I think this film is an innovative approach to its genre. I think a lot of the details in the scenes (especially the lighting, darkness used in the "exorcism" scene, the religious rituals, the mute scenes in the first part-Germany, the repetitions) are considerably and consciously put. I really liked the sound design and especially thrilled by the end scene. I also think that the destructive comments put here are not objective and accurate. I think these comment-owners are not actual cinema audience or viewer, moreover it looks like they have an alter motive or a hidden agenda. Therefore to support this attitude towards making Turkish horror a genre, which i believe that must be done, i voted 10.
I watched the film and I liked it.Because this movie is not identical to other Turkish horrors.Subject is interesting,acting is surprisingly good and the directing is quite successful.And also this subject is very gruesome for Muslim audiences.Because there are a lot of legends and tales about Cins in Turkish Culture.In the first part of the movie many questions are taking shape in the watcher's mind.And all the questions are answered by the director in the second part of the movie.The leading actor Burak Özçivit is pretty successful.The special effects are remarkable.And the sequence of events in the movie are inspired by true events. At last everybody must see this film..
Some kiddies who are lack of cinema culture can't review this masterpiece that harshly because this movie is superior to not only American horror films but also Japan and Korean films.Surely,An American film company is going to buy script to adapt it to USA.forget all you have seen so far,because this is film is completely a new experience,a fresh breath from Magnificent Turkish cinema industry,a unique contribution to horror genre.I am pretty sure those criticizers typed their merciless reviews in fear and deep horror owing to the deep effect of the movie.I give it 10 out of 10.After seeing this film,you can't stop looking back over your shoulder or at dark corners.
In film business, everybody knows how hard it is to put the film in the can and deliver good results. After reading these harsh reviews, I looked to the other cinema review websites in Turkey if other users think the same way. To my surprise, I found the exact reviews in Turkish word by word. This shows, the reviews of these films are so far written not because the film is bad but some people want to bash it for a reason.
Lastly, the film has a budget of 1 million dollars. For Hollywood, it is a joke to shoot a film that is decent for that price. I think in some parts, it is doing a good job. I give 6 out of 10.

"Musallat" is a well written and good fictioned Turkish horror movie.I think it's unique among other genre movies shot in Turkey.
As being the first movie focusing hugely good on the Islamic exorcism as main theme,it includes also an unusual love story beyond two worlds.The magnetism of the movie is cruel as the story,so we see the characters start to "freefall" into the darkening dynamics of the unknown.
I might say that the chemistry of the visual direction and sound work used in the film are also on a high level.I cannot easily compare these specifications with the other movie examples in Turkish genre cinema.
I think the negativity of this movie is coming up from the dialog scenes between the main character and his best friend in Germany because they look a bit synthetic.
Congratulations and greetings to all the people who worked for this film.
