You know what film is an 8/10 or a 9/10? Wolf of Wallstreet. You know what film is not? Magi.
Yet, judging by all of the high star ratings and glowing reviews, you'd think this film may win an Oscar. Wrong. Fake reviews....they are plaguing IMDb.
Many of these reviewers have ONLY reviewed ONE FILM (This film!)
Note to fake reviewers: at least pump in a few reviews for other films so you can appear to be a film fan and not affiliated with the film you are reviewing.
If anyone involved in the film (aka the fake reviewers) is reading this, please take note: YOU ARE RUINING IMDb! It has become a biased, fictitious ratings-land where the average consume cannot get an objective review of a film.
My suggestion: move along to a film that stands on its own merit and doesn't need to trick you into viewing.

A sober production from the director. he has the knack, the edge and the content without the craziness, intensity and shocks that his other movies delivered in the past.
I do recommend this movie if you like religious-occult themed horror films. It's very well directed and written by Hasan Karacadag who has directed so many successful Turkish horror films such as dabbe saga.
Supernatural possession or a murder or a crazy cult or just lies?
Script was nicely layout. The movie is loosely based on the real life (...and some true historical events) about occultism of Adolf Hitler. The story itself is quite good and different. I really enjoyed the horror drama aspect of the movie...The drama keep me in suspense.
The roles are well played by all of the actors. Most are very convincing. I like Michael Madsen and I'm so glad to see him in a Turkish film.He is a real legend! Based on real stuff is always the best and this was...Nice Tie into the struggle between evil and faith.Smart and well done, this is not your average horror film. Still, after watching it, it is fun to review the actual events etc. Watch this one. Great story line, masterful acting, and outstanding effects.

very different format for a demon possession kind of movie. A pregnant American woman who was due to give birth in just days brutally stabbed to death and her sister Olivia researches the subject and is awakened to the terrifying truth that demons exist and are not a good thing. There are many "copy cat" movies about Exorcisms but this is not one of them. Some of you may not agree but something about this movie really gave me that scared to go to bed with the lights off feeling. That doesn't happen often to me. The story is clear, the script is good. The story and film are paced well. The plot also has a very interesting connection to Adolf Hitler and Nazis.
Worth a watch if you like horror movies.

It didn't disappoint me. Very happy with the stylish lighting/acting/dialogue. Tight plot with almost no boring scenes. I usually don't like to see these kinds of films; however, when the movie is based on real life events and/or real life people, I tend to make exceptions. Based on a true story of two sisters but Although this story is based on real events it is still difficult to accept. Entertaining but there are flaws which subtract from the reality of this subject.Not all that scary but it does trip you out at times.Started slow, but ended up being a good suspense horror film.The directing is well done, with many nice shots. One of the better psychological thrillers out there. Wouldn't really classify it as horror though parts were pretty scary.This movie is not something I'd recommend children to see. It has some obviously disturbing images as the special effects are rather convincing. The final moments of the film seem to indicate that the producers are hoping for a sequence.
