Siccîn

Islam, like all other religions, believes too much in other life and forms of spirits. The film is good, but there is a problem permanently in the horror Turkish movies, It's repeat itself, Repetition of the idea and religious rites. Cinematography and Performance it's OK, but sound effects is bad. but the idea for me that it is no different from commercial horror films that dealing the same way with the Christian religion

This movie gives a very exotic look on black magic for a change and it shows what happens when you dabble into black magic too much.i think this movie is more pure or impure for that matter,as compared to movies as Wish master and The omen and other movies.not that those movies are bad, but Siccin gives a more realistic look on it I think.i don't know how islamic people feel about this movie,as I can not say that I know much about their cultural believes.i really like the movie a lot.therefore the high rating.why not.enjoy and be careful what you wish for ;)

I got pulled into seeing this aft enjoying Baskin. Basically the film is similar to Drag Me To Hell with a twist n some creepy atmosphere. A woman visits a soccerer to find out if her cousin is suitable for her to marry to which the soccerer after doing some ritual tells her to be away from the guy. Fast forward 12 years n the guy is married to another female n they have a blind daughter. The wife is mostly busy with household chores, especially tending to her sick mother n blind daughter. After an accidental abortion n the guy's shunning behaviour, the woman once again visits the soccerer with lots of cash n jewellery n asks him to perform black magic on the cousin's wife so that she can be with him. Ther r some annoying repeated pig butchering scenes. The director succeeded in creating a surrealistic atmosphere by jus focusing on few characters n mostly night scenes. The demon scenes were similar to the Asian horror films. I was able to predict the twist but it was conclusive.

It wasn't the ghost that was scary, it was the atmosphere built during the film.. Based on real story. The rituals looks so realistic. One of the best horror films in my opinion.

I just started watching Turkish horror & I am obsessed! Thanks to NETFLIX I got to watch Dabbe 2 & 6. I was impressed. Then I saw this older gem. Just like English possession movies which uses Christian or Judaism themes, Islamic religious tones used a lot in Turkish horror. The result is mind boggling creepy. The amount of gore is decent & the jump scares are minimal. The acting & storyline are above all that. I do think that the movie ends abruptly, not that its a bad thing but I could use a couple of extra horrifying minutes. When it was stated that they changed the original names of characters, does that mean this is inspired from a real story? But most of these movies claim that. I'm not convinced.. Nah..
