Featured review
Right, well I was not familiar with the "Dabbe" or "D@bbe" movie franchise, prior to late in 2022 as I happened to stumble upon them. I had the opportunity to sit down and watch the 2009 "D@bbe 2" movie, and opted to do so without knowing what I was in for. All I knew was that it was a Turkish horror movie, and since I've never seen a Turkish movie, of course I wanted to watch this movie from writer and director Hasan Karacadag.
I made it 50 minutes into the 85 minutes runtime, then I just gave up. This movie is definitely one of the worst horror movies I have ever stumbled upon. Someone should have told writer and director Hasan Karacadag that less is more. The director was constantly bombarding the audience with something sinister or supernatural. I kid you not when I say that every single scene had something unseen moving about, skulking or lurking, or had some ominous and foreboding darkness creeping in. It was just too much. It made the movie into a joke and stripped every single aspect of horror away from it. It was just difficult to sit there and watch it and having to take the movie serious as a horror movie.
The character gallery in "D@bbe 2" just made little sense. I mean, whom in the right mind would just shrug off all those supernatural events as being nothing and continue on with the daily lives? And I have to say that the movie didn't exactly have the most interesting or exciting of characters milling about.
Needless to say that since "D@bbe 2" was the first Turkish movie I have seen, then I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble. However, I can't claim that I was impressed with the performances that I witnessed here.
"D@bbe 2" was a swing and a miss. The constant bombardment of something sinister or supernatural in every single scene was just ridiculous. And after having suffered through 50 minutes of "D@bbe 2", I have to say that I am not going to bother with tracking down the first movie, nor am I going to bother with parts three through six either.
My rating of "D@bbe 2" lands on a one out of ten stars.
