Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

beyoglu I saw this movie for free and I still want my money back. Where to start? This is a low budget film, though on various sites the budget has been listed anywhere from 1,000,000 Turkish lira (about $550,000) to 150,00 Turkish lira. I really hope it wasn't the higher figure, because putting out a film like this for so much money is a crime. The story is a confusing part spin on themes from The Ring. The director spent time in Japan and took film courses there. He doesn't live in Japan as someone wrote, but lives in Istanbul with a Japanese wife, who works as an art director. After the death of Tarik, people close to him begin getting terrifying emails. We never really get to understand what Tarik's relationship with the others is except a friend and rejected love interest of one. This comes out in the first seconds of the film. The story has elements of Islamic mythology and superstitions from Turkey, but it's hardly referenced in a way that a non-Islamic myth knowing audience would understand. The acting is awful and the dialog is even more so. The subtitles in English were insultingly bad. Since we speak Turkish, we just ignored the subtitles and suffered through the original dialog. The animation, done by supposedly one of the best animators in Turkey, was actually very good. The opening credits show was very good. But what the animator was doing on this film I'll never know. Most every scene begins with the camera placed at the ceiling level, giving a perspective of the room and then pans down to eye level. I'll repeat that, almost every scene. One great contrived scene has a woman going to the market and listing everything she's planning on buying, "Bread, and eggs, and some chocolate for myself." Another has three friends sitting precariously on top of a locomotive just, you know, for a chat. Ridiculous is too kind a word.See it if you're a fan of schlock cinema and confusing plots and bad lines. Or if you're really masochistic, watch part 2 and don't forget to check out the poster for his latest film Bir Cin Vakasi. Worth a look for a good laugh. Absolute dreck.

sserhata Actually I was surprised when I read the other comments. Everybody is concerning about bad script, bad actors, disturbing effects etc. But i have found "388@0" successful. It has a script that fits to "Kairo"-"Pulse". But more than that, it has some cultural components as "djins". They are evil spirits that they can not effect human life directly. But Turkish culture has a lot of stories about djin attacks to human life. The name of the film "DaBBE" refers to "dabbet-ul arz" of the Islam. "Dabbet-ul arz" is Arabic and means "the one that walks on earth". It is mentioned in the Qoran (the holy book of Muslims). It will come to earth as one of the last signs of the Armageddon. And it will tell everybody that who will go to heaven or hell. Because of containing cultural scary myths, "DABBE" has a psychological element to scare audience. That is why it is successful. It takes a original script and adapts it to the cultural myths. So you are not scared of audio/visual effects but deep in your brain, the script makes you scared. But, yes actors and actress are so bad. One more thing to mention. The characters have some e-mails or phone calls after the first death. The subject of the e-mails and the phone number of the dialer is shown as "388@0". When you look this in the mirror. You see "0@88E" = "D@BBE"

olefin This movie is sooo bad that it is good at the end. It'll probably become a cult movie, I have friends who have seen it >3 times, just because it is so much fun. From the screenplay to the acting, everything is so mind-blowingly poor, too poor to be explained by lack of money. Well, it looks like all the money was actually spent for the opening credits, but that is another story. What makes the movie beautiful is that it wasn't meant this way, Dabbe takes itself seriously, it wasn't meant to be funny. I think it is a must see, although at more than one scene the stupidity of the main character made me want to turn off the whole thing. Hang in there, it is worth it!

Cihan Cevik I think this movie could become a legend as The Ring.Because it has got that spirit,it makes you nervous and scares successfully.If everybody will give this movie a chance which it deserves,i am quite sure they will be satisfied.It is called horror movie and it is pretty scary.I am sure this movie is going to be a worldwide movie not a local Turkish trial.At least this is my idea after seeing this movie few hours ago..My Friend Comments ; Hi, Horror movie fans, hmm! definitely interesting and damn it uncanningly freaky....hey if its not that successful when its released, at least its better then Okul(School) and Buyu(The Spell), cos they sucked!...
