Logan D Five officers receive a call for backup from cops who have gon to a town known for strange rumors. Hilarity ensues. An impressive debut from Evrenol, who went on to direct Girl with No Mouth. This film is visually bold and atmospherically oppressive, favoring mood over clarity. Mehmet Cerrahoğlu’s portrayal of “The Father” is haunting and physically uncanny. The deliberate pacing might be an issue for some but I found the movie mesmerizing. Not for the squeamish Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/13/25 Full Review Gabriel T I could notice there was a lot of work and good ideas behind it, but it lacks tension and the characters are not charismatic so I couldn't care about the danger they were facing, especially the main character. The movie focus on gore, not fear, (it isn't necessarily a problem), but using weird sexual acts to induce the gore didn't work for me Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/06/25 Full Review Robson C Um grupo de policiais atende um pedido de reforços em um lugar da cidade não muito bem visto. Quando chegam lá, um prédio abandonado, que foi uma delegacia de polícia anteriormente, se deparam com algo assustador. Um filme de terror turco. O diretor aprendeu muito bem com os filmes americanos e conseguiu fazer um filme totalmente original e bastante perturbador. O filme se apresenta, de início, como um terror psicológico, com uma tensão no ar, mostrando situações e cenas tensas e que já deixam o espectador desconfiado. Depois de 2 jump scares, no momento que os policiais chegam ao prédio abandonado, o terror e o sangue correm solto. Não há um desenvolvimento psicológico dos policiais, ficando apenas em estereótipos: o policial machão, o novato, o chefe experiente. Mas quando somos apresentados às pessoas que estão naquele prédio, temos uma das melhores construções de personagens estranhos e perturbadores. O Albergue vira quase censura livre, depois das provações que os policiais passam. Para um representante do terror turco, este é um excelente cartão de apresentações. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Darin W It all starts out pretty uneventful but then takes a turn and another turn and even more to the point that you aren't sure what is happening now and what are flashbacks. You don't really get the hints to what's going on until the end and then it hits you. Literally. Not crazy about having to use subtitles as the movie is in Turkish but still kept me watching. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/28/25 Full Review Anthony H Other than the foreign perspective of a Turkish horror film, I found it completely unoriginal. I won't complain about watching a van scene where the occupants sing along to the radio for an entire song, because, Turks? Who knows. I was fortunate to be able to ff past the slow bits, like when we watch for well over a minute while the antagonist sloooowly enters and takes his seat. Would not recommend. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/05/24 Full Review Chelsea T camera shots were interesting. the story is lacking a bit and leaves me asking about of whys. it went from kind of boring to kind of woah mid way. also, the "leader" was not terrifying in the least... appeared to be an over grown baby with calm demeanor and a padlock necklace. the film isn't scary but has disturbing images. and no one explained the heathen birthed rock taken up the spiral staircase. overall- lots of holes and not very scary.
