6/10
not for everyone but interesting to see the life in the seventies/eighties in Iran
17 December 2016
Made in a language I didn't understand I did give it a try and after seeing it it reminded me somehow to another flick with mother and child being possessed in some way, The Babadook (2014). Being honest, this flick here wasn't really my thing but it never bored me.

It gave me a vision into the daily live in occupied territory. And the way women were treated back then in Iran with "Ayatollah" Ruhollah Khomeini under an extreme and religious way. Just see what almost happened when she didn't cover her hair and was seen on street.

But this is all about some Djinn terrorizing mother and child. What we have is a lot of blah blah going on in the beginning and slowly it moves over in a creepy atmosphere. It even made me jump once. But being low on the possession and having no blood in it or in fact real horror makes it a flick not for every geek walking this earth. But it do shows that countries with Islam as their religion can make horror watchable for everyone.
