This is a really nice romantic movie. Not as scary as the fairy tales I was listening to every day as a child. As in the Hungarian fairy tales, it is pretty normal to cut people into pieces into two or four. Also, putting a body on a stick is a normal sentence.
The fear that the Turks carried must have some true, as when they arrived in Eger, they were sure that even the female population drank blood.
That is why we have the wine called the Blood of the Bull. Egri Bikavér, or Bull's Blood wine.
They are pretty good red wines. If you have a chance, try them.
On August 29, 1526, a major battle took place at Mohács, where the Ottoman army won.
About Transylvania, Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire, it took 150 years living together.

From this picture, you can see Eger in the green area. Buda and Pest, which nowadays is the capital city of Hungary, as Budapest, it was part of the Ottoman Empire.
Várad in the purple area is called nowadays Oradea, in Romania. In the past, it was Nagyvárad, in Hungary.
Although Eger was not part of the Ottoman Empire in the beginning, there is still a minaret in Eger.
Kethüda Minaret of Eger
In Budapest, still nowadays, you can visit several of the heritage of that time, like the famous spas:
Király Gyógyfürdő (Horosz kapu)
Rudas Fürdő (Jesil direkli)
Veli bej fürdő (Veli bég)
Rác Fürdő (Kücsük)
The Mosque of Pasha Qasim, which is also in Hungary, is one of the main symbols of the city of Pecs.
