Lady Vengeance is simply beautiful but Mr. Vengeance is truly amazing.... one of my all time favorites. But there are still lots of other good asian movies left to see.....Memories of murder, Visitor Q, R-Point, Wishing Stairs series, Tell me something, Koma, evil dead trap, cure and so on.......:(

R point is awesome. Memories of murder is really really good its more of just a simple cop murder mystery but i really enjoyed it. visitor q comes with the "im takashi miike, im fucked up" seal of approval. Koma is awesome but most reviews say its fairly bad Evil Dead trap is probably one of the few asian slashers i have seen, not bad but nothing great. Wishing Stairs is like......... lesbian asian drama meets ghost stories, awesome. Cure i never got to finish, the movie screwed up like 20 minutes before it ended. Pissed me off cause it started out so good.

My Latest Watches
Sukob -3/10- Complete crap. I cant believe how bad this was (then again filipino's just cant seem to get good cinema down). It has a good concept, good story, good direction, but the execution of all these just blew. Alone - 6/10 - Good but nothing great. Made by the folks who brought us Shutter, this movie provides decent scares but nothing new or special in the story. In fact i was fairly disappointed because from the first 20 minutes of the movie i knew how it was going to end. But, the style was good, acting was good, story was okay and the execution was good. Dead or Alive - 9/10 - It took me forever to watch these movies. I absolutely love Miikes work but i can only handle like, say 1 movie of his a month (if they are in the gozu, audition, visitor q category). This movie was a nice departure from his other flicks and for the entire movie i thought i was safe from a typical Miike mind fuck, but i was wrong. While it was not as bad as his other movies it just totally unexpected and it would be one and a trillion chance that someone would actually be able to predict what happens in the ending the ending. If you are curious.... *SPOILERS* The last screen in the movie is a show down between the good guy and the bad guy. The good guy is bloody as hell because his car just blew up with him in it. So what happens next? Well the good guy rips his own arm off, throws it away, then reaches behind him and pulls out a rocket launcher and fires at the bad guy, while the bad guy out of no where creates a street fighter 2 "ryu" hadukin and fires it at the good guy, then japan explodes. The End*END SPOILERS* a must see. Dead or Alive 2 - 10/10 - After seeing the first one i just had to get the second one. I was expecting an actual sequel to the first, but with Miike behind the wheel i should have known that was not going to happen. Same main characters as the first, similar idea, but still totally different with 90% of the movie being Miikes dark humor. I enjoyed this one more so than the first.

I'd liken Evil Dead Trap to a giallo, great film, and the Dead or Alive movies are a blast. Did you get the box set with all three smacky? I watched Ran again... brilliant movie and one of Kurosawa's best.

"Ghost train" 6-7/10
Pretty good despite all its cliches and lack of explainations. And quite entertaining from beginning to end. But the friendship theme was excruciating...
