          A Stunningly Effective Horror Film; Dabbe:A Djinn Incident!

          This is the real deal for 'found footage' horror fans. I know that,Horror films are something you really have to want to enjoy and yes This film really scared me!I went to the theater this weekend and saw it. I must say it is a great Turkish horror movie. The terror starts slow, develops the characters well, and progressively gets more suspenseful until it ends with it's shocking finale. Shortly the story is about a night invisible djinn(demon)stalker and a married sleepwalker woman,her husband,her daughter! Paranormal Activity clearly inspired this film,But dabbe:Bir Cin vakasi is easily 10 times more frightening than paranormal activity! As the same style;The entire thing is shot with a home video camera and some fixed security home cameras! The first question from the movie is;'Why djinns(demons) stalk people,and What is their reason of suddenly start to stalking an innocent woman? Then The movie ask another question to the audiences ;'Is Sleep walking a medical problem or its about djinns...?'Did you ever Wonder what Happens While You Sleep.....? Think about that;'Are Djinn vulnerable to magic?' Forget the movies that you had seen before like Wishmaster series or Alaaddin about djinns! The popular myth of the Djinn in the bottle is far removed from that of a Djinn and is only popularized in such a fashion by Hollywood and fantasy gamers. Djinns were usually created as malevolent in nature!

          Real Djinns are Real terror!

          ''expect my visit when the darkness comes.The night I think is best for hiding all!''

          Th editing is very interesting you can feel the terror and You know the evil is there but you don't see it, just like normal real life haunting is usually.

          And the The ending....woo-ow...The ending is really scary as hell,brilliant and perfect.of course I won't spoil the ending, I will just say it was the best part of the whole film!

          I recommend this movie but keep sensitive children away. I think it will definitely bring about nightmares. If you are a horror fan and looking for a real terror then watch this film alone in the night in your room and Open the gates to the world of the Djinn.You will feel the Djinns presence in the room with you...!

          Scary

          It was interesting at first, but then she got tired of it, always the same subject, always the same concept.

          Very scary movie recommended

          OMG i thought i'd take my wife to the cinema to watch this cos i heard that it was a pretty good movie, it scared us to bits, you won't be disappointed.

          The story started off slowly but steadily built up to the end. It makes you wonder if this movie will kick off a new generation of hit Turkish scary movies in the coming years by the same director.

          Its by far better than the Paranormal Activity movies that have recently taken the world by storm....... It a shame that this Turkish film will only be screened in some cinemas around the globe.

          This would of been a super hit for the director but only in Turkey.

          Welcome the world of Djinns

          First of all,Without a doubt,Dabbe Bir cin vakası(Dabbe:A case of Djinn)is the scariest Turkish horror movie so far.I had almost no expectation from the movie I thought this was a cheap Paranormal Activity rip-off,but I have to admit I was too wrong.After a slow start,paranormal things begin to happen a family which resides in their home.Sleep walking and magic and djinn relations indicated by the director quite bizarre.The last ten minutes gave me sleepless nights and bad dreams.

          I don't want to spoil anything but the stories told about the Village Derunce and Baby Djinn extremely creepy.I highly recommend this if you are horror fan.Believe me ıf you see this at night,it will stay you a couple of days

          Scary as hell. Don't be alone

          Rarely , a sequel would outshine the original and Dabbe 3 is a fine example of that.Much of the story and the surprises wouldn't be a surprise at all because the Audience would have a fair idea and knowledge to predict the plot and premise of the movie.

          The Grudge, SAW, The Ring, Insidious and Paranormal Activity are examples. What if Paranormal Activity 2 or 3 had been the first movie of the series? Well, Hasan overcomes this pretty huge shortcoming and strikes with a bang with this 3rd movie.

          And the fact that it is based on an actual event just freaked me out. My exposure to this dark world has grown since Dabbe 1.

          Though a fan of the genre, who enjoys a good fright and watches lot of horror movies, I was squirming in terror throughout. I even yelped in fear.

          It is a taut, horrifying and a SOLID horror movie. One of my all-time favorites. I watched it again over last weekend. I had to stop midway and watch the rest on the next day since I was terrified.

          A must-watch if you are a fan of the Genre; It will be in your top 10 list!
