Salama and Khalid are a young Emirati couple who move back home from America after the accidental death of their infant child. They move into a large high rise in Ras al-Khaimah and start their lives together. Something just doesn't sit right with Salama. The atmosphere and aura surrounding Ras al-Khaimah is really creepy. A dense fog has settled and looks to be staying. Salama begins to hear and see things. That's when the fun begins.
Djinn gives a great, realistic look at the ancient creatures. It takes from the writings in the Qur'an that mention the Djinn as a separate race from the humans. Us westerners know them a Genies. Though, this movie doesn't really have anything to do with wishes. From what I can gather they represent Demons and beings from the underworld that love to terrify and kill humans.
I recommend this movie to those looking for something different. Tobe Hooper is a great slasher director and this marks a rare occasion when he's trying to be subtle. There are a few snags. My biggest gripe is with their annoying neighbor. The movie has a solid story-line and makes for a good feature. Check it out.In Turkey the movie is known as Cin
The film is the first supernatural thriller film in both English and Arabic languages.
Djinn had a budget of $5 Million
