‘Baskin’: Seven Minute Takes Trailer Debut

The buzz is real, Ageists…  Turkish horror film Baskin has been rising in in the western Cinema consciousness for some months now. Check out the trailer right here!

 

WARNING: This trailer is rated for Mature Audiences:

 

A five-man unit of cops on night patrol get more than they bargain for when they arrive at a creepy backwater town in the middle of nowhere after a call comes over the radio for backup. Entering a derelict building, the seasoned tough guys and their rookie junior, who’s still haunted by a traumatic childhood dream, do the one thing you should never do in this kind of movie: they split up. They soon realize they’ve stumbled into a monstrous charnel house and descend into an ever-more nightmarish netherworld where grotesque, mind-wrenching horrors await them at every turn.

This is one Baskin  (that’s “police raid” to you non-Turkish speakers) that isn’t going to end well. But wait! Things aren’t what they seem in this truly disturbing, outrageously gory, and increasingly surreal film whose unpredictable narrative pulls the carpet from under your feet and keeps you guessing right up to the final moment. A wildly original whatsit that reconfirms Turkey as the breakout national cinema of the moment.

On VOD & Opening NY @ The IFC Center on March 25th
Opening LA @ Arena Cinema on April 1st
