Dabbe 5: Curse of the Jinn

I heard a lot about the Turkish Dabbe franchise and I had nr 5 for years in my to watch list on Netflix and now I finally had the time to take a look at it. Must say, it wasn't that bad after all. First you have to got used to the way of acting, the Turkish language and of course the Muslim world of belief. And even there we have a Satan and possession and this is what this flick is all about. Not bad at all, extreme flashy editing. A lot of creepy moments and a good script. Maybe over 2 hours is a bit too long but I never found a dull moment. For the geeks it's one to discover but be open-minded to the Turkish world. Gore 0,5/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 2,5/5 Comedy 0/5

This movie is really something. There were so many random scenes where I questioned the direction and production. There is a scene for example when Dilek and Harun are entering a house, and there's a pack of stray dogs chasing a cow. Seems like a blooper and even the Dilek actress seems confused like is this part of the script? The only other Dabbe I have seen is the first instalment and that was definitely scarier. Overall, really funny movie, with some gruesome scenes if you are into bloodshed and gore. The special effects/ graphics are Mashallah, and the acting too is brilliant (please note the sarcasm).

This is the best horror movie I've ever seen...the Story & screenplay was really interesting..the acting was quite good and there are many twist & turns.....the fear factor was really terrifying....but I got some negative thoughts , the movie was so long (02:12:55)....there were a little boring in the middle.....but after 1hr of the movie , the movie was really speed as jet...But this movie was interesting.....there were some ritual scenes in the movie that was quite interesting.....But I found a huge mistake in this movie , was why this movie contains many characters.....but still this one is good.

What this film may lack in Hollywood action it makes up for in sheer Turkish focus. A well acted film that is genuinly scarey and well worth a watch. Bit long however...

Decent story but the scares are awful. So many screams and shouts and its ear piercing. What a waste, the story is decent but the execution not so much.

After all those Paranormal activity movies, finally back to "normal" horror. Though the shrieking (annoying) sounds remain ... not something I really look forward to or enjoy - of course they are not meant to be enjoyed, but you're catching my drift hopefully. I didn't think too much while I was watching it, but I reckon the twists this has in store are quite predictable. Overall nicely told and a nice pace. With an annoying husband amogst other annoying characters. If you can oversee the flaws, the movie can be entertaining enough to be enjoyed. Simple ending included.

Theme is indeed good and that saves this film to a large extent. Performances are also commendable. If you do not mind time which is extraordinarily stretched and if you are game for gore, go for it.
