A mentally ill psychopath is killing the women he has relationships with. While he is preparing to kill his wife, an undercover police officer catches the murderer.

The director Mehmet Alemdar is a ''Yesilcam'' veteran. Starting in 1970, Alemdar has produced quite a number of films with his company Alemdar Film. Being Semih Evin's assistant in 1972, in later years he worked with Cetin Inanc. This collaboration shines through this film, as it does in many others.The plot: Sirma (Sehnaz Dilan), is young and beautiful woman who has been raped by a pervert. Together with her husband, Sinan (Cemal Gencer), they move to a new place, to erase the bad memories of this incident. However Sirma can not overcome the shock of the incident. As she keeps having hallucinations and nightmares, Sinan, initially being very involved with his wife's troubles, mysteriously begins to move away from her.Meanwhile, the daughter of a rich family escapes home and goes on a trip with her friends. The worried parents alert the newspapers, thinking it's a kidnapping. The lost girl's and Sinan's ways meet. In the meantime, Meric Erkan, who was a prominent figure of the early morning TV shows, shows up with his red jacket and gets involved with Sirma.The film mainly centers around these 4 figures. You can label the film as Trash with a clear conscience. Yet, considering the lack of horror and thriller films in Turkish cinema, it does deserve a certain level admiration. The film is easily more watchable than many of the contemporary Turkish cinema, despite its plot holes and some irrelevant dialog.And also information about Alemdar's same year production Kader Diyelim (1995), which is heavily influenced by Hitchcock's Psycho..

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
