"They shall have a bed of hell-fire ... thus do we reward the unjust"

This is one of the finest horror films I have seen in a long time. It is terrifying and heartbreaking.

The musical score and cinematography are brilliant. The use of color, and shadow are masterful. The acting is excellent.

The tension is so great that the quite tame scary parts are nearly unbearable.

Some of the imagery is horrific.

I know that I am experiencing a great horror film when I need to take a rest period at some point and then return to it. I did that with "The Exorcist" and "Suspiria" and I had to do that with this film.

Unfortunately, like so many horror films, the ending seems like an afterthought. Very disappointing. I wish the film makers put as much thought and creativity into the ending as they had the rest of the film.

This film will get neither the recognition, nor the distribution it deserves given the theme and the politics of abortion in the mainstream film industry. Too bad. Thank you to Pathfinder Pictures for making this film available on DVD.

This is a "must see - not to be missed" film for the fan of Gothic Horror.

the film is not bad film but, have a postmodern story. lots of people don't wanna see these stories. because. it is hard too think true, looking film on wrong side and like this etc. first you can try to, lose all thinks and watch film. in this time you can find news thinks on film. and also film equal on Muslim story. lots of other peoples don't think the true world. the film mean unknown people some times, do good work sometimes bad... in Muslim life have heaven and hell. bad peoples go to hell but good peoples go to heaven. but in the film, people stay wait. they do good or bad. the film is unknown again. like a depression... best is no thinks any word and watch film. it is impressive.

Murat Yldirim for this movie is winner the Altin Portugal

I watched this movie at the theater when it first came out and still to this day i remember how bad it was. I can't believe they dared to make two more movies.

I watched it 'till the end only for my friends' sake who kept hoping things would get better and even she was disappointed at the end.

Bad acting, bad scripting, bad jump scares.. i wonder if anyone was scared at the water bottle scene.. plus the christian elements etc was too cheesy. No sane person can call this a masterpiece; not then, not now, not ever.

It's sad how turkish cinema has yet to discover anatolian and turkish scary stories and tales.

The only positive thing i have to say about this movie is the choice of music. Hayko cepkin is an awesome artist, i can't praise him enough.

Not a bad horror movie. I watch a lot of horror movies, and this one seems to be inspired from a few of them. It reminds me Japanese horror movies. Overall, it is a good movie. Special effects could be better, but Turkish movie industry is not that advanced yet. I have looked at the comments and most of the people have not even seen the movie.. One of them voted 1 because he thinks it is about the old TV show Alf. It is far from being the worst movie as some suggest. Just think this way, how many Turkish horror movies are there out there? From the few, how would you rate this. Do not compare it to American horror movies. Compare it to other Turkish horror movies.
