My Beloved Monster

About This Movie

So, 'My Beloved Monster' is this peculiar short film from 2009 that dives into the twisted side of human emotions. You've got Professor Cevat, who, instead of keeping it professional, finds himself tangled in a rather messy love triangle involving his son's girlfriend. The atmosphere is tense, almost suffocating at times, as jealousy and obsession bubble beneath the surface. The pacing can feel a bit disjointed, reflective of Cevat's chaotic state of mind. It’s quite raw, with performances that tug at both your heartstrings and your eyebrows. Plus, the practical effects are modest, but they serve the narrative well, adding a layer of quirkiness that’s hard to shake off. Not your usual rom-com, that’s for sure.
