the movie didn't exactly have the most interesting or exciting of characters milling about.

Needless to say that since "D@bbe 2" was the first Turkish movie I have seen, then I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble. However, I can't claim that I was impressed with the performances that I witnessed here.

"D@bbe 2" was a swing and a miss. The constant bombardment of something sinister or supernatural in every single scene was just ridiculous. And after having suffered through 50 minutes of "D@bbe 2", I have to say that I am not going to bother with tracking down the first movie, nor am I going to bother with parts three through six either.

My rating of "D@bbe 2" lands on a one out of ten stars.

This movie had a childish story. Nothing scary happens and you wont find out what was that black stuff. Don't use headphones and try to adjust the volume under 10% because your ears will have 1 tough hour of screams screams and screams. That's it, the movie should be called Scream!!.
