Necista krv: Greh predaka

One of the things that is great about this movie is it's production and authentic look of nineteenth century Serbia under the crumbling Ottoman empire, also since this is a Balkan movie it is really close to western production standards. The film is a prequel of well known book called Necista Krv (Impure blood) by Borisav Stankovic, a well known Serbian author. The film show how the local Serbian elite to preserve their status and power colluded with the Ottoman occupiers and made deals with them in secret and even trading their loved ones when times get tough. The main character is man who is unhappy with the state of his family and their many sins that they commit daily of which the whole town talks about (as a saying goes "o cemu carsija prica nego onama"). The family member are mostly "stained" by their lack of control of their emotions as well as their lust to which the main character knows about both keeps things "hush, hush" to preserve their wealth and influence. The Ottoman are shown mostly as evil, both the Serbs are shown to mostly commit the necessary evils to survive (which is partly true historically). In the end the movie has high productions value for Serbian production, the authenticity of dress and morals of that time is greatly done, and it's worth seeing, both not as good as I expected! Recommended.

A Serbian movie that is so far from the historical facts to claim that the Ottoman Empire, famous for its tolerance, did not allow church bells to be rung for 400 years. It's also racist enough to make Turks look like monsters. And it's too erotic look like a porn movie. It is a very bad movie in terms of art, fiction and acting.

It is true that evil strikes. The terrible truth is that this is happening even now. It is also true that evil cannot be prevented by evil. Besides, the film has no other meaning than to earn some money from the current occupiers. The wrong movie at the wrong time is a complete disaster.

I find that placing the Ottoman Vranje in the framework of western genre completely missed the point, as Vranje, a wealthy merchant Ottoman town, was not at all so chaotic and violent a that time. Also there is a lot of orientalism in depicting characters, all of that absolutely not present in the literary work of Stankovic, upon ehich the film is based.

This movie is all about creating fake history. Poor acting and highly racism scene's. This has absolutely nothing to do with the real stories. It should be removed and disbarred from platforms.
