Semum (2008)

Rising from a pitch-black pit of hell, Semum sets his sights on an earthly target: Canan. The quiet, peaceful life that Canan and her husband Volkan dreamed of in their newly moved home is soon shattered. Driven by cruel and malevolent intent, Semum begins a slow and terrifying transformation, turning Canan into something no longer human. As hellish nightmares bleed into reality, Satan’s most loyal servant Semum, takes possession of Canan’s body. Why has this innocent woman been chosen as his target? And will the gates of hell opened for an ordinary human ever be closed?
