visiting this years later and emma your reviews are the closest to how i feel usually to films, thank you for being my favorite creator
Getting ready to start watching it! Pressing "play" in 3, 2, 1...
hope you liked it!
I think anyone afraid of going to hell- should not watch this. This movie will take you somewhere you have never been.
I absolutely love your reviews - very nicely done
I've been super curious about this film, and I'm definitely going to check it out soon :)
great, i hope you like it!
Great review! I really enjoyed this film! I was actually nervous to watch it when I first heard about it.
The director Can Evranol also did "Housewife" which was excellent and more recently he did, "The Girl With No Mouth" which is streaming on Tubi. All 3 of his films should be pretty easy to find and watch.
Just finished watching this excellent completely original horror masterpiece!
Cant see the Elm St comparison but Hellraiser possibly .... either way , a hell of a ride. I wont even attempt to explain it , that is for others . Thought your review though was spot on!!
Thanks Emma will give it a watch.
The makeup effects, the look of the “creepy character” really unique and super creepy. The way they hint at gross out moments. They give you just enough.
Dude, it's his face. He was born like that. No make up.
I was looking for a movie to watch today and saw your video. Great movie, i really liked also great review.
Thanks Vanessa, can i recommend to you The Good Neighbor, I watched it yesterday... so good! its not a horror more of a drama thriller with horror themes.
Thank you i will put on my list!
I love foreign horror films. It's nice to see a horror movie, without having to watch 25 year old "teens" who looked like they just finished a modeling shoot. I haven't seen Baskin, but I've heard so much about it and I'll definitely check it out when I get a chance. Thanks for the in depth, yet spoiler-free review.
No problem, I hope you enjoy it!
Hi Emma Baskın is Great movie 🇹🇷
Have you watched The Void? Great great cosmic horror style and very well done in my opinion.
I think that your Martys meets Hellraiser is very appropriate in describing Baskin. I very much thought that the director was inspired partly by Hellraiser along with the Evil Dead. That overhead "through the ceiling fan" shot did remind me of Evil Dead. The story itself I found to be quite disturbing and bloody (not really my taste), but I was amazed as to how good the film looked and the acting was great. For a Turkish horror film, it was technically impressive and I would like to see what this director does next.
Thats a good call on the through the roof shot! im glad you enjoyed it, even if it was a bit different for you!
But what do the frogs mean, damn it??
I'm half Turkish and my family love this movie
thats great! so good to see some good turkish horror!
finally getting noticed!
Great review great movie!! 🎥
I heard so much about it when it first came out but only just watched finally and definitely enjoyed it
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!
hahah i think everyone has! so many people ask me! I hope i delivered!
I am glad you reviewed it. Keep up the wonderful work. Proud of you!!
thank you!
The same director made a movie called Housewife (2017), which I thought was also very interesting.
👍
Love the "hell" out of this movie. This movie is a trip through the unending hell of the last character standing. Until he is no longer standing and everything repeats. Again and again and again....
I love it too! It screwed my head up& it's like a glimpse of what hell is like. The despair& torment was real! Lots of movies try to have audiences feel as if they're experiencing what the characters are, but they fall short. Baskin was able to deliver the horror& it's always going to be a favorite of mine.
@@lindseyl.7983 I agree totally. That creepy horrible guy toward the end, the director found working at a car wash. Never acted before. He was perfect for the part.
Freakingly disturbing! Good spooky watch!🌵👻🌵
Love this movie it's amazing 😉
Im glad!
Im glad!
Chris here, just wanted to say I love your channel. If you feel like it and get a chance could you review of Splice, Morgan, Island of Dr Moreau, and Unbreakable? love hearing your thoughts on these films, and do you think we might ever see an update version of Creature from the black Lagoon? I look forward to watching your recommended films, keep the reviews coming.
Hey Chris! I am going to watch Morgan! Waiting for it to come out! i'll try note it down to do after the 31 days of horror in october. Thank you so much for the feedback! And Im hoping we see a remake of the creature... but i want him to be in a costume not a mask!!!
I´ve just watched it with my mom, couple of minutes ago! And I swear, the moment he walks over the street, I was like (after mentioning sth. like "Shit, it´s still dark outside", right when he got out) : " Wouldn´t that be great, if he actually time travelled and HE was the guy, they ran over earlier? I think that would be a great ending!!..."
Fucking awesome movie!!....
great review emma!!!have you seen Witching and bitching?
no i havent! but its been on my radar for a while! any good?
its soooo good emma I'm sure you will love it!!
cool i'll have to check it out!
Martyrs or Serbian Film? (The one you never mentioned)
It's Serbian, but she finally did a review on it.
Serbian Film is crap. ☮
I completely agree with you about international horror - not fitting the tried and tested (tired) formulas of Hollywood horror means that there's much more scope for originality!
totally! thats a much better way of putting it then i did! haha
awesome! cant wait for me to be able to get it!
i hope you like it!
I'm going to check it out, thanks for the review
awesome, i hope you enjoy it!
Great stuff didn't we talk we about this in your live stream? Well I remember you mentioning it before. I mainly enjoy my foreign horror films in Spanish or German but how hard can Turkish be to keep up with.
Oh and off topic have you seen new AHS? I think it's got off to a good start in my opinion watched the first 2 episodes last night.
Yes we did talk about it on my stream. I watched the first ep of AHS i thought it was okay, but not sure where it will go.
Well episode 2 gets a little better I think it'll pick up some more.
Obsessed with this movie!!!
this movie spooked me so much 😂😭
Nice one, Emma. I actually left this movie pretty frustrated only because I felt like it wasted what was so brilliantly set up-I think Evrenol’s depiction of hell has to be one of the best we've seen in recent memory and the villain is truly terrifying. Unfortunately, the plot and its characters, I felt, took a backseat to Evrenol's world of madness. 3/5 for me, still very much worth checking out, though!
Hey Ryan, sorry you felt that way. I really liked the characters and the fact it felt almost felt like two different films sewn together!
This movie gave me similar vibes to several different movies, but the most noteworthy are Hellraiser and Hostel.
This movie and its message makes those films look like romper room.
I'll have to re-watch as I have a few questions. What's with the Frog Symbolism? "The frog as spirit animal reminds us of the transient nature of our lives..." What's with the "Dream" sequences? Bizarre but cool soundtrack, they played the song or an interpretation of the theme from The Cannibal Holocaust, did you notice? A bit of a Mind Fuk so have to re-watch. Great review as always. Totally off topic was not impressed with Blair Witch, BS Jump scares that did not work, just didn't do it for me. 31 was fun, more geared to Rob Zombie fans, grindhouse gore.
no i didnt notice the cannibal holocaust reference, thats awesome! im sad you didnt like blair witch, i still havent seen 31 its blocked in my region!
I didn't really see the Hellraiser similarity. I'm a huge fan of the Hellraiser movies, and Clive Barker as an author, which is the reason why I watched Baskin to begin with. There is one scene in the diner with a fall into water (trying not to be a spoiler) that reminded me stylistically of Hellraiser, but I don't feel the big "escalation" is Hellraiser at all. It reminded me more of the movie Borderland. I was actually kind of disappointed in Baskin, overall. I might watch it again, though, just to see if I can enjoy this movie in its own right. Maybe I expected too much with the Hellraiser comparison and I'm missing something?
Hey ! Haven't seen it , does look like a fun watch . No flies on my walls only mosquitos buzz buzz buzzzzzz grrrr why if there is a mosquito in my bedroom when i sleep they always fly around my ears grrrrr ;-) Greets !!
I hear ya! :\
Those flying bastards - the worst (annoying as hell) fear :\
p.s. gladly it's getting cold in the evenings in Russia now..so - no mosquitoes were found yet :)
i hate mosquito! little annoying vampires!
Baskin is a true horror film. So glad I discovered it
I really enjoyed this one too! Great review!
thank you!
I really want to see it. Thanx, Emma....
check it out!!!
I think that Serbian Film is the other requested movie. I also would like to hear your opinion on it
YOU GOT IT! haha
casey havaich that movie is sick. don't believe that there are people who enjoy watching it.
spookyastronauts if you review that please warn people don't compliment it as a good film please.
Still have to see this one!
you do!
def a must see. netflix!!! thanks Emma 😊
no problem! thank you for watching!
siccin 6 da değerlendirirmisin özellikle puanlamarını başarılı buldum siccin 4-5-6
Is the other most requested movie Jacobs Ladder?
nope! but thats up there!
Your lying! She's lying guys.
According to the Bloodbath & Beyond review, a bonus feature on the DVD they watched said there's no real deeper meaning to it and that it's just a cult in the woods. I have a hard time taking the film at surface value, the way the story plays out is too unrealistic and dream-like for me to buy it's just a "real" occurance of a cult in the woods. Especially the ending. I commented about this on their review too lol.
Felicia Pulo yeah I totally agree I was really excited to really find out what's going on but the it turns out he men they hit was the main actor himself......so was he part of the group of cops? or what?
I didnt see it as a cult at all! I saw it more as a gate way to hell. But I can see what you mean.
spookyastronauts My favorite interpretation is that it's a "lucid nightmare." Not a gate to hell, a cult, or anything real, but an exploration of someone's nightmare. And yes, I also gathered that it's a giant time loop, which adds to that interpretation.
Just seen this. It’s weird: it’s well shot, directed and acted but I found it to be gross and not really scary. I guess the scariness depends on how seriously you take the third act.
It is weird! in the best way possible!
Holy hell this is a GOOD flick!. I can watch this over and over and still get creeped out. Gonna watch it again
.
It’s a bad movie stop -_-
Definitely practical costume for sure.
watched it about 2 months ago...totally gory sh*t! xD
The little guy is amazing actor! Effects are - nice (poking eyes out...eeeeuuuuuuuu!!!).
Hellraiser for sure, but effects in HR are unbeatable (that skeleton scene with meat and muscles growing on it - AMAZING!)
Yeah I love hellraiser, i the death scene where the guy gets pulled apart by chains is amazing.
great review . i like it
thanks joe!
This one is really good!
I finally watch "Baskin" today for my day 22 of 31 days of horror and I love it...thank god I've only watch your review and not the trailer and thank you for not spoiling anything...I was shocked at how the movie turns but I just went blank at the ending when the police car hits him....I don't get it.....so was he part of the group of cops or what....I'm so fucking lost
Christopher Yew Xuan Ya, I agree, I'm surprised by how much the IFC trailer gives away.
Felicia Pulo IFC flims basically feels that if they show how gory the flim is....people will watch it but it's the wrong thing to do
Hey! It was a time loop! so the cops hit themselves.
@@spookyastronauts and at the end, the van is empty... which symbolizes that Ardo was able to release them from their purgatory-esque time loop of hell lol
sweet I'm actually gonna watch this in a little bit. love all the movies this one is compared to. caught blair witch last week wasn't impressed at all actually prefer the original so hope this makes up for it.
i prefer the original too! but i thought at least it was scary! sorry you didnt like it!
cool..you convinced me..im usually not into subs ..but i guess ill get over it if its good...actually loved the movie...I saw the devil..and train to busan..
oh awesome! try Thirst next?
spookyastronauts thirst? What year? Ill make sure to look it up for sure. . I was looking all over the place for movies to watch. And I came across your channel. And let me tell you. . I got to much stuff to watch now. Loll. . You just keep dishing out movies. Like crazy. I've been binge watching all your vids. Keep up the good work.
Thirst (2009) :D
such a good film and wonderful review
Thanks Emma
I hate subtitles. That's why I just learn the language rosetta stone before watching foreign movies
I knew you'd like it!
Review the anthology horror film Dead Girls.
I might check it out myself is it on Netflix?
+Random Ross I found it on FrightPix.
Alright I'll have look into that thanks anyway.
2014 or 1990?
+spookyastronauts The 2014 movie.
I would call this movie pretentious. It's trying for a Rob Zombie/Quentin Tarantino vibe with a story trying to take place around a bunch of nonsense. Much like Pulp Fiction with scary people having conversations, and then something happens that places them into a world that's a bit different than our own. But Tarantino movies are usually full of somewhat compelling dialogue that fits into a quirky bunch of misfit characters. I would say that Rob Zombie feels a lot like he's trying to riff on, or rip-off, Tarantino movies, and he doesn't ever really get there.
This movie is trying for something similar, but it just doesn't have the characters of a Tarantino movie. They aren't relatable, nor are they interesting. I know most horror fans love these foreign movies that dare to be not Hollywood. I don't think this movie has a sense of itself. Trying to be something that has already happened many other movies ago. Original? Not in the slightest. Just another Dante's Inferno type idea with characters lacking anything interesting. Characters are closer to Rob Zombie in the unlikable range, and so is the horror and gore.
THATS SHIT WAS DOPE... NOTHING COMES CLOSE... LOL TILL I SAW THE NEW RELEASE OF THE MOVIE "IT".... YEAH i like how BASKIN COVER ALL ASPECT OF THE OCCULT IN THERE OWN VERSION ... BUT IT WAS DOPE ... BASKIN HANDS DOWN STILL ON MY TOP TEN NOTHING SO FAR NOTHING I FOUND HAS ME LIKE... "WHAT".... LIKE "BASKIN"... ITS DEEP... I LIKE HOW THEY COVERD, ASPECT OF THE OCCULT. . SHIT WAS DOPE... IT WAS 10... GIRL U KNOW IT....
OMG what a crazy ending but good story 👍👍
:D
Man I wanted to like this movie. Great ambiance, amazing soundtrack, and good creep factor. However I couldn't get past that when the shit hit the fan, none of the cliche characters did anything resembling neutralizing the threat. They pretty much all ran around in fear until someone of something knocks them out.
That’s pretty much how I felt about it. Most of the evil creepy characters are kind of puny looking, like if you’d all stuck together in a group you could have gone rampaging around kicking people’s heads in.
If this movie could've actually happened and you two would've went through it, you can't predict how they should've fought back, because let's be honest here you would have been scared out of your god damn mind. Trapped in that dark labyrinth of corpses, Satan worshipping maniacal creatures in an orgy of perverted sex, death and torture and being hunted. Your problem solving skills and attempts to fight back would be futile. Let's all be honest here...lol. This was pure unadulterated nightmare fuel!!!!
@@HorrorCollector1974 Very good point/argument here. I cannot deny the truth of your statement, and especially how I myself would respond. I guess my counter to your counter argument is this. In reality, which all movies get some base from so we can relate and transport ourselves, I could see two extremes of character. 1) A very "sheltered" person that perhaps grew up small-town-usa, and never left. Has never even seem a dead body outside of a funeral. 2) Someone who has been completely desensitized to the evils of human nature. Think 20+ year veteran homicide detective in a murder capital city (Morgan Freeman in Se7en). Now in reality, we could assume a very different reaction from these two upon seeing a horrendous crime scene and/or even a horrendous crime in progress . . . correct? Back to my original problem with this movie and its characters. They are foreshadowed, not as harden badasses no, but experienced and having seen/done a thing or two in policing careers. In summation, we spend the first 2 acts being told/shown/lead to believe they lean towards the later extreme, but when the shit his the fan in the 3rd act the act completely like the former. As you said, not impossible to believe based on the crazy nature of their exposure, but in general "good storytelling," perhaps there should have been more time spent showing us that these guys are really just 1step up from traffic cops and are not at all equipment or mentally prepared to properly react to this, or any extreme, situation.
I chose to watch the girl in the photographs over this! those were the two movies I debated between,*sigh* sometimes I'm an idiot
WHATT?!??! nooooo!
spookyastronauts sometimes i make poor choices lol
it didn't mean anything to me it was an awesome hellraiser to me. I loved it
Damn movie, I wish I had never seen it 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢😨😨😨😨

i'll never tell!
Ahh... please tell us
hmmmm,intruiging,any reason why?

im pretty sure someone else on this video guessed ;)
opinions are like onions you have to peel away the layers to get to the truth. no deception here this is the good stuff. if you get a chance take a lick off the hypnotoad first to see the true potential. do it.
