Sijjin

Sooo um i just watched Sijjin yesterday,anddd honestly, it was a major letdown. The plot is all over the place, like it couldn't decide if it wanted to be a horror or a thriller. The acting? Nah, it was pretty cringy, felt like everyone was just going through the motions. And don't even get me started on the special effects ,they looked super cheap and didn't add anything to the story. It's like they tried to be spooky but ended up being kinda laughable instead. Not worth the hype, honestly.

Yeah i just didn't feel any fear or anything while watching this, it was just flat. Not really interesting to me.

First of all the movie was very good It is also a source of pride that it is based on a Turkish horror series called Siccin. Turkish horror movies are usually shot on djinn anyway For him, the movie is scary because it is close to the Turkish movie. A movie full of sensible and beautiful actorsEverything is perfect, changing some scenes makes sense. There was a lot of sadness and drama too Be sure to watch the movie it's really good from start to finish.

I liked it as much as the movie Siccin It's not a waste of time. A breathtaking film from start to finish.

I wonder if there will be a sequel.

I really enjoyed the overall flow and pacing of the film-the way the story unfolds and gradually develops is genuinely engaging and keeps you hooked. There's a clear sense of progression that builds suspense effectively. However, I have to say, at a certain point, things take a seriously nasty turn. The level of gore and disturbing content goes beyond unsettling-it becomes absolutely revolting, to the point of being almost unbearable to watch. It's intense in a way that feels excessive and hard to stomach. That said, if you're into horror and can handle extreme content, it's still a pretty solid horror movie overall. The atmosphere is creepy, the tension is well-crafted, and the disturbing elements do serve the story, even if they go a bit overboard.

I do not understand what the director wishes to achieve through this adaption. Are you implying that one should not pray because it's not going to help them from evil doings? Because that's exactly what you are doing, ever since the released of Makmun series. You are putting fear into people that if they perform their prayer alone, they might as well have this particular evil praying with them too. Even if this exists, do you have to make a big deal out of this? By spreading more fear than encouraging them to actually praying? Shame on the director who thinks this is a masterpiece. Because no.

"Sijjin" unfortunately did not resonate with me. As a Muslim, I found several aspects of the film deeply problematic.

Firstly, the poster itself felt off-putting, with imagery that leaned heavily into dark and ominous vibes. It didn't entice me to delve deeper, instead raising concerns about the film's potential disrespect for my faith.

Secondly, the inclusion of black magic as a central theme was a major turn-off. Black magic is strictly forbidden in Islam, and its portrayal in the film felt exploitative and sensationalized. This not only felt disrespectful but also inaccurate, failing to represent the true essence of Islamic beliefs and practices.

While I cannot speak for everyone, I believe "Sijjin" missed the mark in its handling of sensitive religious themes. It would have benefited greatly from a more nuanced and respectful approach to Islam, both visually and narratively.
