Sadly Over-hyped
Good movie but grossly overrated
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Well this one certainly qualifies as something of a curio. I haven't seen a lot of Turkish films so I really didn't know what to expect from this one. I guess its primary significance is that it's regarded as a Turkish giallo. And not only that but one that came out several years before that Italian sub-genre truly went into hyper-drive. So I am guessing you couldn't accuse this film of being too derivative of that genre. If you want to be more accurate you would label this as a Turkish take on the German Krimi. These German films influenced the giallo and while they were stylised they were a lot less menacing, more playful. And this film is no different, well that is as playful as a film about a necrophiliac rapist serial killer can be.The story in a nutshell is about a psychopath who murders women. He wears a Halloween mask and monster gloves. His victim's first initials match the first letter of the district they are killed in.I was surprised a little by the salacious plot line and the very westernised women in this one. I wrongly assumed that a film set in 60's Turkey would never allow this. Shows you what I know. The film itself is fun, if a little lacking in the thrills department. This makes it no different from Krimis in general. But I have to say that overall it's an entertaining enough cult item. If you are a keen student of left-field Euro cinema from the 60's you owe it to yourself to at least give this a try.
