Horror

Director Hasan Karadağ set out to establish a Turkish‑Islamic horror template, presenting “Semum” as its inaugural example. The film follows a woman in İzmir who becomes the focus of a demonic possession, starring Ayça İnci, Burak Hakki and Cem Kurtoglu. Karadağ likens the work to “The Exorcist” and compares İnci’s performance to Linda Blair’s, aiming to elevate Turkish horror beyond previous, unsatisfactory efforts.
