comment
Baskın (Turkish for "raid") is a 2015 Horror Film by Turkish director Can Evrenol. It follows a group of five cops who, after roughing up a waiter in a rural diner, get a call about some unspecified crime in the town of Inceagac. The cops end up crashing their van and finding an old, abandoned police station with another cop car parked just outside. Inside this station, they discover it overrun by a vicious, bloodthirsty cult.

Only Sane Man: Seyfi is the only one who doesn't participate in his partners' inane conversations, and in fact, is annoyed by them. Though he shares this role with Arda, who ends up being the real hero of the movie and a messianic figure of sorts.

Expy: Mehmet Cerrahoglu was told to watch Hellraiser and Apocalypse Now while taking inspiration for his role as Baba. He displays the Blue-and-Orange Morality of Pinhead and acts the part of a leader of a savage cult like Colonel Kurtz, the latter of whom he even emulates by splashing water on his bald head. He's also supposed to be based on (or maybe a representation of?) Ahriman.
