Sijjin

Forbidden love curdles into a curse in the Turkish horror Sijjin (Siccîn, 2014), which you can watch online on iFILM. Öznur has quietly loved her cousin Kudret since childhood — but he has long been, and happily, married to a woman named Nisa.

Jealousy won't let go. Öznur turns to black magic to tear that marriage apart and finally claim Kudret for herself. The spell works. So does something far worse: an evil she never meant to summon and can no longer call off. What started as a love charm spirals into a string of deaths.

Alper Mestçi made one of Turkey's best-known horror films here, the one that kicked off a whole franchise. It leans on Islamic demonology, grimy rural settings and genuinely nasty imagery instead of Hollywood polish. Built for fans of bleak, harsh, deeply uncomfortable horror.
