07/10/2011 Psychologically disturbing and insightful character study with a main theme so deliciously dark that it dances along with the movie's perverse and desperate aura. Unique thriller that goes beyond the definition of the genre itself. 97/100 See more 01/04/2009 Motherland Hotel is a story of a lonely man. See more 07/31/2008 the best turkish movie. See more 04/21/2008 Based on a novel that stands out in Turkish literature, this movie is considered to be one of the best movies of Turkish cinema, maybe the best one.. Zebercet, a middle aged man runs a hotel, which is an old mension in a small town. He lives there together with the only maid. One day a woman comes and stays for one night, and he instantly falls in love with her. When she checks out, she says that she will be back in a week. He leaves the room the way she left and doesn't let anybody in. He waits for her, he thinks nothing but her and he becomes obsessed with her. One week passes, very slowly, but she never shows up and when he understands that she won't ever come, he loses his mind. This is a drama, but it's more like a horror. It's scarier than "The Shining" because it's real. The man is not possessed by supernaturals, he is possessed by a woman. The building is like a character of the movie and the camera work is spot on. This is one of those great movies that nobody knows about.. See more Read all reviews
