Bad Cat

Bad Cat (Kötü Kedi Şerafettin, 2016) is a Turkish adult animated comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Forget cute kittens. Şerafettin is a foul-mouthed, hard-drinking street cat from Istanbul who settles every argument with claws.

Drawn for grown-ups and adapted from Bülent Üstün's comics, the film follows one chaotic day as Şerafettin clashes with his own son, stumbles through brawls, benders and a love affair, and drags his whole neighborhood into the mess. Uğur Yücel and Demet Evgar lead the voice cast, with Ayşe Ünal and Mehmet Kurtuluş directing.

This is a rare thing: a full-length cartoon that is rude, cynical and genuinely funny, soaked in the gallows humor of the Istanbul streets. If you are tired of polished family animation, it scratches exactly that itch. Stream Bad Cat (2016) online on iFILM.
