One of my favorite movies of all time. For me the likes of Lynch, Argento, and Fulci all come to mind with this reality-bending, transdimensional descent into Hell.

A man slowly falls into insanity as he goes against the horror movie version of epstein and his sex slaves

Really bad movie; the worst from the “most disturbing movies” list. Everything is bad: the plot, the actors, dialogues. Also, type “Bruno Diferente” on google.
But thanks anyway for posting this, adm.

a lot of this could work as a great nsfw music video, as a movie its kinda ass.
well shot and decently directed but not very well written.

Fucking superb! Some of the best demonic cult scenes that ever existed. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall perhaps even a frog lol I enjoy movies that show a joyful comradery that ends with the bond of death…shout out to the descent.

As much as I’m not fan of the turks I have to give them credit with this film. It was pretty good. Then again they are a murderous people so I’m not surprised.

Ahhhhhhhhh! This is so fking good!!!!! I love every scene, especially the small subtle scenes of each character to express their quirks here. The unraveling of the mystery is very well-paced, as well as the tension to build for the climax of the story. Even the scenes going for the ending of the movie are also creepy, cool, and unexpected. Their props, costumes, and makeup look realistic. In addition, the tour inside the cult is also very interesting (I wished they extended those scenes though).

(PS: Seyif’s and Yakuv’s scenes during and after the climax are definitely my most favorite scenes here.)

Spoiler:
I wonder what criteria are being used by the cult leader to decide the roles of the captives? a) food, b) blind breeding livestock, c) blind human sex pet, d) human followers that aren’t made blind.

Thanks for sharing this movie~

It’s a pretty amazing film. The first half is surreal and the latter is when the gore starts. I loved this movie. I just wish the boss didn’t die

i didn’t find the film particularly shocking or confronting, the ending was a bit… bleh. however, credit where credit’s due, some of the shots in this movie are genuinely beautiful and creative.

No Carole or tigers but lots of moustaches as you would expect in a Turkish film. An eerie little movie, 3/5 tigers.

My first Turkish film ever I think. Reasonably enjoyable, that little guy creeped me out. Some nice gore and atmospherics made it above average from others of this genre. Agree about the slow start, but it does build up nicely to a good finish.

a lot like mandy, ridiculously slow at the beginning, absolutely perfect for the rest 10/10

Agree with the other person who commented about the first half being slow but I have to say this movie has been the only horror movie to leave me with
this sort of psychological fear ( i have no other words to explain). I felt cery frightened but not like when watching something thats about ghosts or whatever. This was an intense dark feeling that stayed with me for days. I highly recommend ….

Most of the time is spent watching bald men talk about nothing in particular. Then in the last half hour when the action begins, the music and the actors’ reactions imply a lot more than what is actually delivered. Nice try but no cigar.

It wasn’t that bad went from 0 to 300000 as it certainly picked up the pace halfway and towards the end, I feel like they could of explored more into the backstory of the cult and its come up but other than that it was great!

hmm still a little confused about the cult’s ideologies and whatnot but it was great movie over all and Mehmet Cerrahoglu’s character has some very interesting dialogue. I had to write down a few of his lines to remember for later. fantastic film.
