So I am a SAW 1 Fan and am Turkish and I heard about that movie, so had to go there. It is not a remake of SAW 1, Destere is a comedy based on the idea that two guys wake up in a room isolated from the rest of the world and they realize they are chained to the wall and can't remember how they came there.
The movie is playing in a village where everybody goes by a name starting with the letter "H". The humor thing is, that this is a part of turkey where most people swallow the first "h" in words. The characters play well and the scenes made me laugh every 5 minutes. Some contain 50 year old jokes, like the buttered corn joke in a Turkish version with a cucumber. The ending is somehow abrupt and the mystery stays unsolved. I can only imagine that this is the chance for a part II.
